inTEC introduce a modern office work-space for Lets2Share
ABOUT
Lets2Share is an innovative shared letting agency operating in East Sussex providing fully serviced, shared accommodation for students and professionals and more recently offering shared, flexible business working space.
BUSINESS REQUIREMENTS
Lets2Share has rapidly grown its portfolio of properties, locations and services. During the early days of growth, it became increasingly difficult for the team to work whilst on the move and in different locations whilst also having full and effective communication between other team members, customers and suppliers.
Additionally, with an office move planned, Lets2Share wanted to create a contemporary, modern work-space with technology tools to match for the times when they were office based. Lets2Share needed an Office 365 Consultant and wanted a local supplier in Sussex. They turned to inTEC for help in providing the solutions.
SOLUTIONS
inTEC provided Lets2Share with Microsoft Surface Pro devices together with Microsoft Surface docks. Using Surfaces as the core working device provided the full functionality and performance of desktop computers but the complete flexibility to work from anywhere. When on the road the powerful Core i5 processors and Solid State hard drives provide lightning fast performance. They
can easily be converted from laptop to tablet form for quick and convenient note taking, document signing and presentations. When returning to the office, the Surfaces are connected to a desktop dock to provide connection to full size keyboards, mice and multiple monitors and of course immediate integration into the office network for a full desktop experience.
As a Microsoft Gold Partner with key competencies in Cloud Solutions, inTEC has been able to work with Lets2Share to unlock the value in the Office 365 suite. It has provided enterprise featured, cloud based mail services and the latest Office suite of desktop applications. Virtual meetings can be quickly and efficiently organised and can now take place with participants wherever they happen to be. Notes are taken and shared amongst the team with OneNote and slick presentations quickly and easily prepared and presented using Sway.
inTEC provided a wireless network throughout the two floors of the offices to allow users to work ‘untethered’ wherever needed. A modern meeting room has been setup with video conferencing facilities linked to Skype for Business – this can be logged in to by any account, offering flexible and powerful conferencing facilities. Full HD video projection runs throughout the day in the ground floor office space, displaying tranquil scenery for a relaxed working atmosphere but serving a dual purpose as a presentation tool for meetings and events.
“Working with inTEC to meet our operational challenges has really helped take the business forward. We are a forward thinking, fast growing and dynamic business and we need technology solutions and partner to match. Our operations have been transformed as a result of the technology and support provided by inTEC– We have really seen the impact in reduced costs and our customer service has taken a big step forward. We are now looking forward to taking the next steps in our technology journey.”
Matthew Bates, Operating Director at Lets2Share commented:
OUTCOMES
The benefits have been many. The team now have complete flexibility in where they work meaning more time can be spent in front of customers. This has also reduced travelling time and expense significantly. This has allowed for a complete rethink of the working office resulting in less permanent desk space needed to achieve a greater level of productivity, which in turn has resulted in around a 25% reduction of office overhead. With the opportunity to provide modern, serviced desk space to businesses, Lets2Share has also been able to generate revenue from what was previously purely an overhead. Customer service has also improved with a faster and more streamlined process with previously laborious office base tasks transformed into a slick, efficient and on the spot process.
