Most office moves run over three to six months from brief to move in, depending on the size of the space and the fit out involved. We map the programme to your lease dates at the start so the timeline is clear from day one.

We plan the move around how you operate, phase the work where needed and handle furniture, IT and logistics. Most of the heavy lifting happens outside core hours or over a weekend so your team can keep working.

Either. Our in house team can run the full programme, from space planning and design through fit out, furniture and the physical move, or slot into a project that already has some elements in place.

We can manage dilapidations on the space you are leaving and deal with existing furniture through reuse, resale, storage or responsible recycling, so you hand the old office back in good order.

We work with organisations from 20 to 2,000+ people. The process scales to the complexity of the organisation and the space. A growing 50-person tech firm facing a lease event benefits from consultancy just as much as a 500-person financial services firm looking to consolidate floors. The common factor is that you want to make a significant decision about your workspace and you want it to be based on evidence rather than assumption.

Two things set us apart. First, we are practitioners as well as consultants. We do not just advise on what a workplace should be; we design, build, and furnish them. That means our recommendations are grounded in the reality of what is constructible, affordable, and maintainable. Second, our heritage in furniture consultancy (the company was founded by furniture specialists with backgrounds at Kimball) means we bring an unusually deep understanding of how furniture and product specification supports the activities identified in the consultancy phase.

Absolutely. Our workplace consultancy is a standalone service. We deliver a complete workplace strategy that you can take to any design team or use internally. Many clients do choose to continue with us into the design and build phase because the continuity saves time and prevents information being lost in handovers, but there is no obligation to do so.

It is not mandatory, but it significantly reduces risk. An office fit out without a clear understanding of how your team works can result in spaces that look good but do not function well for the people using them. Consultancy gives you a tested brief, which leads to fewer design changes, fewer surprises during construction, and a workspace that genuinely supports your business.

A typical workplace consultancy engagement takes between four and eight weeks, depending on the size and complexity of the organisation. Smaller single-floor offices can often be assessed in a shorter timeframe, while multi-floor or multi-site projects require additional data collection and stakeholder engagement.
