How it works?
Start with the right complexity level
Pick L1–L5 based on how much admin/facilities time you want to remove and how consistent you need service across locations.
Map to devices
+ OS workflows
Use smart lockers/kiosks/modules combined with a central operating layer to run access, inventory, and service flows.
Measure impact
(hours → FTE)
Each level includes a conservative model translating daily operations into yearly hours saved and FTE equivalents.
L1 – Low Complexity
Self-service access to office essentials, zero reception or admin involvement
In office buildings, a surprising amount of time is spent on small but frequent tasks: handing out office supplies, printer ink, snacks, uniforms, umbrellas, or shared assets. These actions interrupt reception, office managers, or facilities teams without adding business value.
This category of solutions enables controlled self-service access to basic office items, allowing employees to retrieve what they need independently. Core office workflows remain unchanged, but interruptions are reduced and access can be extended beyond standard office hours. Deployment is fast and low risk.
This level is especially useful for corporate offices, business parks, and campuses looking for immediate operational relief or a first step toward automation.
What it solves for the business
Removes admin and reception staff from repetitive handover tasks
Reduces interruptions for facilities and office managers
Enables 24/7 access to essentials
Improves accountability through access logging
How it works (simple explanation)
Employees access smart lockers using a badge, QR code, or internal credentials. User and item log each pickup. No active dispensing or mechanical movement is involved.
Lower admin workload
Faster access to essentials for employees
Minimal CAPEX and fastest deployment
Example solutions
Efficiency Calculation
In corporate environments, admin and facilities teams repeatedly interrupt core work to hand out supplies and manage small requests.
A conservative operational baseline:
~40

~0.17 FTE
per solution/ per location
What this means in practice: Each unit removes a constant background workload from office admins, equivalent to a permanent part-time role.
L2 – Medium Complexity
Automated dispensing of beverages and shared consumables
As offices grow, staff time is increasingly spent managing beverages and shared consumables: hydration stations, tea concentrates, electrolyte mixes, or team refreshment points. These tasks scale poorly and require ongoing attention.
This category introduces active dispensing modules that automate preparation, portioning, and availability of drinks and consumables.
This level is ideal for medium to large offices, campuses, and shared workspaces.
What it solves for the business
Reduces facilities involvement in beverage management
Ensures consistent availability and portioning
Lowers waste and refilling inefficiencies
Supports employee wellbeing initiatives
How it works
Drinks and consumables are dispensed automatically through active modules with level detection and refill alerts. Usage is logged for optimisation.
Partial replacement of facilities support workload
Better resource utilisation
Improved employee experience
Example solutions
Efficiency Calculation
Facilities teams frequently manage beverage stations throughout the day.
A conservative operational baseline:
~60
dispensing interactions/ day
~4
minutes manual handling per interaction
~250

~0.35–0.4 FTE
per module
What this means in practice: Each module replaces a significant portion of facilities or office-support workload related to refreshments.
L3 – High Complexity
Automating structured office services and workflows
Many corporate workflows are structured, repetitive, and admin-heavy: reception check-in, pantry operations, office supplies retail, internal vending, coffee bars, IT accessories distribution, benefits redemption, and secure document pickup.
This category automates entire office service workflows, reducing reliance on manual execution while maintaining security and traceability.
What it solves for the business
Reduces reception and admin staffing pressure
Improves service availability without headcount growth
Standardises employee experience across offices
Improves security for sensitive items and documents
How it works
Multiple components (identity validation, dispensing, logging, billing) are orchestrated into an end-to-end automated workflow.
Replacement of full-time admin or support roles
Faster service for employees and visitors
Predictable operating costs
Example solutions
Efficiency Calculation
Structured office services require consistent admin time per interaction.
A conservative operational baseline:

~1,860h

~0.9-1.0 FTE
per solution
What this means in practice: One system replaces approximately one full-time admin or office-support role, while improving service consistency.
L4 – Very High Complexity
Autonomous office service zones
Large offices and corporate campuses operate multiple service areas: pantries, meeting rooms, printing and shipping, and wellness spaces. Staffing each zone continuously is inefficient and limits scalability.
This category enables entire office service zones to operate autonomously, independent of time of day or staff availability.
What it solves for the business
Eliminates zone-dedicated staffing
Improves availability of services across the office
Supports flexible and hybrid work patterns
Reduces operational overhead
How it works
Multiple automated systems are integrated into a single coordinated zone, sharing access control, inventory logic, and reporting.
Replacement of small on-site service teams
Extended service hours at fixed cost
Better utilisation of office space
Example solutions
Efficiency Calculation
Office service zones typically require permanent staffing even with fluctuating usage.
A conservative operational baseline:
~120 interactions/day
~8 minutes manual handling per interaction
~250 operating days/year
This results in ~4,000 manual hours/year.
With ~85% operational coverage and ~90% adoption, the zone eliminates ~3,060 hours/year, equivalent to ~1.5 FTE per zone.

What this means in practice: Each autonomous zone replaces a dedicated office-support team, while keeping services continuously available.
L5 – Extra High Complexity
Use case: Autonomous corporate service networks across buildings and campuses
At the highest maturity, automation replaces routine office-support functions across entire corporate portfolios: office supplies, visitor experience, employee convenience, and internal retail services.
This category enables centrally orchestrated autonomous corporate service networks to operate across multiple buildings, campuses, or cities.
What it solves for the business
Reduces routine staffing across offices
Standardises employee and visitor experience
Enables rapid rollout in new locations
Supports 24/7 corporate environments
How it works
Multiple autonomous stores, lockers, and zones are managed under a single orchestration layer, integrating with corporate identity systems, billing, and reporting.
Replacement of routine office-support teams
Chain-wide scalability
Strong TCO improvement
Linear scalability across locations
Example solutions
Efficiency Calculation
Operating staffed office services across a corporate building requires continuous admin and facilities coverage.
A conservative per-building baseline:
~220 routine office-service operations/day
~6 minutes manual handling per operation
~250 operating days/year
This results in ~5,500 manual hours/year.
With ~85% operational coverage and ~90% adoption, the system eliminates ~4,200 hours/year, equivalent to ~2.1 FTE per building.
Across campuses, this scales linearly.
