Book across locations
Working in Düsseldorf today and Munich tomorrow means switching location in the app and booking there.
High mobility, many locations, little predictability
Where the workforce is rarely in the office at the same time anyway, it is not about administering desks but about reliable coordination.
In short
Consulting and IT companies typically have low attendance rates, high mobility between locations and strongly fluctuating peak days. Door James supports that with cross-location booking, team days, the colleague finder and quotas for parking and meeting rooms, which in this industry are scarce more often than desks.

Features
Coordinate team days
Teams see colleague presence and book next to each other.
Allocate parking fairly
The most common bottleneck in this industry – solvable with quotas and booking before departure.

The real problem is coordination
In organizations with 30 to 50 per cent attendance, lack of space is rarely the issue. The issue is that people travel to the office and find nobody they wanted to talk to. That is exactly what the colleague finder, teams and shared agenda links are for: they turn an individual decision into a coordinated one.
Parking as an underestimated bottleneck
Reports in this industry frequently show the same picture: desks are plentiful, parking spaces and larger meeting rooms are not. Both can be steered with the same logic – quotas, lead times and a check-in requirement with automatic release.
Frequently asked questions
Is Door James worth it with low attendance?
Especially then. The lower the attendance, the larger the space potential – and the more important reliable coordination on the days teams do meet.
How do we handle strongly fluctuating peaks?
Through quotas, lead times and approvals for areas in high demand, plus reporting that makes the real peak days visible.
Can project teams get their own areas?
Yes, through zones with their own colour and optional access rules that can also be time-limited.
Every industry breaks a booking tool differently
Shift patterns, sites, compliance, who is allowed to sit where. Bring the constraint you think is unusual; it usually is not.
