With some enterprise making the long-awaited journey back into offices and worksites across the country and when restrictions finally ease, businesses will start to think about how they get back to normal, but with normal a ways off, how does business navigate the middle ground?
Organisations need to now consider office building design and how shared spaces are utilised. While cross-divisional employees are learning how to adapt to modern remote working technologies such as Microsoft Teams and Windows Virtual Desktop, there is a requirement for small groups of employees to be present at office locations through these uncertain times. The question enterprise currently face is how to manage regulation, collaboration and compliance? Which staff go into the office when, where do they work, how are customers engaged?
There are several Microsoft solutions to consider, including Shifts. Sitting in Microsoft Teams, Shifts is a schedule management tool that helps you create, update, and manage schedules for your staff. Shifts allows managers to quickly organise employees coming into the office and their work locations.
Another service for consideration is Microsoft Bookings. Bookings is a scheduling tool found in Microsoft Office that allows you and your customers to book appointments with the company. Fully customisable appointments and booking requirements streamline the booking experience. Bookings integrates with a staff members Office calendar to quickly find available appointment times, avoiding double-booking. An easy to navigate front end webpage lets customers find and book appointments 24 hours a day.
Bookings also allows meetings to be conducted virtually via Microsoft Teams. Each appointment booked as an online meeting creates a unique meeting link that is sent to attendees so they can join via a web browser, phone dial-in, or via the Teams app.
