Strategic Real Estate Planning - Building a Road Map for Success
Description
After salaries, the cost of your office lease is likely to be the biggest overhead your company has. Because the lease involves a commitment for a substantial period of time, it is critical to get the right premises on the right terms.
Today this message is even more important. Corporations not only have a growing demand to manage real estate costs but, at the same time, the competitive environment for talent has put pressure on organizations to create more functional, “people-centric” and sustainable workplaces. Will creating such a workplace cost more? How have other companies aligned their space with their business strategy? How will you support the changing space needs of your organization?
Scott Mulligan, Partner –
Ellington Tenant and Facilities Services - has been advising tenants and corporate users for over 16 years with respect to creating an office lease that supports their corporate objectives.
