Wireless charging is quickly becoming a must-have for the corporate office. Large corporations across the globe are adding wireless charging to their workspaces to make it more employee and mobile friendly. We often get very similar questions from our customers about implementing this new technology into their offices. Here’s 4 questions to think about when considering wireless charging:
What is the primary goal in installing wireless charging?
Your primary goal will impact where and how many chargers you should be installing in your office. Depending on your goals, you will want to install wireless charging spots in different areas in your office. Here are some examples:
| Goal | Areas to install in |
| Showcase innovation and build brand image | High traffic, client facing boardrooms and reception areas |
| Mobile productivity for employees | Meeting rooms, work stations |
| Create flexibility in workspace | Lounges, common areas and meeting spaces |
What scale of deployment are we looking at?
Are you planning on a step-by step introduction to your company? Are you looking to immediately deploy over your entire organization? Would you be retrofitting into existing furniture or purchasing new furniture? This information will impact how wireless charging is deployed into your space and the timelines for the project.
How are we planning to maintain the technology?
Maintenance is a huge factor that people often miss when deploying technology. You will want a vendor that has a strong maintenance program to ensure the least downtime possible. This is especially important for deploying across multiple locations or a large office building. For example, ChargeSpot Connect has a self-serve maintenance system where you can monitor and track performance of ChargeSpots and get alerts when malfunctions happen.
ChargeSpot Connect helps you track large scale deployments and monitor health of the system.
What is your budget?
Budget is often the biggest obstacle in implementing new technology in the workplace. When determining budget, you should keep in mind your goals, planned scale of deployment and service requirements.
