3 Steps For A Successful Office Refurbishment

An office refurbishment can be very advantageous to your business, so here's a list of 3 steps to help you make the most out of your refurb.

1. Choose An Internal Team

First things first you need to decide who from your organisation will be leading the refurbishment project. The people in this team will need to be very responsible and trustworthy as the project greatly depends on their skills and adequacy. This means you need a head strong team leader who can lead with confidence and a project team with the skills and dedicated to support them.

2. Research

Once you have assembled your internal team, the first step for anything should be research. After all, how can you start a project if you don't truly understand your objectives and goals and understand how your refurbishment is going to solve any issues you're currently facing? As such, it is essential that you understand what exactly you're hoping to achieve with this office refurbishment process. After all, upon reflection it may appear that your needs would be better met through the use of a relocation service, instead of an office fit out.

Additionally, it's also important to make sure that you follow all relevant health and safety regulations and relevant legislation. However, your research should not be restricted to just the rules which exist today, as legislation frequently changes and with the uncertainty surrounding the UK's departure from the EU, it's very important that you also maintain a high level of awareness in order to ensure your business remains compliant with legislative changes that may arise in the next few years.

3. Hire A Team Of Fit Out And Refurb Specialists & Make Plans For The Future

Before you start your refurbishment process, it's important to choose the office fit out company that is best suited to your needs. It's essential that you measure the experience of any company you consider hiring. Additionally, remember to consider businesses that both specialise in refurbishments in your industry, and businesses with a diverse portfolio of clients. Whilst there are many advantages to choosing an industry specialist, it's important to remember that variety is a strength in its own right.

However, it's not merely sufficient that the business has adequate skills and experience to prove it. They must also be trustworthy business that understands and appreciates your organisation's ethos and values. So pay close attention to their portfolio of previous projects and keep an eye out for any brand names or organisation names that you recognise. For example, here at Active Workplace solutions, we previously worked on a project for a state of the art call centre at Virgin Media, which their CEO commented “it's the best call centre I've even been to, the transformation is amazing."

It's also essential to look to the future and consider office maintenance. After all, it can be very difficult to tackle small interior design issues without paying a huge call out premium. Her at Active, we can provide a range of ' handyman services' to help keep your business and working environment running smoothly.
