Australian commercial real estate firm ISPT is enhancing their employee experience by providing cutting-edge digital technology to access all corporate spaces and amenities -allowing use of a smart phone or watch to unlock doors, access meeting rooms and lockers, as well as ‘unlocking’ digital hardware such as printers.
This ‘street-to-seat’ employee badge technology is powered by HID Mobile Access, and provisioned by onUgo. It will be deployed at ISPT’s Sydney hub initially, with further roll-outs to follow in Melbourne, Brisbane and Perth.
ISPT deployed HID Mobile Access® through its technology partner onUgo, to enable employee badges in digital wallets at ISPT’s office in George Place, Sydney. This is ahead of a larger portfolio implementation that has commenced across a number of ISPT’s flagship office precincts nationally.
This allows employees and tenant communities the convenience and flexibility of using their smartphones and smart watches to access all corporate spaces, amenities and services seamlessly without the need for traditional swipe card access.
ISPT is the first commercial real estate firm in Australia to deploy HID’s employee badge in a digital wallet. The deployment signifies a leap forward in ISPT’s commitment to leveraging cutting-edge technology to enhance workplace efficiency, security and employee satisfaction.
In addition to 24 York St and 345 George St at George Place, HID’s solution has also been deployed at ISPT’s 477 Pitt Street in the heart of Sydney’s Tech Central with additional precincts in Melbourne, Brisbane and Perth to follow.
Aligned with ISPT’s goal of harnessing advanced property technology (PropTech) to provide exceptional experiences for tenant partners, HID Mobile Access — along with the best-in-class technology integration by onUgo — provides seamless, contactless street-to-seat access. By leveraging HID’s innovative approach to simplifying building access management, onUgo enables ISPT and its tenant partners to enhance workplace efficiency, security and end-user experience for all their employees.
