What is OpenBlue Employee?

OpenBlue Employee, formerly FMS, is a cloud-based workplace experience platform from FM and Johnson Controls that helps organizations manage how employees access and use offices, rooms, services, and shared resources. The platform supports desk booking, hoteling, room reservations, visitor management, workplace services, event coordination, and other employee-facing workplace workflows. Employees can reserve desks, rooms, equipment, and services from web or mobile interfaces while viewing real-time availability across locations. Interactive floor plans make it possible to search by location or workspace type, locate coworkers and teams, and reserve spaces directly from a visual office map. Mobile capabilities include iOS and Android scheduling, QR code check-in and checkout, touchless workflows, automatic release of unused reservations, and immediate desk availability searches. Room scheduling can handle recurring, multi-day, multi-location, and multi-resource reservations along with catering and service requirements. Visitor management provides automated invitations, confirmations, kiosks, badge printing, host notifications, parking workflows, safety inductions, and other controls for managing guests from arrival through departure. OpenBlue Employee integrates with Microsoft Outlook, WebEx, Cisco TMS, sensors, booking panels, and other workplace technologies to create more connected scheduling and service workflows. IoT integrations can capture occupancy, area, and environmental data to compare actual workspace use with reservations and planned capacity. Reporting and analytics can combine booking data, sensor information, space and lease records, maintenance tickets, and financial data to help teams identify underused areas and improve workplace planning.
