In today’s economic crisis, the facilities management departments should be very careful about the office fit out activities.

Organisations usually strive for additional room due to increased headcount or headcount and stock. Large proportion companies are unable to afford relocating their offices. These companies choose to look at the current space audit and re-planning. This option is inexpensive. And, these companies will defend that relocating is not a must. There are several methods of reaching desired results, such as space reallocation and swapping furnitures.

Relocation will be the perfect opportunity to incorporate improvement to your company. The new building appraisal will consist of the following activities: - space study: forecasting the space needs in detail - headcount study: planning the office based workers - new building appraisal: shorlisting potential office candidates for Regulatory Aspects and local amenities Please do not forget the future needs too.
