2.  Growing congestion, pollution and urban sprawl  Greater emphasis on security and business continuity  Globalization and shifting labor markets  Standard of Living-Increasing cost and time of transportation Major Challenges Pressure for Change

3.  ‘Disruptive Information & Communications Technologies’  Electronics  Telecommunications  Internet  Pressures on our standard of living  Fewer # of high paying jobs  Increasing cost and time of transportation  In the coming decades our shrinking labor pool

4. Shifting Paradigms  Industrial Worker  Deliverables are physical goods  Components of production need to be gathered at a physical location  Depletion of time and gasoline  Knowledge Worker  Deliverables are information based  Components of production are assembled in cyberspace  Uses time to ‘create’ information value and reduces use of gasoline

5. 2004 Urban Mobility Study (TTI)  Examines 85 U.S. urban areas from 1982 to 2002  Conclusions:  The problem can be stated simply – congestion has grown everywhere in areas of all sizes.  Congestion occurs during longer portions of the day and delays more travelers and goods than ever before.  There are ways to address congestion problems, but there are not enough solutions being implemented to keep pace with the growing travel demands.

Responses  Transportation Based  Single Occupied Vehicle  Carpooling, vanpooling  Public transportation  Flextime  Walk, cycle  Technology Based  Telephone, fax  Voicemail, email, internet  Teleconferencing  Telework, instant messaging  Telework centers  Video conferencing  Wireless mobility  Unified Messaging  Collaborative Tools  ‘Virtual Presence’

24. Scenarios Current Direction Networked Economy Increasing congestion Reduced congestion (predictable patterns) Growing reliance on gas Less gas dependent Diminishing personal time Greater personal time Greater cost impact on lower wage earners More equitable access for lower wage earners Allocated Resources - $ Incremental, progressive (slow) improvement Leapfrog improvement

25. Evolution of IT Solutions for Remote Workers  Telework (Home Based) – Early 1970’s  Telework Centers (Modest Real Estate) – Early 1990’s  Distributed Workplace (Strategic use of Real Estate)

26. POCKETS Distributed Workplace Distributed workplace is the combined use of a broad range of information technologies and strategic use of real estate for sustainable and secure economic and social advantage.
