A high profile nonprofit desired to find new office space that would better suit its operations
The organization did not know how much space to take, whether it should lease or own, where the office should be located, whether all operational groups should be co-located or when to start the space search
The group was approached to be the anchor tenant in an off-prime location.
Process
Rather than retaining a broker and beginning a space search, the company instead began a process to best understand how its goals and mission could be enhanced by office space.
With the guidance of an architect, the company identified its core values, evaluated the functionality of its current space, explored building typologies and images of interior workspaces, and developed a methodical process and timeline to go forward with the real estate search. The end product was a building search process that ensured the company would identify space enhancing its productivity.
