Value Creation:
eLinear’s iOffice solution is an integrated approach to technology that is focused on delivering the key services and experiences that meet the needs of both owners, tenants, employees and business centre operators alike.
Owners and operators would you like your tenants to be able to purchase services more regularly and efficiently, whether on or off-site? Would your business be more profitable if you could make your space easier to manage with less downtime on changeovers?
This is possible with eLinear’s iOffice Solution, by carefully planning the service delivery requirements during the concept and design stage. It is possible to provide a wide array of services that are integrated and intelligent enough to enable a new tenant to become operational in half the time it traditionally takes. You are able to provide tailored solutions for security, concierge, parking and ancillary services that can add valuable incremental revenue at minimal cost and with greatly increased customer satisfaction, thus positively impacting the revenue psf.
To achieve this, all technologies need to plug into a single converged network. Whether you are thinking about letting space, providing IT and telephone services or enabling your customers to access other services within the development. We are able to push data in real-time to key decision makers to enable them to make immediate decisions and maximize opportunities to do business. Our approach enables you to obtain the highest possible value from the infrastructure investment and the integration of systems is the key to defining, refining and capturing revenues through technology

Where are the cost savings from investing in a converged infrastructure?
Many businesses believe that technology provides an edge against their competition; however, traditionally the focus for investment is in the sales, procurement and operational sides of the business and not on the efficiency and management of the real estate portfolio. Some time ago, Cisco Systems realised that a significant amount of their resources we tied up in the management od Real Estate and that they we not utilising or managing their office space effectively. They began a study to understand how they could design their facilities more efficiently, make them more flexible and user friendly and become a more responsible company with respect to their energy and space utilisation.
By using their own IP technologies and engaging key stakeholders earlier in the design process they recognised the opportunity to meet these needs and where able to achieve the following results in June 2005.
| Cost Reductions: |
| Cable Infrastructure |
– 50% |
| IT Infrastructure |
– 55% |
| Furniture |
– 45% |
| Space Demand |
– 50% |
In addition to this, the employees using these spaces provided the following feedback.
Tenant Experience: |
Preferred new environment |
+77% |
Experienced improved communications |
+ 62% |

Can your employees or tenants work anywhere, anytime?
Over the last decade, technology has impacted the workplace and many studies have been carried out on space utilisation. Below is a typical example:

A feature of the reduced-paper, ICT-based working environment is that, through telecommunications, the office can be anywhere there is access to a network and a growing proportion of work can be done at any time.
This also has an impact on offices and support services, which are increasingly expected to function outside "normal" working hours.
Third party facilities:
Extending the concepts of flexible work-space and shared facilities, a new trend is emerging: the use of third-party owned and run space. Serviced offices have been available for some time, offering flexible access to desks, offices, meeting rooms and support services. The virtual office takes this idea one stage further and provides a technology-rich environment with access to the public telephone network, internet and corporate systems.
