Management of Space and Moves

Information

Effective planning and the creation of a good strategy depends on quality information. Our people are expert in gathering and collating information from drawings, interviews and physical surveys. We will gather information about your plans for the future so that we can take these into account in the planning process.We understand that this information is subject to revision and so we will build contingencies into our planning process.This mass of information will then be distilled and presented to you graphically and in report form so that we can together interpret it and extrapolate some solutions worthy of further exploration.We provide the following Information Services:CAD ServicesSpace Occupancy ReportingWorkspace EvaluationUser ConsultationCAFM System / Database InstallationCAFM System / Database ManagementScroll down to read more about these services...CAD servicesCAlibre is able to provide a range of CAD staff with full working knowledge of the major CAD packages.

Our staff can help champion these benefits to others within your organisation.

CAlibre can identify pitfalls and benefits of individual CAFM systems. Can adapt and refine standard database reports to meet your needs.

Strategy

Our view of strategy is not some airy-fairy vision based on a vague idea of what might work. We will produce ideas based on sound research backed up with facts, figures and drawings showing exactly what the new working environment will deliver.First, we will help you to identify the future nature and shape of your organisation. Here we may build in the ability to cope with unanticipated changes in terms of common space which could be recovered if required.Then we will apply this information to your building(s). This will be in the form of block layout and stacking plans based on the organisation’s needs for adjacency and communication.Detailed space plans will follow showing the furniture and equipment of each individual. We will demonstrate the nature of the new workplace with illustrations and three-dimensional computer models of furniture layouts and building refurbishment.By the use of work place assessment, CAlibre Consultancy is able to identify impediments to optimum workplace productivity and can provide cost effective alternatives.

Implementation

A major project of reorganisation can be a major disruption to your continuing operation. It need not be so. CAlibre will manage the implementation of the changes through on-site Project and Moves Managers. Our experienced team members will integrate with your operational staff to ensure a smooth transition on time and within budget.We have a keen appreciation of the need for changing needs and priorities during the project and we will work hard to ensure that these are dealt with without penalties in cost and time.Staff may be reluctant to accept change and part of our service includes communication to explain the reasons for the changes and workshops to familiarise staff with the implications of the forthcoming reorganisation.
