Relocating your Business to a new City - Checklist
Managing an office relocation is never easy, but when you're relocating your business to a completely new City the task becomes even more complicated. Not only will you need to make the process smooth for your staff, but you'll also need to be mindful not to disrupt business operations during the move.
Relocating your office to a new City can mean all sorts of changes for your business; new location and staff orientation required, recruiting new staff, changing office vendors and suppliers, and organizing your change of address notifications. With so many things to think about, Help Moving Office has created a Moving Checklist to help you remember the important things:
Liaison with Staff
Once the decision has been made to relocate the business there needs to be clear and concise consultation with staff. Relocating to a new city has many implications for staff and there will need to be changes in employment contracts and possibly relocation packages agreed.
Recruiting of new Staff
Attracting the right talent for your business is crucial to the ongoing success of your business. It is important that the city you choose has the right opportunities as far as recruiting new staff are concerned. Speak with local recruitment agencies about the staff your business needs and whether there is enough talent of the right calibre.
Staff Orientation
Staff will need regular communication about the progress of the move both during and post-move. It's a good idea to provide staff with an orientation of the new city and location with handbooks, with details of eateries, bars, shops and malls to help them get settled into their new environment.
New Vendors
Relocating to a new City will mean changing some of your vendors and office suppliers. Use this opportunity to make sure you are on the right service agreement and the most competitive tariff to reduce overheads.
