1

Initial Situation

  • 45,188 m² GFA, 589 workstations
  • Uncertainty about the current occupancy of existing office buildings
  • Anticipated reduction in staff
  • Decision: Abandonment of one building & relocation of employees to the remaining service buildings

Implementation

  • Using the space available and departmental space requirements, a digital foundation for a space standard was established
  • The potential of all service buildings needed to be assessed – in association with the technical and strategic decision: “Where is the right place for each workstation in the building?”
  • Alternative plans were drawn up, as well as simulations of possible relocations
