Smart office ecosystems
No single vendor builds a smart office on its own. This whitepaper maps the ecosystem behind one: the platform, the APIs, the software ecosystem, and the actors and relationships that hold it together. It shares what Mapiq has learned about making systems from different vendors actually work as one.
Main takeaways
Offices are now complex, interconnected systems. Getting them to work as one is a collaboration problem before it is a technology problem.
- A truly smart office needs open collaboration between vendors, not closed off traditional processes
- APIs are the common language that lets domain-specific systems from different vendors interoperate
- Ecosystems depend on their actors, their roles, and the social relationships between them, so keep participation and communication active
Smart offices are built together. Pick partners who can connect.
Technology is evolving faster than ever before, requiring innovative processes that can keep up with the current standards of a future-proof office.
