MICROSOFT PLACES FLOOR PLAN CREATION
Places Floor Plans Without the Hassle
Transform your existing office floor plans – whatever format they’re in – into fully correlated, production-ready IMDF.
Don’t have the time or patience to create floor plans for Places? Do different locations have different maps – from scrappy hand-drawn to complex CAD files?
Is this a typical starting point? No problem!

Places Add Ons
Microsoft Places helps people decide when and where to work.
Essential extends that experience to cover the other things people need when they come into the office – from catering and parking to visitor access.
Service teams also need an easy way to manage those requests alongside the room booking itself – something Microsoft Places does not make straightforward on its own.
- Provide virtually any additional service: visitor badges, parking, catering, AV services, etc.
- Include request forms with standard booking acceptances
- Give FMs drag-and-drop control over room changes
- Easily create catering options and other services
- Define workflows to notify service providers
- Track costs & cross-charge
