Flex and Core Strategy – For occupiers exploring large new office leases, we de-risk a relocation by bringing in an operator to enter a building in tandem. Our clients take a combination of long term leased office space with the landlord and a flexible agreement with the operator. 

Surplus space redeployment - We help clients explore alternative uses for underutilized space. Our proprietary operator selection process ensures the optimal solution in secured. 

Bespoke Turnkey solution -  When existing flex supply is insufficient, we can orchestrate new space by partnering with operators who will deliver turnkey, flexible space on-demand in a building of the occupier’s choice.

Hybrid work solutions – As companies navigate the challenges of hybrid working, we support companies looking to utilise third place workspace solutions.

We help clients optimize their use of flexible workspaces. We understand the underlying business drivers that inform a flexible workspace strategy and have built a 5-step portfolio diagnostic that unearths these opportunities. 

The diagnostic considers key business drivers combined with market supply data to score locations by viability for a flexible workspace solution.

  • Step 1: We analyse key business drivers to score locations by their business case for flexibility and assign each location a ‘flex score’
  • Step 2: We identify target locations for flexibility based on the highest overall scores
  • Step 3: We utilize our global research to rank the maturity of flexible workspace supply in the target markets (‘supply score’)
  • Step 4: We overlay the ‘flex score’ with the ‘supply score’ to grade all the opportunities by combined score
  • Step 5: We provide the client with a set of recommendations along with both qualitative and quantitative impacts
