An office operation where space is designed for use on a shared, as-needed basis
Hoteling - An office operation where space is designed for use on a shared, as-needed basis. The workforce literally checks in and out of this office, using and then leaving behind its standard business tools and technologies. This alternative may be used in connection with telecommuting and mobile/virtual office. Office space is configured to employee by re-routing telephone and e-mail. Hoteling offices are typically planned to meet the needs of potential workers at the rate of 4-10 employees to a desk. Within the hoteling office there may be many different office space designs to meet various needs: a conference room, single cubes and adjoining cubes in various configurations. The cubes have a phone and a PC or a docking station. File drawers are available in common areas.
