360° connectivity on the other side of the globe

The challenge

As Vodafone New Zealand prepared to move into its flagship 18,000m2 Auckland office, Atomic was tasked to build a system that would allow its workforce to quickly gain their bearings and use the state-of-the-art ‘Smart’ building to its full potential.

The solution

Following a collaborative design and technical planning phase, Atomic developed the VLife mobile application. Its primary purpose was to streamline the workday of all Vodafone employees, allowing them to get the most out of the campus.

Built natively for Android and iOS the system integrated with a range of assets and systems across the campus. This enabled us to build custom functionality such as a cafe ordering system, guided way-finding to meeting rooms or other team members, and reserving office equipment across the new building.

The outcome

The system has allowed staff to work more efficiently while also impacting positively on their wellbeing. The data collected by the app has enabled Vodafone to ensure all aspects of the campus are being used efficiently and sustainably. The success of project came full circle with Vodafone extending its use to their Christchurch campus the following year.
