HardFM

What is workplace management? It is the set of decisions a facilities or workplace manager makes about a building as a place people work: how much space the headcount needs and what it costs a person, how much of the floor is actually used on a Tuesday, how many desks a hybrid week requires and on what sharing rule, and which contractors are cleared to be on site this week. HardFM works the arithmetic behind those decisions on the page, free, from your own figures, and keeps the record behind them for $24 a month.

HardFM works the arithmetic a workplace team has to produce before it can argue about a floor, and then keeps the four tables that arithmetic came from. The three free worksheets take your own headcount, desk ratio, areas, allowances and attendance counts and return what a facilities or workplace manager otherwise estimates: how much space a headcount needs and what it comes to per person, how much of the floor is actually used once the counts go in, and how many desks a return-to-office rule needs on its busiest day rather than its average one. Each one computes on the page with no account. The paid plan keeps what the worksheets describe: the inventory of floors, rooms and desks with their areas and uses; the desks with shared and assigned marked and each booking as one person on one desk on one day; the attendance week by week; and the contractors cleared per building with their insurance, induction and expiry dates.

Who it is for: Built for facilities and workplace managers running their own floors, desks and site access only
