Most Common Questions
What exactly is move management software?
Move management software gives facilities teams a structured way to plan, approve, execute, and track office relocations — from a single desk move to a full floor reorganization. Instead of managing moves through email threads and spreadsheets, everything lives in one system: requests, approvals, floor plan updates, work orders, and stakeholder visibility.
What kinds of moves can viewMAC handle?
viewMAC supports individual desk and office relocations, department-level floor reorganizations, new hire onboarding seat assignments, post-construction space reactivations, hoteling and flexible seating transitions, and multi-building or multi-site moves — all managed through the same workflow.
How does the floor plan integration work?
viewMAC connects to your live floor plans through an API with AutoCAD, reflecting every move in real time. Stack plans and department views are updated on a nightly automated schedule so your plan data is never stale. You can plan relocations visually, catch seat conflicts before they happen, and always know exactly who sits where.
What happens to work orders when a move is approved?
When a move request is approved, viewMAC automatically generates every associated work order — IT setup, facilities prep, furniture moves, ergonomic changes — without anyone having to create them manually. Nothing gets missed because nothing depends on someone remembering to follow up.
What is scenario planning and why does it matter?
Scenario planning lets you model a move before it happens. You can build multiple "what-if" floor plan configurations, compare them, and share them with team leads, departments, and management for review and approval — before any physical work begins. Once a scenario is approved, it converts directly into a live move project, eliminating the back-and-forth that typically delays large reconfigurations.
How does viewMAC prevent double-booking a seat?
The move request form includes real-time seat conflict detection. The moment you assign someone to an already-occupied seat, the form will tell you who is currently sitting there — before the request is even submitted. No duplicate assignments, no surprises on moving day.
Does it connect to our HR system?
Yes. viewMAC integrates with HR systems via secure server transfer, APIs, and web services — as frequently as you need — keeping employee records, department assignments, and headcount data in sync automatically. New hires, departures, and org changes flow into your floor plans without manual imports, so your space data always reflects your actual organization.
Can we track the cost of each move?
Yes. viewMAC tracks labor, equipment, and contractor time per relocation, and reports costs by person, department, or project. That data feeds directly into budget planning and internal chargeback processes — giving facilities teams accurate numbers instead of rough estimates.
How does viewMAC work with viewSPACE?
viewMAC and viewSPACE are designed to work together. When a move is completed in viewMAC, occupancy and seat assignment data updates automatically in viewSPACE — so your space utilization reports, vacancy lists, and floor plans always reflect the current state of your buildings without any manual reconciliation.
How soon can we go live?
Regardless of the size of the project, most companies go live within 2 weeks. Our dedicated account managers ensure a smooth, fast transition.
Will costs increase as we grow?
No. Our pricing is per product only and does not increase with growth. No per-user fees, no surprise charges.
Do we have to use AI tools if we don't want them?
No. You control the level of AI in your product. You decide which workflows run automatically and which stay in your team's hands. Intelligence is an option — always available, never mandatory.
