Sharry Europe s.r.o. - Experts & Thought Leaders

Sharry, a global workplace experience platform built around digital employee badges, has successfully delivered its enterprise solution to London’s new international hub opened by PATRIZIA, a global real estate investment manager. The state-of-the-art mobile access leverages Gallagher Mobile Connect credentials and, through full integration with the Gallagher Command Centre access control system, enhances physical security and significantly improves the workplace experience. PATRIZIA’s international hub  Located in London’s Endell Street, PATRIZIA’s new international hub was opened after an extensive brown-to-green refurbishment that delivers sustainable ‘office of the future’ combining smart building tech, wellness amenities, hospitality services, street art, and flexible workspaces. The five-floor hub brings together PATRIZIA’s 200 UK-based employees. Their access to the existing Victorian building is completely managed through the PATRIZIA App and web-based PortalWX developed by Sharry. The workplace experience platform is fully integrated into the Gallagher Command Centre access control system allowing users to unlock their office doors simply and quickly by presenting their smartphones. Innovative approach If an employee arrives from another office, they can generate a mobile access badge in the app in seconds “PATRIZIA’s employees in London and those visiting from our other offices can enjoy seamless and touchless mobile access to our new international hub in London’s Covent Garden,” said Shreya Sheth, Associate Director, Building Technology & Sustainability at PATRIZIA. If an employee arrives from another office, they can generate a mobile access badge in the app in seconds. There is no need to send a new badge request, pick up the plastic card in person, or wait for it to be sent, and think about returning it when they leave. This innovative approach saves time while strengthening security policy. Next-generation security solution  “We are very excited to be supporting PATRIZIA with their new innovative London office. Their commitment to creating a flagship workspace for the future of work is truly inspiring. It's been an incredible honour to be able to support them with a smart workplace app and integrated access control solution for the space,” said Ondřej Vodňanský, Head of Sales EMEA at Sharry. “We are thrilled to collaborate with Sharry and PATRIZIA to deliver a next-generation security solution at their new London hub. By integrating our Mobile Connect credentials with Sharry's workplace platform, we've created a seamless and secure access experience that not only enhances security but also aligns with the modern, flexible work environment that PATRIZIA envisions,” said Gordon Swallow, UK Sales Manager at Gallagher Security. Enhance experience and operations Beyond mobile access, the PATRIZIA App offers users a comprehensive set of features designed to enhance their workplace experience. To name a few: Reservations: Employees can easily reserve shared workstations or book access to the Health Club. Service Requests: With one tap, users can request any service or maintenance through the app. Guestpasses: The app also simplifies visitor management by allowing users to invite guests to the building and send them a guestpass with all the necessary information. Integrated access control solution  Sharry provides an efficient platform for managing workplace access and offers powerful tools For facility and office managers, Sharry provides an efficient platform for managing workplace access and offers powerful tools for communication and engagement with all users, including the ability to send news updates, polls, and event invitations straight to the mobile app. Sharry and Gallagher's integrated access control solution significantly enhances physical security in many areas. For example, a manager can remotely revoke any mobile or plastic badge with just one click in the PortalWX. Even the end-user can immediately report their plastic card as lost in the PATRIZIA app and thus suspend it. The building operating system Finally, managers can access real-time data on workplace occupancy, enabling more informed decisions regarding space and amenities utilisation thanks to a partnership with Trigrr. The building operating system Trigrr has been deployed in PATRIZIA HQ to simplify system integrations and provide a centralised tool that unifies data, automation, and controls across Sharry, HVAC, IoT and lighting. Thanks to Trigrr BOS, occupants can remotely control office room temperature, adjust lighting, monitor CO2 levels, or launch smart scenarios directly in the Sharry workplace platform. "Partnering with Sharry on the new PATRIZIA international hub is a fantastic opportunity to generate more value by combining all applications and systems into a flexible tool that can adapt building behaviour in real-time according to the needs of the occupants," said Jean-Michel Verhulst, CEO of Trigrr.
