The level of service Escentral provide is nothing short of impeccable.

In the run up to and throughout the project, Escentral were organised, helpful and knowledgeable on delivering the project. It made things incredibly easy for me to have a light touch as the whole thing ran like clockwork.

The quality of results, the incredibly detailed reporting and analysis is a fantastic tool for the University to make use of as we navigate what our teaching footprint looks like post pandemic.

The Escentral team were brilliant at planning and undertaking a comprehensive week-long survey across our office as well as teaching and study spaces. The team were expertly lead by Jody throughout the week so minimised any impact or issues that required the involvement of LBS staff.

The final report summarising findings and recommendations was similarly of a very high standard and together with a written report an accompanying video report was also included. The detail of the report has enabled The School to make informed decisions regarding optimising our space use during quieter periods and driving energy cost savings as well as assisting us in understanding our space use when planning future capital projects.
Rodney Ardé
Head of Space Management and Development
We’ve worked with Escentral on six space utilisation survey projects, and they consistently deliver fantastic results. They handled everything from start to finish, collecting data from all our teaching spaces during core and evening hours. The analysis they provided, using a comprehensive PowerBI dashboard and presentations, has been key in helping us to understand our space usage and timetabling performance better.

With their insights and recommendations, we’re now taking steps to improve our space utilisation, confident that these changes will bring about significant improvements in the future. We highly recommend Escentral to any institution looking to make the most of their teaching spaces.

System Developer & Space Coordinator
Escentral were pivotal in our recent audit of both teaching and office footprint through most of the estate. Both Ben and his team remained professional, efficient and knowledgeable in their approach during the survey period whilst also providing excellent after care support above and beyond the initial brief. I’d have no hesitation in highly recommending Escentral for all of your space auditing requirements.
