FMJ Facilities Management magazine providing industry-specific intelligence to FM and property professionals
According to Pitney Bowes Parcel Shipping Index, worldwide parcel volume is likely to double in the next five years, with the UK showing the highest increase in carrier revenue of all 13 countries in the Index.
Alongside a huge uptake in the volume of parcel volume and spend, post pandemic, the adoption of hybrid working patterns means that FMs need to find ways to enable staff to book / host collaborative meetings in available workspaces and to find desk, office and parking spaces by utilising automation and data capture to enable site governance.
Yet a recent survey by FMJ in partnership with Pitney Bowes found that 20 per cent of recipients are still using manual paper-based visitor systems, which doesn’t fit with their top priority – to maintain a safe and operational environment.
This overwhelming reliance on paper-based systems is causing many respondents bottlenecks, resulting in a lack of efficiently in logging and tracking packages and people coming into the organisation.
The webinar will outline the main findings of the two surveys and what this could mean for FMs, followed by a discussion with a panel of thought leaders into the solutions available to meet these challenges.
Panel:
- Sara Bean, Editor FMJ
- Gary Abbott, Director of Business Development – Pitney Bowes
- Stuart Bushaway, Head of Dealers Operations and FM Relationships – Pitney Bowes
- Wayne Young, – Facilities Manager, Just Eat Takeaway.com
- Simi Gandhi-Whitaker, Strategic Technology Director, Connected Workspace, Mitie
The Webinar will take place on 23 November at 11am.
