Planning Your Office Fitout: 3 Things You Need to Do

Posted on

If you are planning to move from your current office to new, larger premises, you may think that this is a pretty exciting time. However, it is vital that you take the time to plan the office fitout properly. Below are three things you need to do to ensure your office fitout is successful. Read on to find out everything you need to know.

1. Conduct a feasibility study

The first thing you need to do is to conduct a feasibility study. This study will allow you to establish exactly how much space you need. This will help you to secure new premises which are the correct size. The last thing you want to do is to spend a lot of time and money moving into new offices which are still too small for your growing business. To avoid this, you should look at the predicted growth rate for your company and the number of additional staff who may join the company in the next few years.

2. Consider storage space

Fitting out a new office isn't just about having enough space for staff from different departments to work in, it is also about creating the storage space you need. While you are still operating out of your current office, you should conduct an audit of your storage space to establish how well it is being used and the amount of additional storage space you need to satisfy the demands of your growing office.

3. Think about how your new office will look

Once you have secured a new office and you have conducted a feasibility study and a storage space audit, you can then set out planning how the new office will look. It is at this point you should call in an interior design company. The interior design company will be able to help you to establish the look of your new office. The design team will also be able to recommend different fabrics and materials. However, you should not rely solely on the interior designer. It is vital that you also consult your marketing team, as they will be able to ensure that the new office fitout is on message with your brand and corporate image. In order to secure buy-in from your staff, you may wish to display mood boards in the old office so that they can contribute to the interior design project.
