Top Ten Moving Office Mistakes - Don't make them!
Anyone who's ever been involved in organizing an office move before knows that anything can happen and any number of things can go wrong - even when the relocation has been properly planned! But like anything else, if you know what to expect and are aware of the common mistakes that companies make when moving office, you'll be better prepared to avoid them.
Mistake # 1 - Starting the planning of your office move far too late. This causes hasty decisions, overspending and business disruption.
Mistake # 2 - Not using the right Office Relocation Professionals to carry out the relevant parts of the project (Tenant Rep Broker, Real Estate Lawyer, Office Designers, Office Moving Company). Remember that these companies have the relevant expertise to ensure a successful and profitable relocation.
Mistake #3 - Lack of IT Relocation Planning which can lead to delays when you get to the new office because of phone/computer failures.
Mistake #4 - Poor Budget Management or worse still - no budget planning at all! You'll end up spending more bucks than you really need to without a clear and realistic budget. Create a winning Moving Office Budget here.
Mistake #5 - Missing important deadlines caused by no established timeline of activities. The Moving Office Timeline will ensure you never miss a deadline!
Mistake #6 - Unorganized Office Space Plan leading to confusion when you get to the new office - including all your office furniture landing in the wrong part of the office - Chaos!
Mistake #7 - Poor communication with staff leads to negativity, low staff morale and poor productivity during and after the office move.
Mistake #8 - Not enough communication or involvement with your Office Designers can lead to poor use of office space, inadequate facilities and a delayed build out.
Mistake #9 - Poor choice of office space caused by not accounting for future growth. The result: You'll of outgrown the office space before the lease is up for expiry.
Mistake #10 - Not using the Office Move Checklist to guide you through every step of the process.
