Scenario planning
Test the workplace change before you commit.
Run scenarios for where teams will fit before moving people or making a lease decision. Kadence SpaceOps brings scenario planning, stack planning, and move management together so you can compare options for your portfolio.
Illustrative scenario: merge Marketing and Sales on Floor 4. Before, Sales works on Floor 4 and Marketing on Floor 5, next to Product. After, Marketing moves down to join Sales on Floor 4. Floor 5 stays in use with Product, and the area Marketing leaves becomes space for next year's headcount growth, with 62 desks freed for reuse.
Stack Planning
Visualize Space Allocation For Smarter Planning
See where teams fit across the space you already have. Compare department allocations and test layouts before deciding what to change. Create office spaces that reflect how teams actually work, and optimize every square foot for cost and performance.
Scenario Planning
AI-Powered Office Scenario Planning Software For Maximum Utilization
Bring a clear comparison to the next real estate decision. Test changes in headcount or workplace policy and see the impact on space, cost, and teams before committing. Model growth or downsizing with lease options, and identify underused areas for reallocation opportunities.
Move Management
Stress-Free Move Management Made Simple
Turn the chosen plan into a coordinated move. Keep employee desk changes and floor layouts connected so workplace teams can manage the move in one place. Plan office moves or employee desk changes all in one place, and link every move directly to updated floor layouts in real time. Delegate moves and assignments to other team members, so managers can seat their own teams.
