Computacenter is a company that provides IT services to organizations all over Europe. They call themselves challengers, innovators of the work environment. What are they working on? Well, among other things, the "digital workplace", a concept that's perfectly in line with Bringme.
On the occasion of Hospital Worker Day, the Geel hospital is installing a Bringme Box. "Installing the box is part of the celebration we're planning this year on 15 May. That day, we'd like to thank all our collaborators for their daily efforts," say Nadescha Turlinckx and René Vanheuckelom, who are with the Communication department.
Students these days know the digital world like the back of their hand. It’s not surprising that they’re big on online ordering. And it’s definitely not surprising that the most active Bringme users are… students. What is it that draws them to Bringme? We went to student accommodation Liberty Plaza in the heart of London, to ask two of its residents this question.
Leuven, city of students. The tens of thousands of members of the KU Leuven (university of Leuven) are welcome at Limel, for all their audiovisual needs. Providing good service to that many people is no mean feat. That’s why Limel called for reinforcement: these days the Bringme Box is standing in as a lending service. That means customers can now pick up equipment and bring it back all throughout the day, while Limel employees' to-do lists have been shortened substantially. And those aren’t even all the advantages.
In bustling East London, there's a very special multi-tenant building. Here East's mammoth campus takes up no less than 1.2 million square metres and was built as a media centre for the 2012 Olympics. Meanwhile, the location has been transformed into a breeding ground for innovation and creativity. As "coincidence" would have it, a Bringme Box was recently installed. We paid them a visit.
Safety has never been more important than today. In big cities, especially, it tops the list of priorities. It's an ongoing search for the safest way of managing buildings and the procedures are constantly being finetuned. We talked to an experienced building manager from London about the safety challenges "multi-tenant building" managers face and about how technology can help them in their task.
