Digital Workplace and UCC - how modern communication is changing the work environment
Just a few years ago, “workplace” meant a physical office, a conference room and a landline phone. Today – it’s a flexible space, supported by technology, where teams work together, even if they are separated by 500 kilometers and several time zones.
That’s why more and more companies are implementing the concept of Digital Workplace – a technology-driven work environment that supports collaboration, communication and productivity, regardless of location. And its foundation is Unified Communications & Collaboration (UCC).
What is UCC and why does it matter?
UCC (Unified Communications & Collaboration) is an integrated communications environment that connects:
video conferencing,
team chat,
screen and file sharing,
room reservation systems,
AV device management,
Interactive whiteboards and touchscreen monitors.
In short, it’s everything you need to work effectively as a team, in one cohesive ecosystem.
How does the UCC support the Digital Workplace?
Occupancy monitoring and BMS integration - digital workplace in the office
Digital Workplace is also about data.
Modern UCC environments can be integrated with systems to monitor room occupancy – through occupancy sensors, access systems and booking data. As a result:
Office managers know which spaces are being used and which are not,
The number of rooms, desks or resources can be optimized,
and employees easily find a free place to work or meet.
In addition – it is possible to integrate with the BMS (Building Management System), which allows you to control climate, light and energy according to the actual use of the space.
Efficiency, economy and comfort – from a single, intelligent system.
Digital workplace - examples of UCC applications in practice
