Have you ever thought about moving your business from one location to another, or remodeling?
As businesses grow and mergers and acquisitions take place, changes to a company’s structure or offering must be accommodated. It’s only a matter of time before some business owners find themselves facing relocation or contemplating the logistics of a major change to their facility.
Mark McKinley, a Principal and President of Rea’s Central Ohio Area, joins us on this episode of unsuitable to share what he learned from managing two separate office relocation projects and a new office remodel project. We will discuss some of the steps Mark had to take to make these projects successful and how you can find success in your own relocation or remodeling projects.
Planning is Essential
At least 30 percent of relocation and remodeling projects are spent in the planning phase. If you spend enough time mapping out your journey before you start, then the trip will be easier and faster. During this phase, you will want to break the project into smaller chunks because trying to tackle the full scope of the project will be overwhelming.
If your business is growing, it’s never too early to start thinking about this process. This episode will help you understand...
- Why you need to include, trust, and delegate to people from every department, generation, and level of your business throughout the process.
- How the budget affects the process (and how to prevent the budget from limiting your team’s input).
- How to build an office around every type of employee, like individuals who aren’t in the office every day.
