Pandemic-proof commuting like Sodexo

Sodexo created an internal group to pilot innovations which would improve workplace experiences.

Before they went to the market to source a solution, they developed a clear brief of what functionality they needed.

Having researched the market, Sodexo selected Wayleadr as the stand-out solution. Sodexo rolled out Wayleadr with a focus on flexibility, allocation and availability.

Flexibility was introduced to allow staff to book space before 1pm on the day prior to needing the space. This was a key change which means the parking lot is now more responsive to flexible working patterns.

Prioritization was still given to certain senior staff. Yet, employees can check on the day to see if any last minute spaces have popped up. This ensures a robust and transparent allocation while maximising availability.

One standout for Sodexo was Wayleadr’s ability to change in real-time. Having prepared extensively for launch, at the last minute senior management decided they wanted to change the configuration. Sodexo were very impressed at how seamlessly this could be done, with the click of a button.

A final key piece of the puzzle for Sodexo was being able to access both real-time and historical data on parking usage. Prior to Wayleadr, all decisions about the car park were being made anecdotally. Wayleadr gives Sodexo the information needed to make key decisions about their car park moving forward.
