corporate Office Refurbishment

An office refurbishment can provide enormous benefits to staff productivity and morale when completed but it can also sap time and enthusiasm from your staff whilst the process is being considered, planned and finally underway.

Maybe an office refurbishment is required to improve space ratios and take advantage of smaller footprint workstations, or just to bring your office environment up to a modern standard and to rearrange existing team structures.

Or possibly an office refurbishment project is necessitated due to a relocation, or the opening of a new office or the merger of two companies or two previously discrete locations.

Whatever your reasons for undertaking an office refurbishment there are a number of steps to overcome to ensure that your project creates the:


  •   Right outcome
  • In the right timescale
  • And for the right price
  • If you can achieve all these then you should be well on the way to a successful
  • refurbishment project and advance planning and attention to detail throughout the project will help achieve all three of these objectives.


Staff can also feel threatened by the change a refurbishment and reorganisation project brings and these emotions need to be expected and anticipated. By focusing on the positive aspects and keeping staff informed and involved, it is possible to minimise these fears, but the time required should not be underestimated, and this liaison process should start as early as possible.

It is likely that you will want to bring in external teams to advise and manage the day to day running of the project but with some simple strategies and proper expertise you can ensure your staff can continue to focus on their business of running your business during what is a time consuming and challenging period.

Reasons to Survey your land

Although a land survey may seem tedious and unnecessary, in fact there are many cases in which you should have your land surveyed, to save confusion or legal troubles later. If you have two surveys done, they will nearly always have slight differences, because land surveying is as much an art as a science. Measurements are always subject to error. In land surveying, these measurements are often taken from landmarks such as fence posts; in two separate surveys, the same landmarks may not be available, or may have shifted. A land surveyor will research the documents available about your land, including titles and previous surveys. Then, they will physically measure the property, and check these dimensions against the previous records to find any discrepancies. Land surveyors can also use electronic equipment, GPS positioning, or other devices to determine the boundaries of your property.

Construction Safety Management Plan

Construction Safety Management Plans (CSMP) must be specific to the organization and to the project, in other words you cannot have a generic CSMP; they will not be accepted by OSHA inspectors when they visit and audit your worksite. Experience has shown that the best written CSMP are those prepared with consultation of key players of the delivery team ie coalface staff and first line management (work supervisors, team leaders and employees). Employees take ownership of the CSMP written in consultation with them and embrace them much more at the time of implementation. Furthermore, the CSMP must reflect your organization and current work practices and not someone else work methods.
