Interesting results from the Q1 2022 released from RICS - It's becoming abundantly clear that data insights can drive increased efficiencies across multiple aspects of FM operations. As PEGO is a data and technology company that helps FM leaders develop insights into their day-to-day operations, we could not agree more!

The latest RICS Facilities Management Survey has shown that despite inflationary pressures on the market, a concerted effort to improve how data is used within buildings can help improve buildings’ energy use and support businesses in decision-making.

The hottest topics at SMART BUILDINGS 2022 last week centred around personal experience and wellbeing. These trends are important both for current workers returning to a post-pandemic hybrid workplace and for prospective top talent, looking for the best collaborative work environment.

According to Sir Stuart Lipton of Lipton Rogers, “factory farming” office environments are firmly being replaced by “free-range” approaches. To be truly people-friendly, buildings need frictionless entry, room availability, and knowing if colleagues and friends will be around. But they require more than that.
According to a research report by Kastus, 84% of workers are not confident about hygiene and health at work, with major concerns arising from dirty toilets, rooms, and work areas.

Booking systems and workplace occupancy solutions alone cannot provide full confidence around these issues, and whilst user surveys offer useful snapshots, they provide a very limited understanding of the real-time utilisation and status of the workplace.

We were pleased to confirm that PEGO’s next-generation sensor technology provides the right solution for the offices of the future. By deploying Pods of smart sensors that include Machine Vision, you can transition towards automated demand-driven soft services, creating a cleaner, tidier, and more hygienic workplace, whilst saving on water consumption, carbon emissions, and costs.

Better Workplaces at Lower Costs

23/02/2022

Kurt Kuempel, VP of US cleaning company GSF in www.buildings.com believes that the four greatest challenges in hygiene that FM Managers face - whether using in-house teams or outsourced, are:

1 - Lack of consistency between cleaning shift teams and individuals and no common quality standard of cleaning, or use of equipment and products.
2 - Client concerned over the infection and the need to prioritize high touch areas and reduce wasteful, unnecessary cleaning.
3 - Attracting better cleaning talent by the role of promoting efficiency, safety, sustainability, and career development, making cleaning more dynamic, successful, and rewarding.
4 - Stopping aging, damaged, or difficult to operate equipment means staff use alternative methods of cleaning which impacts consistency and safety, unless effectively monitored.

Work smarter, not harder is the key

While hard work is commendable, to limit burnout, lapses in cleanliness and the risk of injuries and illness, it is important to work smarter.

Targeted, effective cleaning, correctly assigned using smart workplace hygiene technology, promotes best practices and quality, consistent cleaning performance.

This in turn reduces infection risk and makes cleaning teams work more dynamic, more enjoyable, and perform to higher cleaning quality standards.

PEGO’s fully integrated solution for smart workplace hygiene combines multiple sensors in a single device. More quality data is collected, and real-time processing gives tangible efficiency gains across multiple areas of facilities management.

Our sensor Pods monitor occupancy, footfall, surface temperature and much more, and yet are unable to capture an image when a human is in the vicinity, which is why we say that we have the best policy in the world to protect your personal data:
We don't collect any.
Furthermore, this unprecedented level of information about the workplace provides efficiency gains across multiple aspects of facilities management, which enable you to:
- Reduce costs
- Make better-informed management decisions in real-time
- Reduce environmental impact
- Improve the user experience
- Improve the work environment for your cleaning operatives

Solutions that have true longevity

PEGO Pods are the first building block of our Smart Workplace Ecosystem. Whilst many solutions solve a time-limited problem (such as social distancing and post-pandemic space utilisation) PEGO is building the artificial intelligence that powers the Smart Workplace of the future.

How do you empower your cleaning operatives?

The cleaning and hygiene industry provides a vital service to the economy, ensuring that our workplaces, hospitals, schools, transport, and public spaces are clean and pleasant to use.

The industry directly employs over 957,000 people. If occupations that involve cleaning and hygiene across other industries such as public services and hospitality are included, the total number of individuals working in the industry can be expressed as 1.47 million. This equates to approximately 5% of the UK workforce, which is similar to the Transport and Storage Sector. The cleaning industry can therefore be considered a top ten employment industry in the UK.

The industry continues to grow, with a reported 66,420 businesses operating in 2020, up from nearly 60,000 in 2016. Nearly nine in ten (88%) are micro-businesses, employing less than ten individuals and 99% of businesses are private firms.

Today, 19th November 2021, is World Toilet Day, which this year highlights the importance of sanitation and hygiene to drive improvements in public health, gender equality, education, economic development and environmental protection.

This year’s theme-specific theme is ‘Valuing Toilets’. According to the latest WHO/UNICEF Joint Monitoring Programme (JMP) report, progress on sanitation and hygiene is badly off track for the 3.6 billion people currently without safely managed sanitation.

In our western culture, we often take for granted the excellent toilet sanitization and hygiene we enjoy at home, at work and in public, and it would be good today for us all to consider giving to and supporting good causes like “toilet twinning” and sponsor the provision of what we take for granted to the 3.6 billion at who risk huge health issues through lack of safely managed sanitation.
