4.Why space plan an office?

Through clever space planning you can optimise the space you have available to ensure that you can accommodate all your staff in the most comfortable way, with the least amount of wasted space. Often offices may appear to be already full, but when correctly space planned, they may have large areas of surplus space. Obviously when office space is paid for per square foot, any space that can be saved, can save you money.

Space planning has many other advantages as well; it can save you a lot of time and money when conducting office moves as it is possible to tell beforehand what will fit where (preventing moves that simply will not fit). It will also ensure that your layout is Health & Safety compliant and that every desk is accessible by wheelchair users (a legal requirement). Also many options can be produced to give alternatives and show different ways that an office could work (including modern ways of working such as touch down areas, mobile workers, breakout zones etc).
Through smarter working techniques we have even managed to successfully accommodate staff from two office sites in to one, allowing the second site to be sold off, or sub-let, which can provide substantial extra revenue.
