3 Steps for a Successful Office Relocation
Office Relocation Planning Steps
Ask any office relocation professional and they will all say how commonplace it is that most companies pay little or no strategic or operational attention to the whole office relocation process.
This seems totally in conflict with what should happen because, for most businesses, property costs represent either the 1st or 2nd biggest fixed expenditure item. Surely, therefore, the planning, preparation, management and execution of any office relocation needs to be a high agenda item for any company that values its future success?!?!
All too often, however, many office moves end up being a stressful and time-consuming journey into an unknown world which is fraught with difficulty. Worst still, it is a journey which often results in expensive mistakes being made at every stage of the office relocation process.
An office relocation must not be entered into in an amateurish and ignorant way. There are simply too many expensive pitfalls that will catch you out.
Especially when experience clearly shows that those companies that plan, manage and execute their office moves properly end up being able to bring about increased business performance and positive change management in their new environment.
Read below for the 3 key office relocation mistakes that get made over and over again.
Too many companies:
- just do not understand the office relocation process
