We have some Exciting News!
We're currently installing UVC emitters in the air-conditioning ducts of our client's buildings.
UVC is scientifically proven to inactivate viruses, Bacteria, Mould, and fungal spores.
UVC interacts with the DNA / RNA causing a reaction between two molecules of thymine, one of the bases that make up DNA / RNA, (the ladders on the helical spiral)
UVC radiation causes the rungs on the ladder to warp and connect to adjacent rungs causing the strand of DNA or RNA unviable.

How we work

In order to cause the meaningful change, we must start with People, we have to understand and identify how individual people in each organisation currently work; defining different styles of work, identifying unique working methods, quantify risks and to implement and review control measures to address those risks and looking for ways for each member of a team to maximise productivity, safety and enjoyment.

We dive deep into the organisation and analyse how, why, when and where. We listen.

After understanding, we start designing, however, we involve the staff in this process and communicate our ideas.

We found that engaged staff are more likely to yield positive responses to change thus shortening and shallowing the productivity dip that inevitably follows any change.

We partner with HR, IT & FM as executive stakeholders.

By fully understanding & engaging staff we are able to produce results that:

. Provide a safe envoronment mitigating risks to staff and business contacts.

. Increase staff engagement by designing for particular activities

. Increase staff retention by providing staff choice of work modality and dynamic, creative environments

. Increase the efficiency of staff activity

. Mediation of wasted space

. Shorten timelines for design and construction

. Enhance access and collaboration, providing staff anytime,
anywhere flexibility

We carry out an analysis of current people and space utilisation to initially determine current usage and determine those areas of the office that have physical problems and opportunities. We discover; Who is there? What do they do? What are the problems? In what ways the space excels? Each component part of the analysis requires extensive consultation with Executive and staff to understand How, Why and When. On understanding the essentials a comparison of existing space utilisation with leading trends and best practices can be made and gaps and opportunities be determined.

Analyse

Existing workspace

Having identified the existing ways of working and the potential for implementation of different ways of working we will have developed a “Workplace strategy blueprint” which identifies design principals. The design principals will identify a strategy that specifically meets the determined outcomes and informs future development of the working environment that will incorporate the social distancing and exemplary hygiene measures that will be an important part of the transition. The design will be developed, communicated, revised and stakeholders will be engaged.

Blueprint

Design the change and the space

The design will be documented; Drawings & Specifications and the works scoped and separated into sub contract tender packages. Tenders will be called for each component of the works. On Closing of the tender a complete scope of works and associated costs will be provided that includes a time line for the works to commence and complete. As the construction stage of the transformation is underway an education program will be initiated, providing tours for staff to the site and local areas, providing education as to the new environment, and local infrastructure culture and transport. Normally these education sessions are completed in association with personnel department staff.

Construct & Educate

New workspace

We help companies transform the working environment to make the space safer, more relevant, more enjoyable, more engaging and therefore more profitable

We realise that Space, People & Technology interact in dynamic ways that influence a business’s profitability and the lives of the staff who make up the business.

We take a holistic approach in initiating change in a workplace, we look at the three components of a workplace and design a change that is responsive to the organisation's goals, looking at the workplace as a complex interrelational entity.

Our philosophy represents a paradigm shift in the way the modern workplace is developed, we place the process and direction of change as the objective and address each component as integral to the path.

We believe if we get the process of change right the resulting workspace will be better, more efficient, cause less pain, produce less waste and be more enjoyable for all.

We provide a turnkey solution, which provides clients

• Provide a safe and healthy workplace • Increase staff engagement by     designing for particular activities
