Description

In these days of rapid business change and re-organisation an increasing number of facilities and other managers are becoming involved in fitting out office space. Even quite small projects can involve identifying and sequencing a wide range of tasks, tight budgeting and financial control, setting up and managing a project team and extensive liaison with users.

This workshop leads delegates through the processes involved in planning and project managing a building fit-out and move. Syndicate sessions will cover space planning and building service offerings and a move checklist is included in the documentation.

A botched project can result in missed deadlines, cost overruns, unhappy users and, sometimes, a ruined FM reputation.

In this two day course the speaker takes delegates step by step through the key processes, and you will take away comprehensive documentation.
