Note:

As of 8th March 2021, Our Return to Office template has been updated to The Remote & Office Management Solution template. If you are new to the template please see here instead. If you are looking for support for your app built before 8th March 2021 continue reading the below.

Use the Return to the Office template to manage the new rules related to Covid-19 and streamline all your management processes by utilising technology to enforce, communicate and notify staff. Employees can use the app to book a desk space and ensure they’re complying with social distancing measures. 

The Return to Office app can be configured to allow you to create a bespoke app that reflects your specific business needs.
