Case Study: Samsara achieves a safe, touchless global return-to-office with Envoy

Samsara makes it safe and seamless for essential workers to return to offices globally

Samsara, a San Francisco–based industrial IoT company with about 1,400 employees across 28 offices, needed to bring essential hardware and lab teams back to the workplace during the COVID‑19 pandemic. They faced local pre‑screening mandates, site‑specific safety processes, strict occupancy limits and employee concerns about returning — all of which made reopening labs for business‑critical work complicated and inefficient.

Samsara rolled out Envoy Protect to run mobile health checks, QR‑code visitor intake and an integration with their Brivo access control so only cleared individuals can badge into buildings. The solution made access touchless, enforced symptom screening before travel, tracked site occupancy and generated alerts, enabling safe resumption of critical on‑site work, streamlined security workflows, consistent global processes, and renewed employee confidence.
