Campus Facility Booking

Rooms, equipment and approvals without the double booking.

All use cases
Campus Facility Booking

The situation

Bookings live in a shared calendar with no rules. It accepts two bookings for one room, so whoever walks in second finds the clash, and approvals sit in email threads nobody keeps.

What you end up with

  • Availability and rules in the same place
  • Approvals where the booking is made
  • Utilisation you can actually look at

As an xApp

Out of the box

Every room, piece of equipment and shared resource is listed with its capacity and who may book it. Bookings are checked as they are made, so a clash never happens, and sign-off is part of the same step, not a separate email. Utilisation comes from the bookings themselves, which settles arguments about who needs more space.

  • Room, equipment and resource records
  • An availability calendar that prevents clashes
  • Booking rules by role and by resource
  • Approval where the booking is made
  • Utilisation reporting

What typically gets tailored

The resource catalogue, availability calendar and rule checks come working. We tailor policy, not software: who may book what, how far ahead, for how long, and whether it is charged. If a timetable system owns part of the week, it is connected so no room is offered twice.

  • Your resource catalogue and capacities
  • Who may book what, and when
  • Your timetable system
  • Charging or cost recovery
