How can tech help us understand how our school buildings are used, and help support asset performance, wellbeing and sustainability?

The procurement contact named on the official notice.

Scottish Futures Trust Limited has published 3 IT Services notices, about every 24 months. On that rhythm the next one is expected around February 2027.

We currently do not fully understand how the physical spaces in schools and educational buildings are utilised beyond timetabling and term-time considerations, and without full understanding, effective planning and management is not possible.

This has the potential to detrimentally impact many aspects of the building’s performance – for example in terms of air quality, which if not optimal has the potential to spread diseases such as Covid 19.

However if we could understand how our educational buildings are being used, we could make informed decisions on how we plan, invest in, and utilise them to best effect.

So we want to gain an understanding about how people travel through buildings, and how they occupy rooms, spaces and external facilities, and in doing so realise a number of benefits including increased pupil wellbeing, identifying new capacities within buildings for growth and expansion, and improving the learning environment through data driven building management decisions.

So how can tech help us understand how our school buildings are used, and help support asset performance, wellbeing and sustainability?
