RedstoneConnect secures three year agreement with UBS for OneSpace™ Smart Working Solution
RedstoneConnect Plc (AIM:REDS), a leading provider of technology and services for smart buildings and commercial spaces, announces a new three year contract with UBS, the global financial services firm, to deploy the Group’s award-winning workspace management software solution, OneSpace™, into a second UBS London office. OneSpace™ will manage all desks in the London campus with additional scope to broaden its deployment.
The newly agreed Software as a Service (SaaS) contract provides UBS with a flexible pricing model based on the number of desks being managed by OneSpace™, allowing UBS to rapidly add new desks and office locations, as required, throughout their global estate of 788 offices.
The new agreement follows a highly successful six month OneSpace™ pilot at UBS’s Golden Lane offices in the City of London, which demonstrated that accurate analytics, delivered through a scalable software platform, can materially aide space optimisation. UBS has achieved increased occupancy levels and reduced operational costs at Golden Lane, with employees benefitting from a digitally enhanced work environment with real-time workspace management tools that improve mobility and productivity.
The next OneSpace™ installation as part of the new global services contract will be at UBS’s new flagship London office at 5 Broadgate. The building will open shortly and is set to be one of Europe’s leading smart buildings, providing an optimal location to demonstrate the full potential of OneSpace™.
Mark Braund, CEO of RedstoneConnect Plc commented on the announcement:
"This annuity contract win is another significant milestone in our planned rollout of OneSpace™ as a next-generation software solution, bringing to life the material benefits of smart building technology. This expanded deployment for UBS demonstrates OneSpace’s™ capability in both new-build and legacy real estate structures, and across both individual offices and portfolios of properties.
“Early adopters of OneSpace™ have significantly benefitted in the optimisation and productivity of their office space, ultimately reducing operational costs as well as improving work force engagement and working environment.”
