Facilities
Facilities and workplace teams are being asked to do more with less: reduce real estate costs, support hybrid work strategies, ensure safety compliance, and improve the occupant experience, often simultaneously. RetailNext gives facilities teams the accurate occupancy data and space utilization intelligence to answer all of these demands with confidence. Whether you manage a corporate campus, an office building, or a mixed-use facility, our platform delivers the real-time visibility to optimize your built environment and prove the value of every space investment.
Know How Your Spaces Are Really Used
Conference rooms that are always "booked" but often empty. Collaborative areas nobody uses. Hot-desking zones that are permanently overcrowded. RetailNext tells you how your spaces are actually used — so you can optimize allocation based on reality, not perception.
Occupancy Compliance, Continuously
Fire codes, safety regulations, and capacity limits require ongoing monitoring — not periodic headcounts. RetailNext provides real-time occupancy data across buildings and floors, with automated alerts when thresholds are approached or exceeded.
Build a Hybrid Workplace Strategy With Data
Hybrid work has made office attendance unpredictable. RetailNext tracks actual attendance patterns, peak usage days, and space utilization rates — giving your workplace strategy team the evidence to right-size and redesign your portfolio confidently.
Your Spaces Are Telling You Something. ARE YOU LISTENING?
RetailNext turns occupancy data into actionable facility intelligence — helping you reduce real estate costs, ensure compliance, and create environments that actually work for the people who use them.
Built for the Demands of MODERN FACILITIES MANAGEMENT.
From daily compliance monitoring to long-term portfolio strategy, RetailNext gives your facilities team the data to make confident decisions at every level.
Track how conference rooms, collaboration areas, workspaces, and common areas are actually used. Identify chronically underutilized spaces, right-size your portfolio, and optimize allocation decisions with data — not assumptions.
Monitor live occupancy across buildings and floors. Ensure compliance with capacity limits and fire codes, display live occupancy status for occupant awareness, and manage crowd flow during events and peak periods.
Understand actual office attendance patterns — which days are busy, which are quiet, and how teams use space differently across the week. Support flexible workspace strategies with evidence, not intuition.
Optimize cleaning schedules, HVAC usage, and maintenance windows based on actual occupancy patterns. Reduce operational costs by aligning building services to real usage — not blanket scheduling.
Cloud-based video monitoring with access pattern analytics. Investigate incidents quickly, track anomalies, and ensure building security across every zone — with the speed and visibility that legacy DVR systems can't provide.
Quantify the impact of renovation decisions, space redesigns, and workplace changes. Demonstrate the value of facilities investments to leadership with before-and-after occupancy and utilization data.

Common Questions
About Facilities
-
How does RetailNext measure space utilization across different types of workplace environments?
RetailNext uses ceiling-mounted sensors to measure how conference rooms, collaboration areas, workstations, and common areas are actually occupied and used over time — so you can identify chronically underutilized space and right-size your portfolio based on real usage rather than booking records.
-
Can RetailNext support real-time occupancy compliance monitoring across a large corporate campus?
Yes. RetailNext provides live occupancy by building and floor, with automated alerts when capacity or fire-code thresholds are approached or exceeded, and can display live occupancy status for occupant awareness — across an entire multi-building campus.
-
How does RetailNext help us build the business case for space consolidation or portfolio decisions?
RetailNext quantifies how much of your space is genuinely used versus idle, and provides before-and-after utilization data around any change — giving you the hard evidence to justify consolidation, redesign, or renewal decisions to leadership.
About Buying and Implementing
-
Does RetailNext work with our existing building management and access control infrastructure?
RetailNext is a self-contained sensor platform that integrates with other systems through standard APIs; occupancy and access-pattern data can feed your building management and reporting tools. Our team will confirm specific BMS/access-control integrations for your environment.
-
How do we handle data privacy for employee monitoring in a workplace environment?
RetailNext measures occupancy and movement anonymously — no personally identifiable data is stored, analytics are based on aggregate behavioral patterns, and privacy controls are configurable by region. This supports GDPR and works-council requirements; the system measures how spaces are used, not individuals.
-
What does deployment look like across a multi-building corporate campus?
RetailNext is cloud-native and built on the single PoE-powered Aurora® sensor with simple network setup (one outbound port, no VPNs). Sensors are placed by zone and managed centrally, scaling across many buildings without architecture changes — our team will scope the sensor plan and timeline.
