Habital – ING
Financial institutes are facing massive disruption in their core business, on a global scale. Traditional banking products and services are currently being transformed into simplified, online and omnichannel products. These traditional organisations are transforming into future-proof fintech companies. Heavy changes in the core business result in different ways of working, different employee types, competencies and workplace activities.
Purpose
Often, the workplaces don’t seem to be used as intended and therefore show mixed results in terms of activities. This also applies to ING, one of Measuremen’s clients in Amsterdam. One of the ambitions of ING is to get a better understanding of the pros and cons of different workplace concepts for different workplace activity patterns.
These understandings should contribute to the development and implementation of an effective, solid, but agile global workplace strategy. Existing methods, such as observations, interviews and surveys have proven to be useful, but all have their shortcomings within this context.
In a search for the ultimate set of KPIs to measure and monitor the success and effectiveness of their current workplace strategy and how the global workplace strategy should look like, ING initiated over a dozen of innovative workplace-related projects in 2016. The initial scope consisted of approximately 100 knowledge-workers from the internal Facility Management and Real Estate department in one of the HQ buildings. Even before the formal kick-off, the scope was expanded to 300 participants in two different HQ buildings in the Amsterdam area.
