Why Simple Service Interaction Matters

When people need service attention, the biggest barrier is often the effort required to report it. A simple touch interaction gives users an immediate way to signal a request or provide feedback without needing an app, login or lengthy form.

Flexicount turns that interaction into a usable operational signal, helping teams see where attention is needed and respond more quickly.

The value is not in the button itself. It is in connecting a simple human interaction to a clear operational response.

Make It Easy to Ask for Help

Give building users a clear, immediate way to request service at the point where the issue occurs.

Capture Feedback in the Moment

Let users provide simple positive or negative feedback while the service experience is still current.

Alert the Right Team

Turn each interaction into an alert or operational event so the relevant team knows where attention may be required.

Create a Service Record

Record requests, feedback and completed responses to build a clearer picture of service demand over time.

Turn a Simple Touch Into an Operational Signal

The Flexicount touch sensor gives users a simple physical way to request service or provide feedback. Each interaction is sent into the Flexicount platform, where it can trigger an alert, create a record and support a clear response workflow.

Touch

The user presses the sensor.

Place the touch sensor where people naturally experience the service, such as a washroom, reception area or shared facility.

Signal

The interaction is recorded instantly.

The touch event is transmitted into Flexicount as a clear operational signal associated with the relevant location.

Alert

Flexicount can notify the appropriate team.

Depending on the workflow, the interaction can raise an alert so the team knows where attention may be required.

Respond & Record

The team acts and the response becomes part of the service record.

Attendance or completion can be recorded, helping create a clearer view of service demand and response activity over time.

Request Attention or Capture Feedback at the Point of Service

The same simple touch interaction can support different operational workflows. Use the sensor to let people request service when something needs attention, or capture immediate feedback about the service they have received.

Both workflows turn a simple physical interaction into useful Operational Intelligence; helping teams understand what people need and what should happen next.

Turn Touch Events Into Clear Operational Alerts

A touch event becomes most useful when the right team can see it and act on it. Flexicount can route service requests and feedback into Alert Monitoring, helping teams respond quickly and create a clearer record of what happened next.

The aim is not simply to count button presses. It is to understand what people are signalling, how the team responds and what can be improved over time.

Identify the Trigger

See whether the interaction came from a service request, feedback point or other configured touch workflow.

Notify the Team

Route the event into the Alert Monitor and, where configured, notify the relevant team that attention may be required.

Record the Response

Capture acknowledgement, attendance or completion so the action becomes part of the service record.

Review the Pattern

Look at recurring requests, feedback levels and response activity to understand where service delivery could be improved.

Use Touch Sensors Where People Need a Simple Way to Respond

Touch sensors work best where people need an immediate, low-effort way to request attention or provide feedback. Flexicount turns those interactions into usable operational signals for the teams responsible for service delivery.

Washrooms & Cleaning

Let users request attention where it is needed.

Place a touch sensor in washrooms or other service areas so users can signal when cleaning, replenishment or other attention may be required.

Customer Feedback

Capture simple feedback at the point of experience.

Use positive and negative touch options to understand service satisfaction and identify where follow-up may be needed.

Explore feedback solutions →

Shared Facilities

Give people a simple way to flag service issues.

Use touch points in shared facilities, reception areas or communal spaces to help operational teams see where attention is required.

Explore facilities management →

Service Verification

Create a simple interaction around completed service.

Touch interactions can support workflows where teams need to confirm attendance, completion or another defined service event.

The Flexicount Smart Building Platform

See What Touch Events Reveal Over Time

Individual touch events are useful in the moment, but the wider value comes from understanding the pattern. Flexicount helps teams review requests, feedback and response activity over time to identify recurring issues and opportunities to improve service delivery.

The result is a clearer view of what people are asking for, how they feel about the service and how effectively the team responds.

Request Trends

See how often service requests are raised, when they occur and which locations generate the highest demand.

Response Activity

Compare touch events with acknowledgement and completion records to understand how effectively teams are responding.

Feedback Patterns

Review positive and negative feedback over time to identify consistent strengths or areas needing attention.

Better Service Decisions

Use the combined history to review workflows, staffing and service priorities based on real user interaction.

Technology Behind the Touch Sensor

Flexicount uses compact wireless touch sensors to capture simple physical interactions at the point of service. Each touch event is securely transmitted through the connected infrastructure into the Flexicount platform, where it can become part of an alert, feedback or service-response workflow.

The sensor itself stays simple. The operational value comes from what Flexicount does with the interaction afterwards.

Tactile Touch Sensor | Flexicount
Cloud Connector | Flexicount

Installed discreetly on walls or posts, the sensor detects a press and sends a secure wireless message via the Flexicount cloud infrastructure. The event is logged, timestamped, and pushed into dashboards and alerts where cleaning or FM teams can act. It communicates over 868 MHz/915 MHz ISM band, supports long-battery life and rugged environments.

Where required, a Cloud Connector provides the gateway between the wireless touch sensors and the cloud service. The exact configuration depends on the location and deployment environment.

  • Operating temperature: –40 °C to 85 °C, humidity 0 – 100% RH (non-condensing)
  • Radio Frequency:  868 MHz - 915 MHz 
  • Radio Range: indoor up to 40 m / 131 ft
  • Battery lifetime: Up to 15 years in standard environment
  • Size: 26 × 26 × 5.9 mm / weight 5.0 g
  • Certifications and Compliance - CE, WEEE, Batteries directive

The Wireless Tactile Touch Sensor detects when the sensor is pressed and gives an audible and tactile feedback to the user. The sensor will immediately send a Touch event to the cloud.

The radio protocol used is SecureDataShot™, and the data is relayed to the cloud using a SecureDataShot™ enabled gateway, also known as a Cloud Connector (Hub). 

  • The Cloud Connector is the sensors’ connection to the cloud, securely relaying the data transmitted by the sensors.
  • The 4G Cloud Connector relays data from SecureDataShot™ enabled wireless sensors to the DT cloud service via ethernet or a 4G/LTE cellular connection.
  • There is no need for configuration during installation. The Cloud Connector will transparently relay traffic between all sensors in range and the cloud without the need for any user configuration or intervention.
  • The 4G Cloud Connector comes with a built-in sim card that is connected to a global mobile network operator. This means the Cloud Connector will always connect and roam freely between the best networks in the area.
  • Our proprietary Sub-1 GHz wireless communication protocol, SecureDataShot, is made specifically for creating a scalable network of sensors, maintaining security while using as little energy as possible. All devices work out of the box and communicate securely with your account in Studio immediately.
