The term describes an integration position rather than a feature list. The argument for it is that separate tools for booking, visitors and reporting each hold part of the picture, so nobody can answer a simple question about how the building is used without exporting from three systems.
It differs from an IWMS, which is aimed at property, maintenance and lease administration for large estates. A workplace operating system is aimed at the people using the building day to day.
