Relocating a business is a huge undertaking and is far more complex than a residential relocation. A business relocation will be a far more costly project which will need to co-ordinated properly so that your business can continue to operate throughout the relocation process.
By using a detailed Business Relocation Plan, it will help to keep your office move on track, on time and with no nasty cost surprises further down the line.
Things your Business Relocation Plan should include:
Define your reasons for relocating your business
Having a clear understanding of why you are relocating your business is important for choosing the right office and determining your office space requirements. You may need a bigger/smaller office, better facilities, different location or a cheaper office rent and all these factors need to be considered with a Property Consultant to help find you the most suitable office space.
Choosing your office space
Decide on the future location of your new office and take into consideration how your staff commute to and from work and how accessible you want your new office to be for clients. When considering the size of your new office, make sure you account for future business growth and use the Office Space Calculator to calculate how much space you are going to need.
Promote your company brand in your Office Design
A business relocation is a great opportunity to review how you want to perceived to clients, staff and your competitors. Designing your new office will enable you to showcase your brand.
