OpenBlue Workplace vs. Eden Workplace

OpenBlue Workplace, formerly FMS, is a modular integrated workplace management system designed to centralize the management of facilities, real estate, space, assets, maintenance, sustainability, and workplace operations. Developed by FM, now part of Johnson Controls, the platform is built to adapt as an organization's portfolio, operating processes, and workplace requirements change. Space management capabilities give facility and real estate teams visibility into occupancy, assignments, workspaces, and utilization while supporting bidirectional connections with AutoCAD drawings and Revit models. Strategic scenario planning lets users model expansions, consolidations, reorganizations, floor reconfigurations, and other potential changes before implementing them. Facility maintenance functionality supports corrective and preventive maintenance, technician management, employee service requests, configurable workflows, notifications, floor-plan visualization, and SLA reporting. Asset management maintains records for furniture, equipment, warranties, condition, ownership, depreciation, vendors, and physical locations across the portfolio. Real estate management centralizes lease agreements and provides visibility into expiration dates, rental costs, occupancy, portfolio performance, and opportunities to consolidate or repurpose underused properties. Sustainability and energy management tools track metrics such as energy consumption, water use, greenhouse gas emissions, recycling, and waste while supporting financial analysis of sustainability projects and building certifications. Move management automates individual and organizational relocations, while project management tracks estimates, approvals, vendors, budgets, milestones, schedules, and project closeout. Workplace analytics provides multidimensional reporting on measures such as average and peak utilization, employee attendance, departmental utilization, costs, and savings.

Introducing a software solution that streamlines the process of desk reservations for employees. This innovative platform allows for the allocation of both permanent and hybrid workspaces, offers wayfinding assistance for staff, and ensures compliance with social distancing protocols to maintain a safe work environment. It also enhances office security by allowing visitors to check in, agree to NDAs, and print badges upon arrival, as well as checking out when they leave. Moreover, our software enables employees to pre-register their guests, thus optimizing time management. Service requests can be efficiently sent and monitored through Eden Workplace, where employees can submit various tickets for assistance. IT and workplace managers benefit from having the capability to organize and oversee all requests from a centralized dashboard. With the room scheduling feature of Eden Workplace, planning meetings becomes more efficient, allowing users to reserve conference rooms, manage meeting check-outs, and seamlessly integrate schedules with Slack and Google Calendar.
