5 questions to ask yourself ahead of your 2019 office fit-out
A New Year may be a time of new beginnings, but the relevance of timeless wisdom doesn’t go away – especially if your firm is contemplating an office fit-out in Dubai during 2019.
Office fit-out work is a major investment, after all, that you may not be able to repeat for many years. You therefore won’t want to get this particular project wrong, as it may be a while before you are able to correct any elements that could do with improvement.
Here, then, are just some questions that we suggest you ask yourself.
How necessary is the refurbishment work?
Given the financial commitment and disruption that your office fit-out in Dubai will represent, you need to consider how your company will continue operating throughout the refurbishment, as well as what benefits it will enjoy once the work is done.
Might it be a better idea at present to request more incremental improvements to certain aspects of your office space, for example, rather than try to coordinate a complete fit-out?
What do key stakeholders say?
While it’s important not to try to please everyone at once, it’s nonetheless vital to determine what the big issues are that should dictate how you approach your office fit-out.
Are there certain departments or sections of your workplace that need to be brought closer together, for instance, or others that it may be best for you to distance from each other? Or do your staff have thoughts on such aspects as your office air conditioning, electrics or paint job?
Who and what inspires you?
Have you looked online and offline at images of office spaces similar to the one that you would like to have? Are you looking at what competitors are doing? Are there certain values that your brand has, and that you would like to see reflected in the final scheme for your office fit-out?
What will your budget be?
You might have a certain amount to money to spend on an office fit-out in Dubai, but will still need to determine precisely how that money is to be spent.
Do the plumbing and painting in your current workspace need more urgent and comprehensive attention than the carpentry or masonry, for example? There will therefore always be sensitive and difficult choices to be made in relation to the budget.
