What if you knew exactly how your office space, whether is a meeting room, lecture hall or a study space was being used, at any moment? Ubiqisense turns space data into action, helping universities right-size campus, cut costs and improve space efficiency to increase student experience and retention. Unlock the full potential of your university’s spaces →

Your estate holds millions in potential. Real-time insight shows where. Across UK universities, academic space is occupied just 16–22% of the time, yet property and energy costs continue to rise, year after year. The new Ubiqisense Higher Education Insight Report reveals how real-time occupancy data helps institutions: • Pinpoint where space is underused • Consolidate and avoid unnecessary CapEx • Cut maintenance costs by 20–40% • Reduce energy waste across every building • Build a smarter, digitally connected campus Every square metre you don’t need carries a cascade of cost. Real-time data helps you decide what to keep, repurpose, or release. https://lnkd.in/ek_RJTy5

University estates debates are rarely about estates. Ture Nilsson, Head of Product at Ubiqisense, has seen enough of them to know what they are actually about. "It is very political. People take ownership of their spaces regardless of whether they need them. They have been sitting in that auditorium, that office, that room for 20 years. It is theirs. And that conversation goes nowhere because it is emotional, not evidential. What changes is not a better argument, it is the facts - what the space actually costs to run, and how little it was used last term. When you put that in front of someone, the conversation changes completely. You are not telling them their work does not matter. You are showing them what the institution can actually afford. We have seen that shift unlock decisions that had been stuck for years." Data does not win the political argument. It removes it from the room entirely. 👉 https://lnkd.in/dumNmQaB

This is Ground Truth, a series where we share real scenarios from practice on what occupancy data actually shows. If you have been in this situation, tell us how it played out. This one comes from the field. A team had been complaining for months about the temperature and the lack of space. Facilities got a quote for a dedicated air conditioning unit. Before the purchase order went through, someone checked the occupancy data. Ture Nilsson, Head of Product at Ubiqisense: "They were using that space 30% of the time. So the question becomes, is the problem really the temperature? Then the conversation changed. Instead of fixing a symptom, they started asking whether the space allocation itself made any sense. The costly air conditioning unit did not get installed, and beyond avoiding the cost, they found out how to repurpose that underused room and redirect the team to spaces that actually worked for them." Sometimes the most valuable thing accurate occupancy data does is change the question entirely. 👉 https://lnkd.in/dvd_xu7G
