Make the most of your space...and increase staff performance.
Your business can only be as successful as your people – and they need a high performance environment to be at their best. The kind of environment where the simple things make the biggest difference...
- The right amount of space to work in; not too much, not too little
- Appropriate storage and adequate lighting
- Being located near the resources you rely on the most
Whether you're reorganizing, building a new location, consolidating locations or just looking to maximize your existing space, these are the kind of details that have a huge impact on how efficiently your business will run.
With a customized Space Planning Analysis that considers the needs of the business, the employees, and the growing role of technology, you get the information needed to create an efficiently designed space that maximizes your capital investment.
Phase 1: Data Gathering
A team of space planning professionals will conduct a thorough audit of your internal operations to collect key data. Gathered through observation and extensive interviews with employees, this data, such as the primary and secondary activities of staff, the interdependencies of individuals and departments, acoustical and privacy needs, and ergonomics, will be used to make appropriate determinations on space needs.
Phase 2: Recommendations on Findings
Compiled into a comprehensive Space Needs Analysis Guide, the findings gathered during Phase 1 are translated into easy-to-understand recommendations for the new space, including:
- Square footage optimization recommendations
- Space determination for current and future growth requirements
- Furniture requirements and configuration recommendations
- Detailed cost/benefit analysis for using modular walls
- Departmental functions and existing conditions
- Equipment needs by role and department
- Storage, security, and climate control requirements
Armed with the necessary data and recommendations, executing a detailed implementation plan is the next logical step. BrandPartners can assist in that as well, offering a complete suite of services, including Project management, interior design, furniture selection, architectural design, construction management and more.

“Space planning is all about movement thru space. Where you have been and where you are going.
Space planning is a design tool. It is not about filling up a space by seeing what will fit into a box, but rather the experience of the entire three dimensional space.
A designer must consider axes of circulation, lines of sight, volumes, planes and negative space along with functional requirements. This approach creates space that appears larger, alive, and offers a sense of place for the human emotions. The workplace becomes inviting, engaging and a more productive experience.”
