  Our staff with over 20 years of project management experience will support your office relocation/renovation project from the planning, strategy development and manage the project on your behalf. We negotiate the construction costs and period of move-in work and restoration works of current premises conducted by the landlord’s designated contractors.

  • Project Master Planning

    

    When relocating or renovating your office space, it is important to first clarify the overall objective and strategy. We will lead the way in improving client satisfaction by creating a list of issues and output that can resolve the issues. We will support occupiers from the construction of a detailed project plan by being involved in the formulation of the project concept, a budget and master schedule together with the design team. When relocating office, it is also important to carefully consider a strategy to handle a restoration work of the current premises. Due to the recent labor shortage in the construction industry, construction cost estimate and period are becoming longer. Additionally, by understanding the project master plan at the early stage, we can contribute to the building selection and construction related negotiation.

    

  • Design and Construction Schedule Management

    

    Office layout and design development are the most important items to success your project. Even realizing the ideal office space requires facing the reality of costs and schedule. We move forward with the project while verifying that the design and construction plan is in line with the schedule and budget according to the project master plan. At this point, we clarify the project issues and challenges through communication with management and stake holders.

    

  • Project Costs Management

    

    When carrying out office relocation or renovation work, it is important to work with the contractors designated by the landlord to ensure the validity of the schedule and costs of work. Our project manager will negotiate the optimal cost and schedule while making the negotiation process transparent with the designated contractors. If the cost and schedule are not met in accordance with the master plan, we propose a solution through efficient value engineering with aim to achieve successful project. For the selection of contractors for furniture, fixtures and fitting, communication infrastructure and moving company, we select contractors through appropriate competitive bidding process and manage quality and schedules.

    

  • Restoration Work

    

    At the time of a project master plan phase, we commence communication with the person in charge of the current building, estimate the cost and schedule of restoration work from early stage of the project (including the case of a partial termination to reduce a space), and discuss a reasonable schedule and cost. We plan to avoid compromises due to “running out of time” without having sufficient negotiation.
