• Integrated Smart Occupancy and Smart Building initiatives to connect
the building's occupancy data (who is where, when) with its building systems,
yielding an additional 10 percent energy savings
• Given their employees the ability to choose the best place to work each
day by engaging in an extensive period of research and measurement to
determine the right mix and right amount of focus and collaboration space,
and encouraging mobility both inside and outside of the building, enabled by
BookIT, a re-labeled version of AgilQuest's OnBoard workplace management

According to Janet Pogue McLaurin, a principal and workplace sector leader
at Gensler, GSA's workplace strategy partner and interior architect on the
project, the renovation is "not about changing the way people work — it's about
changing the way that they use space."
"GSA really wanted to develop a demonstration project that showcases what
works for them," she said. "We know that every federal agency has a different
mission, but they could all glean something from this project that makes them
think differently about space."
"It's not about changing the way
people work — it's about changing
the way that they use space."
