  3. Average occupancy by building and point #. (“Occupied)

    1. Are there spaces that are significantly more or less occupied?

    2. Hint:

      1. Anything with occupancy above 65% is identified as high use.

      2. Between 30-65% is average use

      3. Below 30% is underutilized.

  4. Average # of people by building and point #. (PEOPLE)

  5. Average occupancy and number of people by workspace type.

  6. Activity by workspace type (TYPE)

  7. Conference/Meeting spaces
    1. Compare average number of people to the capacity
    2. Compare maximum number of people to the capacity
    3. Analyze the behaviors (activities/tools) for each meeting room/conference room.
  8. Look at where certain behaviors are happening most often.

Each of these analyses should be its own tab in a sheet (Google or Excel) called [Client - Usability Analysis]

Highlight important insights for the writer/maker to include in the document.

NOTE: After synthesis, it will be important to go back to the usability data and analyze any extra variables/spaces that are important based upon the qual findings.
