Businesses and landlords needing advice on how to safely bring their staff and tenants back to the office after the COVID-19 lockdown can now receive recommendations within 48-hours from our Workplace Advisory and Project Management teams to provide, quick, detailed and innovative solutions to maximise office capacity – including cost estimates.
Colliers has established that in most corporate offices only 40 per cent of desk spaces will be usable initially when staff return to the office, because social distancing measures will be expected to continue for the next few months. This means that unless significant changes are made to layout and office design, many people will have to remain working remotely for the foreseeable future.
The Back to Work Navigator service will evaluate five areas where changes can be made to maximise office capacity and support productivity; design, navigation, behaviour, hygiene and technology. The service is available to occupiers as well as landlords needing to plan the reopening of their multi-let office blocks.

Across EMEA construction projects are being impacted by the COVID19 virus. Challenges may include increased health & safety measures, restricted access for site inspections and surveys, supply chain delays, labour shortages and closed construction sites.
The health of our communities is of course the most important consideration. Where sites and buildings are closed and projects paused, we can support our clients during the ‘downtime’ to plan for efficient, accelerated, meaningful project re-starts when possible.
To assist you, we have developed our EMEA Project Management Briefing for COVID19.
