Why should we move office space?
There are a huge range of different reasons that a company may choose to move offices. Needing to expand the office, a change in meeting room requirements to even just fancying something different.
If you are thinking about moving offices there are two things that we suggest that you do.
Firstly, take a look at your budget and what would be realistic for you right now. The best way to do this is to look at your current office spend and then look at your changing requirements.
If for example, you want more desk space, that will likely cost more so you may need to factor more into your budget.
Secondly, we recommend that you survey your current members of staff. Here you should look to answer some of the following questions.
- How often would your staff like to be in the office?
- Where would most people like the office to be located?
- How many meeting rooms do you need per month?
- What amenities are most important to you?
Answering these questions will help you get a better idea of what is important to your staff and will enable you to make a more educated decision on what your next office move should be.
Could I save money by moving office space?
To put it simply, yes. Try our calculator above to see if you could save money. The main factors influencing your costs are location, changes in office size, and changes in requirements for facilities such as meeting rooms.
We do believe that there are other factors involved than just cost savings when moving. How efficient your team can be and their overall performance are also key factors, so make sure that when looking at cost-saving it doesn’t come at the cost of employee satisfaction and retention.
