"Positioning Data" to Reduce Stress: Visualizing the Workplace and Quantifying Productivity

This presentation explains the strategy for "Beacapp Here," an indoor location information service for businesses, which aims to visualize not just location information but also "positioning data" encompassing people, objects, and robots. The platform, launched in 2014, was revamped in April 2024, reducing operational, maintenance, and security burdens, as well as ongoing risks and alleviating concerns. It has been implemented in 574 locations nationwide (primarily offices, but expanding to hospitals, research institutes, factories/warehouses, and retail stores). The presentation showcases examples of how the system measures operational efficiency and the effectiveness of initiatives through visualization of cart locations and reports on movement and dwell time, achieving savings of 271 hours per month for 100 employees and 2520 hours per month for 700 employees. The potential for stress reduction and improved employee retention through monitoring attendance is also mentioned. The presentation also introduces a BCP (Business Continuity Plan) function that notifies the number of people at a location/floor via earthquake early warning integration.
