Seamless Transition to Maptician for a Leading Financial Services Firm

Setting the Stage
A financial services company with approximately 700 employees, headquartered in New York with 10 office locations, needed to modernize its workplace management tools. With their previous platform expiring, they required a solution that could be rolled out quickly while still delivering flexibility, scalability, and long-term value. The Associate Director of Facilities and Real Estate served as the primary point of contact throughout the evaluation and implementation process.

Obstacles on the Road to Modernization
The organization faced several obstacles:

• Planning Blind Spots: Managers lacked scenario-planning tools to model seating arrangements and forecast departmental changes.
• Frustrated Employees: Staff wanted a simple, intuitive way to book desks, but the existing platform was clunky and inefficient.
• The Ticking Clock: With their old system’s contract expiring in just one week, the company needed a seamless transition with zero downtime.
