Getting a Workplace Appraisal before you move office
Before you "up sticks" to new office, re-organising and refurbishing your existing office space might be all you need.
A Workplace Appraisal is essential prior to any office relocation. It's usually undertaken by an Office fit-out company prior to an office move and provides a detailed analysis of both your current and future business objectives and office space requirements so you can best determine your office space needs and how your existing office space might serve you better.
If your existing office is no longer serving your business needs and you are considering an office relocation, getting a Workplace Appraisal done might be just the thing you need. It helps determine whether you would be better served by relocating to a new office, or refurbishing your existing office space. With some re-organisation and better space planning, some companies may find they don't need the upheaval of moving office. Better still, it could save your company substantial savings.
A Workplace Appraisal will usually include: -
- Staff to space ratio
- Storage audit
- Technical Requirements & Usage
- Workgroup interaction
- Use of meeting rooms, reception and break out areas etc.
Ask yourself; is your current office "working" for you? Could your office do with a make-over? Why not speak to an Office fit-out company in your area? A conversation with them won't cost you, there's no obligation to use them, and it will give you some invaluable insight about the most effective ways to create the ideal workplace for your business that meets both your budget and requirements.
