Basic Office Move Checklist
The Basics of Office Move Planning
Planning an office move can be a daunting and overwhelming task, particularly if you've never been involved in a business move before. It's very different from moving house; a lot more is at stake and you will need to keep in mind the continuity of the business operations throughout the move - and even on the move day itself.
Thankfully, there's a basic Office Move Checklist that can help you plan, prepare and keep you sane throughout the entire process.
The Basics of Office Move Planning
Once you've got a copy of the Office Move Checklist, you'll soon realise that with a bit of time on your side and a lot of careful planning, an office move project can be broken down into stages - making the whole project more achieveable and less stressful! Here's some tips to get your office move started:
Find out why your company is moving
Is it more/less space you need? Cheaper office rent? Better location? Answers to all these questions will help to brief your Tenant Rep Broker when it comes to finding the ideal office space.
What's in the Budget?
An office move can be an expensive ticket item - particularly if you don't set a budget from the outset. Use the Moving Office Budget Planner to find out what costs you can expect and check with your finance team whether you have enough budget to move.
How much time have you got?
Time can quickly run away with you when your planning an office move. Find out when you need to be out of your existing office by (lease expiry) and then work backwards to establish your important dates and deadlines.
Put a Team Together
You'll need to engage external Office Relocation Professionals to help with certain components of the office move, like finding the right space, reviewing your office lease and building out the new premises.
