Future-proofing your New Office Space
In today's economic climate, companies are trying to extract every ounce of value from everything they do. This includes space consolidation and optimizing best use of office space - which have now been placed higher on the agenda for many companies moving office.
Future proofing your office space will ensure you don't outgrow your new office too quickly and your business can continue to florish throughout the duration of the office lease:
Office Design
Office space should be flexible to meet both current and future requirements. This can be achieved in an intelligent and well-planned office design which maximizes best use of office space; as well as being efficient and functional. Flexible office design techniques include incorporating break out areas which can be used for staff rest breaks as well as informal meetings, mobile storage units which can be moved and re-configured easily, and the use of fold-back partitioning in conference rooms.
Office Space
Choose an office space which has enough capacity to meet your growing business and forecasted staff headcount. Use the Office Space Calculator to work out how much office space you are going to need and ensure you add between 10-20 per cent extra to accommodate future growth.
IT & Telecoms
Moving office is the ideal time to consider new advanced technology which is going to enhance efficiency and improve your service to clients. Furthermore, your existing business phone system may require upgrading in a new environment, particularly as your business expands you and you require additional phone lines, handsets and extension numbers. Use the IT Relocation Checklist to ensure your new office is set up correctly to accommodate your IT & business phone requirements.
Thinking ahead of where your business might be towards the end of your office lease and adopting flexible office design solutions will help to maximize best use of office space and enable you to create a "future-ready office" that stands the test of time.
