A Guide to Office Relocation

Design 21st August, 2020

Relocating to a new office isn’t always straightforward. Getting it right takes a great deal of planning and preparation, but the question for most businesses is, where do you start? We understand better than anyone the complexities of moving (which isn’t as simple as packing and unpacking – trust us!), which is why we’ve prepared a handy step-by-step guide to help you understand the office relocation process.

Open office space at Lotus, featuring wooden beam architecture, tiered seating, a large digital screen, and a kitchenette area below, combining modern design with rustic elements.

Our Office Relocation Services gives you an in-depth breakdown of the procedure for relocating, from getting started to choosing the right space to move in and beyond. Here is a breakdown of some of the points we cover:

Starting Out

We’ll walk you through the main drivers for relocation, how to avoid unnecessary costs, and when to kick off your planning process. It’s all about making sure the move is right for your business.

How to Prepare Your Office Move

Learn exactly what you need to do before the big day, from handling change management to appointing the right commercial property agent. Plus, we’ve included a workplace appraisal checklist that ensures you’re fully prepared, no matter the size of your business.

Building Rating Systems

When it comes to environmental standards, wellbeing, and digital connectivity, building certifications like BREEAM, WELL, and WiredScore can seem complicated. Our guide breaks it all down, making it easy to understand what matters and why.

Building Analysis

Finding the right space through in-depth building analysis. We also explore test-fitting the building, making sure the space can grow with you.

Cultural fit

Your workspace should reflect your company’s culture. We help you connect the dots between your values and the space you’ll call home.

Moving in

As move day approaches, there’s a lot to think about. We’ve included a checklist to help you prepare and ensure everything runs smoothly. Plus, we share ways to measure the success of your new space once your team is settled.

This timeline chart shows the office relocation process for small, medium, and large companies, outlining key stages from choosing to move to installing furniture.

The more preparation and planning you can do during the early stages of an office relocation, the better informed you will be about making decisions about your space. If you’re ready to move, our guide will ensure you start on the right foot.
