Kristiania University College Uses BLDNG as a Workplace Analytics Provider to Optimize the Use of Its Campuses
Kristiania University College is on its way to becoming Norway's largest private university college, with 18,000 students across campuses in Oslo and Bergen. HK offers studies across a wide range of fields, including health, design, communication, technology, management, marketing, and more.
With the growth in student numbers and facilities, HK needed to assess whether they had sufficient space and if the facilities met the college's needs.
A six-month pilot and trial period of sensor technology and BLDNG's workplace analytics platform led to a full rollout of BLDNG’s solution for occupancy tracking and analysis across all Kristiania University College campuses
Kristiania University College and BLDNG Collaborate to Create the Study Spaces of the Future
BLDNG’s sensors and analytics software provide Kristiania University College’s management with a unique opportunity to make informed decisions. By analyzing real-time utilization data, the college can continuously adjust room allocation, optimize planning, and reduce unnecessary costs associated with underutilized spaces. This ensures that the college’s resources are used efficiently while providing students with an optimal learning environment," says Dennis Haffner from HK’s operations department.
How can other colleges use the BLDNG solution?
The benefits of continuously analyzing classroom utilization at a university college are significant. By understanding the use of all campus spaces, it’s possible to create learning environments that support both traditional lectures and modern learning activities. Reducing the number of unused or misbooked rooms ensures a more efficient use of the college’s resources. Additionally, integration with scheduling systems like TimeEdit can allow for automatic room release when spaces are not used at the scheduled time.
BLDNG's software and reports provide the necessary insights for any college to optimize the use of its auditoriums and classrooms, improve the learning environment, increase student satisfaction, and reduce costs.
