Office relocation is one of the most challenging aspects of a
facility professional's job. This challenge and the thrill of
meeting it are even greater for members of the relocation team who
have had little or no prior relocation experience. To begin with,
there are the thousand and one logistical details that go into the
designing, planning, and implementation of a relocation project.
Then, there is the seemingly impossible task of keeping affected
employees happy and supplied with everything they need to perform
their jobs--without running into massive cost overruns.
The Office Relocation Sourcebook takes the sting out of relocation.
Written by an author with twenty-five years' experience in facility
management and human factors design, this valuable resource
provides all the background information and practical guidance
needed to pull off a cost-effective relocation project with a
minimum of disruption. These methods and techniques are appropriate
for firms of any size, regardless of the number of employees being
relocated.
Writing in a warm, conversational style, peppered with handy
checklists, summaries, and survey tools, Dennis Attwood guides you
step by step through the entire relocation process, from the
initial planning stages to post-project evaluation. He provides
coverage of nuts-and-bolts issues through the human factors side of
the relocation equation. For instance, Attwood explores workers'
reasons for resisting relocation and describes innovative
communication techniques that can substantially reduce employee
resistance and the common adverse side effects of disrupting the
workplace. In his discussion of work system planning, he compares
traditional design arrangements, such as the neighborhood and team
concepts, with alternative workplace strategies, including reuse of
existing office space, and the office outside of the company.
The enclosed disk supplies a variety of useful tools and, in
addition to the forms and checklists found in the book, arms you
with a valuable relocation template.
Make your next office relocation project a success with The Office
Relocation Sourcebook.
