Relocation and renovation offer more than an opportunity for businesses to simply refresh their surroundings. They also serve as a pretext for companies to analyze and improve their operations through the use of strategic planning and sound design execution.
For instance, a well-thought-out space plan should facilitate collaboration by placing key departments close to one another. It can even play a role in employee retention and boost productivity.
In order to ensure clients get the most out of their design investment, we begin consultations with questions like:
- Does your current office reflect the image you want to project?
- Is your current space being utilized efficiently? What are its strongest and weakest points? What's on your wish list for things you would change if you could?
- How well does your space meet your changing requirements?
- What's the overall trajectory for your company? Is it growing, downsizing, or growing some locations while downsizing others? Are department mergers a part of its future?
- Would your employees benefit from private offices, a completely open environment or some combination of the two?
Once we have a thorough understanding of an organization's needs, we customize a solution using some or all of the following:
- Space planning, zone and block planning, space plan development, furniture and equipment inventories and assessments, bylaw reviews and preliminary budget estimates.
- Design development, including conceptual and detailed designs, furnishing development, and finishes and materials selection and specifications.
- Construction documentation and project management, including budget estimates, the production of working drawings, details and specifications, construction tendering, project administration, site meetings, deficiency inspections and follow-ups, project closeouts and relocation services.
