Robin's Annual Office Space Report Reveals Critical Need for Workplace Operations Technology
77% of Organizations Investing in Office Tech
BOSTON, Feb. 10, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- As companies strive to create vibrant workplaces, Robin's annual Office Space Report 2025 reveals that 77% of companies plan to invest in workplace operations technology to improve the office experience.
The report surveyed 400 workplace decision-makers and highlights how organizations are moving beyond return-to-office mandates to building truly flexible work environments.
"Today's companies aren't debating whether or not to return to the office, they're focused on creating purposeful spaces that work for everyone," said Kari Hanson, CMO at Robin.
"The challenge isn't about forcing specific schedules, but rather managing the complexity of flexible work patterns that best serve both the business and employees."
The Office Spaces Report identifies a critical market need for the ability to manage workplace operations so organizations can:
- Transform unpredictable hybrid schedules into streamlined operations
- Provide visibility into office usage and team presence
- Create intentional collaboration spaces that drive meaningful in-person work
Office occupancy is projected to double in 2025, reflecting this shift toward structured flexibility. Meanwhile, 40% fewer companies are reducing their office footprint compared to previous years, indicating a strategic pivot toward optimizing existing spaces rather than eliminating them.
"The 'messy middle' between fully remote and full-time office work requires new solutions. Companies know they're better together in the office. But without the right workplace operations infrastructure, they're creating friction instead of collaboration," added Hanson.
"The world's most innovative companies are actively investing in creating productive, flexible environments that draw teams together."
It's time for organizations to embrace technology and reimagine spaces to better align with how work happens today. From smarter tools to more data-driven office design, modern workplaces must be environments where teams can thrive.
