  • Publication number: 20180285791
    Abstract: Various embodiments of the present technology provide for a space optimization tool. More specifically, some embodiments provide for a space optimization tool that uses team collaboration patterns to guide team-to-location allocation planning. Some embodiments of the space optimization tool use social collaboration data that tracks people's communication patterns, such as how frequently teams talk to each other. The social collaboration data can be used to by the space optimization tool to guide how individuals and teams should sit on different locations (e.g., within floors, buildings, etc.). The space optimization tool can create a smart floor layout that achieves desired business outcomes, such as minimizing employee's commute time to other teams, stimulating collaborations between teams, and the like. In accordance with various embodiments, the space optimization tool can create a smart layout by using an optimization model to automatically optimize a target function at global level.
