RedstoneConnect secures three year agreement with UBS for
OneSpace Smart Working Solution
RedstoneConnect Plc (AIM: REDS), a leading provider of technology and services for smart buildings and commercial spaces, announces a new three year contract with UBS, the global financial services firm, to deploy the Group's award-winning workspace management software solution, OneSpace, into a second UBS London office. OneSpace will manage all desks in the London campus with additional scope to broaden its deployment. 
The newly agreed Software as a Service (SaaS) contract provides UBS with a flexible pricing model based on the number of desks being managed by OneSpace, allowing UBS to rapidly addnew desks and office locations, as required, throughout their global estate of 788offices.
The new agreement follows a highly successful six month OneSpace pilot at UBS's Golden Lane offices in the City of London, which demonstrated that accurate analytics, delivered through a scalable software platform, can materially aid space optimisation. UBS has achieved increased occupancy levels and reduced operational costs at Golden Lane, with employees benefitting from a digitally enhanced work environment with real-time workspace management tools that improve mobility and productivity. 
The next OneSpace installation as part of the new global services contract will be at UBS's new flagship London office at 5 Broadgate. The building will open shortly and is set to be one of Europe's leading smart buildings, providing an optimal location to demonstrate the full potential of OneSpace. 
Mark Braund, CEO of RedstoneConnect Plc, commented on the announcement:
"This annuity contract win is another significant milestone in our planned rollout of OneSpace as a next-generation software solution, bringing to life the material benefits of smart building technology. This expanded deployment for UBS demonstrates OneSpace's capability in both new-build and legacy real estate structures, and across both individual offices and portfolios of properties. 
"Early adopters of OneSpace have significantly benefitted in the optimisation and productivity of their office space, ultimately reducing operational costs as well as improving work force engagement and working environment."
