  "summary": "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.",

      "text": "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.

      "heading": "Parking as an underestimated bottleneck",
      "level": 2,
      "text": "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."

  "faq": [
    {
      "question": "Is Door James worth it with low attendance?",
      "answer": "Especially then. The lower the attendance, the larger the space potential – and the more important reliable coordination on the days teams do meet."
    },
    {
      "question": "How do we handle strongly fluctuating peaks?",
      "answer": "Through quotas, lead times and approvals for areas in high demand, plus reporting that makes the real peak days visible."
