Transform your office into a productivity engine.
Fred Lundin CPA offers innovative Smart Workspace Solutions for businesses ready to upgrade their physical and digital environments for the modern era. The "office" has evolved. It’s no longer just desks and chairs; it’s an ecosystem of connected devices, automated systems, and collaborative technology.
Whether you run a hybrid team that hot-desks or a retail location needing automated environmental controls, we help you select and implement the smart technology that reduces overhead and boosts efficiency.
We bridge the gap between facility management and financial ROI. We advise on smart access controls (keyless entry), automated energy management systems (smart thermostats/lighting), and digital signage solutions that integrate with your inventory data.
We don't just recommend gadgets; we build a business case for technology that pays for itself through energy savings, labor reduction, and improved employee experience. As CPAs, we also ensure you capture every available tax credit (like Section 179) for these capital improvements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What qualifies as a "Smart Workspace"?
A smart workspace uses Internet of Things (IoT) technology to control the environment and operations. Examples include smart locks that allow remote entry for employees, thermostats that adjust based on occupancy to save money, and conference rooms that automatically book themselves when walked into.
How does this save me money?
The savings come from two places: Energy Efficiency (smart lights/HVAC can lower utility bills by 20-30%) and Labor Efficiency (automating tasks like unlocking doors or updating menu boards saves hours of staff time). We help you model this ROI before you buy.
Are there tax breaks for upgrading my office?
Absolutely. Many smart building upgrades qualify for Section 179 Expensing, allowing you to deduct the full cost of the equipment/software in the year you buy it. Additionally, certain energy-efficient upgrades may qualify for green energy tax credits. We ensure you claim every dollar.
Is this only for big corporations?
No. The cost of smart technology has dropped significantly. A small coffee shop can benefit from smart inventory sensors just as much as a large warehouse. We tailor solutions to your specific budget and footprint.
What about security?
Connecting devices to the internet creates security considerations. We work with IT partners to ensure your smart office devices are on a separate, secure network (VLAN) from your sensitive financial and customer data, minimizing cyber risk.
