Usually companies are looking for an "office", for a "square meters" or the "location", leaving the layout preparation stage to the very end of the "story" as well as the office furniture ordering stage (about that later:)).
All starts being a stress when location of the new office is great, everyone is happy. Good view, parking for employees, good restaurants nearby, but wait... will we fit the space, what about furniture and all other stuff ?
Here comes the challenge š°
No one is willing to be a person in charge, but someone should organise the office move in to the new premises. In most of the cases the person in charge will be the office manager, who is far away from office furniture, or architectural expertise or any other knowledge about what is the key steps to be done.
Let's say you are a small company of 15 people, you have found a great new office location with how is generally said 10 m2 per employee (150m2). But how you are going to "live" there? No one knows :)
Here comes a straight task for an office administrator - organise our move-in. We are should be in a new office space after one month (CEO says). Let's go "Google.com" first thought of the person in charge and yes, those are right thoughts - you can find anything there...right ? maybe or maybe not...
We in Standesk have an expertise of helping those "person in charge" or "office administrators" who are looking for a fast problem solver. What should you do:
Ask Google.com about near Architecrure agencies, or Interior designers - they are in most cases the key persons, who could solve most of your headache regarding new office. They know all about planing, construction, handyman, furniture or carpenters. They usually have all the necessary contacts - they could organise the technical part.
Ask Google.com about near "Relocation service" or "Moving" companies, who could simply move a box from point "A" to point "B". Believe us, there will be a lot of the goods to relocate šµāš«
Never agree or order anything from the first company You have contacted! Always compare offers/prices! Believe us there will always be the one with a better price or service.
As You don't have a lot of time for a preparation works - try to look for a "guy" or a company, who can provide multiple service: movers, furniture supplier, assembly team, loaders, carpenters, etc.
For example we in Standesk had experience in delivering plates, forks and knifes in parallel with office desk installation š but no problem for us, just be prepared You will handle all these tasks...
Be ready for delays - there will be a lot of them - in general, construction companies are late, furniture producers are late, everyone is late - it is normal, just be ready for this and keep your schedule with +1 week as a reserve,
In conclusion - each project is a challenge, it doesn't matter if it is a bulb replacement in your wardrobe or relocating a 1000 HQ to the new location - of course in the 2nd case there will be a lot of bulb replacement cases :) You should pick the easies way to solve the issue/s, do not take each issue close to your heart, be ready for a delays and pick the right "guy" or a company to support You with solving this hard task of a "person in charge" š¶āš«ļø
