Project Management

ESG Workplace Solutions provides structured workplace project management and move management for office relocations, refurbishments, reconfigurations and multi-site workplace change programmes. From initial planning and stakeholder coordination through to move delivery and final handover, we provide one accountable lead across the complete project.

Our role is to protect business continuity while coordinating the people, suppliers, technology, furniture, programme and operational dependencies behind workplace change. The result is a controlled transition with clear responsibilities, measurable progress and fewer surprises.

Where most moves fail is not the lifting — it’s the coordination. We manage the detail, dependencies, stakeholders and timelines to reduce risk, minimise disruption and keep your organisation operational throughout the change.

A Single Accountable Lead, Full Programme Control

You’ll have a dedicated Project or Move Manager as your primary point of contact, responsible for planning, governance, communication and delivery.

We align the programme around your operational requirements and critical deadlines, coordinating the different workstreams so that everyone understands what needs to happen, when it needs to happen and who is responsible.

Our approach is built around clear planning, controlled execution and consistent communication from initial survey through to project close-out.

What Our Workplace Project Management Covers

Every workplace project is different, but our role remains consistent: own the plan, coordinate the parts and deliver the outcome.

Typical scope includes:

  • Discovery & mobilisation: stakeholder workshops, site surveys, requirements capture and project objectives
  • Programme planning: milestones, phasing, dependencies and resource scheduling
  • Move strategy: decant plans, departmental sequencing, pilot moves and out-of-hours working
  • Supplier coordination: IT, fit-out, M&E, security, furniture, cleaning and building management
  • Risk & compliance: RAMS, access constraints, lifting plans, permits and health & safety coordination
  • Communications: stakeholder updates, user guidance, FAQs and move-day briefings
  • Readiness & assurance: checklists, snag tracking, go/no-go gates and contingency planning
  • Handover & close-out: post-move support, lessons learned and documentation handover

Move Management That Keeps People Productive

Move management isn’t simply logistics. It is the coordination of people, assets, technology and workplace requirements through a period of operational change.

We design and manage the move around your organisation so employees understand what is happening, critical activities remain protected and the new workplace is ready when your teams arrive.

Move Management deliverables can include:

  • Department-by-department move schedules and desk allocation support
  • Labelling strategies and clear packing/unpacking guidance
  • Critical-path coordination for IT and day-one readiness
  • Asset tracking and chain-of-custody where required
  • On-site move-day management, issue resolution and live reporting
  • Post-move support to stabilise operations quickly

Project Management for Corporate & Public-Sector Requirements

For organisations procuring workplace services through formal processes, we can support the governance, documentation and reporting requirements expected by corporate and public-sector stakeholders.

This can include:

  • Documented methodologies and management plans
  • Defined roles, responsibilities and escalation routes
  • Agreed reporting cycles with clear KPIs and RAID logs
  • Risk, programme and change-control documentation
  • Evidence-led planning supporting auditability and assurance
  • Clear project records from mobilisation through to handover

This creates an accountable project structure while giving stakeholders visibility throughout delivery.

Complex Workplace Projects, Controlled Delivery

Our project and move management approach can support:

  • Phased office relocations designed to maintain business-as-usual operations
  • Moves within live environments where sequencing and access are critical
  • Multi-site workplace programmes requiring consistent standards across multiple locations
  • Reconfigurations and internal moves linked to refurbishment, consolidation or organisational change
  • Technology and furniture workstreams requiring coordination with the wider workplace programme

Whether the requirement involves one department or a complex multi-stage programme, the objective remains the same: controlled delivery with minimum disruption.

ESG Considerations Built Into Workplace Change

Workplace change creates decisions around furniture, technology, surplus assets, waste, procurement and social value.

We incorporate practical ESG considerations into project planning so sustainability is managed alongside programme, cost, risk and operational requirements — rather than being treated as an afterthought.

Where appropriate, this can include furniture reuse and redeployment, donation routes, responsible recycling, asset traceability and clear reporting on project outcomes.

This allows organisations to make more informed workplace decisions while creating measurable environmental and social value from the assets and resources already available to them. Read more about how ESG in the workplace informs project planning and delivery.
