LoRa Facilities Management Washroom Monitoring
SpringCT partnered with a renowned facilities management company to automate washrooms usage monitoring for timely cleaning and replenishment of supplies. The objective was to provide the best experience for washroom users by always ensuring clean washrooms and availability of toiletries.
The employees of a multi-building office complex often complained about bad and unhygienic washroom condition and lack of toiletries like soap. The facility manager wanted to alert the restroom attendant when any particular toilet needed cleaning.
SpringCT, by leveraging its LoRa and LoRaWAN expertise, developed a LoRa powered platform by utilizing ChirpStack network and application servers to track washroom usage efficiently and accurately. By counting the number of times, the washroom door is opened and closed, platform provided real-time data insights required for facility management. This system not only ensured a cleaner and more hygienic washroom environment but also optimized janitorial schedules, reducing operational costs.
