11. OHL Member Tips
“Get ahead of the game! Start planning as far
in advance as possible and be sure to keep
everyone informed of your target move date.”“ “Fight for ample time and a decent budget to
work with!”
“
“Get as much lead-time as you can, and then
assume it will take twice as long as you
forecast. Manage everyone’s expectations
accordingly.”
“ “Start early. Add 20% to what you think you’re
going to spend.”
“

square foot for a basic TI project. Efficiency of
scale allows for lower cost per square foot on
larger projects; the difference may be $120-$220

33. Open space only works when balanced with quiet focus space.
Space needs to align with culture, policy, social protocols.
Health and Wellness in workplace are expected by staff.
Get IT/AV on board early on.
Involve Human Resources (HR) and Marketing groups.
Acoustics in wide open environments should not be ignored.
Branding for the new culture and workplace experience.
