Your offices don't reflect your brand - Time for change?
Situation: Due to significant growth and a new brand Hughes Insurance decided to re-brand and refurbish it's 12 branches, along with their HQ. This required a review of the use and the design of each branch office and HQ with a complete refurbishment of each.
Pain Points
|
Accommodating Needs |
The branch offices needed to be remodelled to accommodate not only their current but also their projected future operational needs while at the same time reflect their new brand. |
|
Design |
The client needed to allow for growth in staff numbers, more flexible working, better communication and staff participation. It was also necessary to reflect this new brand throughout each branch office. |
|
Cost |
The client required accurate costs for both fit-out and furniture for each branch office and HQ. |
|
Implementation |
The client needed someone to guide them through the complete project from design and costing, through to project management and refurbishment particularly since they had to continue to use the premises while the work was being completed. |
Solution: Office Interior Solutions worked with Hughes Insurance in the design and space planning of the new branch offices. On agreement of design and space planning we completed the office refurbishment and supplied and installed all of the furniture. The HQ was significantly expanded catering for 250 people and was substantially refurbished and refurnished.
