Why Work With a Relocation Project Manager During Your Next Business Move?

While you may think you can tackle a corporate move on your own, you have numerous advantages to working with a relocation project manager during your next office move. For example, they may save you substantial amounts of time and money. Discover a few ways both of these may happen.

A Relocation Project Manager Becomes Your Single Point of Contact

The last thing that most business owners have is extra time to deal with the many components of an office move. Unfortunately, business relocations involve many moving parts with various participants, which can be time-consuming. Some of these participants include:

• Your employees
• Your clients
• Your vendors
• Leasing agents
• The moving company
• Telecommunication, data, and IT providers

Depending on your type of business, you might work with many others.

Do you have time to sit down and have conversations, make multiple calls, or wait for return calls with each of these people? Someone must have regular contact with all these people during your move.

When you work with a relocation project manager, this is a role that they can take on. Not only will they have the time, but they will come with the fresh energy and optimism necessary to get the job done. Project managers are trained and will provide diligent planning and execution of the numerous tasks that need to happen throughout your move.

Having a single point of contact for all things move-related will free up your time and ensure that they provide everyone with the same information. This consistent information will ensure everyone is on the same page and schedule.

A Relocation Project Manager Can Help Maximize Your Space Usage

Office space in NYC and the surrounding tri-state area can be expensive. The cost often depends on the location and the amount of space your business needs.

For example, in 2021, a Class A space in Hudson Yards or Manhattan West can run $125.34 per sq. ft., Midtown South averaged $99.22 per sq. ft. and Midtown Manhattan cost about $82.56. If you are willing to rent Class B or Class C space, you can lower your costs to an average of $61.66 or $51.94 per sq. ft., respectively.

With such costs, maximizing your space's use is essential. Your project manager can help you create floor plans and layouts that will work best for you and your business while providing flexibility for future growth. Once you agree upon a design, they might even be willing to present it to respective parties and communicate the advantages the new design provides for each of them. 

A Relocation Project Manager Can Help Reduce Your Stress

Many people stated that moving is more stressful than divorcing, getting married, or having children. These people were talking about the stress associated with residential moves, so you can imagine the stress involved in a commercial move.

Not only do you have to worry about the disruption of your business, but you also have to consider your employees, clients, and other stakeholders. A project manager reduces this stress by removing many of the move-related time-critical components off your plate.

They will keep your move on schedule and budget and keep you up to date. You can focus on your business's daily demands.
