Move/Add/Change
In today’s constantly changing workplaces high churn rates make the resulting moves, adds and changes (M/A/C) increasingly expensive. Moving a single person often involves a coordinated effort from an interdepartmental team comprised of members from facility planning, IT, telecomm, the help desk, a move management company and customer Move/Add/Changeservice staff. Recently, IFMA suggested that the per-unit cost averages $650 for each individual moved.

Now consider having to move large groups of workers following a company-wide downsizing, reorganization, merger or acquisition and it’s easy to see where things can get both complicated and expensive. CenterStone’s move management application provides the most robust and easy-to-use solutions available, simplifying single-person and large, project-based moves.

CenterStone’s robust workflow engine manages the process, from initial requests through approvals, execution of moves and post-occupancy evaluations (POE). CenterStone users can quickly design multiple ‘what-if’ scenarios, incorporating plans for relocations, renovations, adjacencies, consolidations and corporate reorganizations – all based on existing information and/or future requirements. This data is then readily presentable to all stakeholders so that informed decisions can be made and plans executed with the utmost efficiency.

CenterStone M/A/C functionality allows users to:

  • Seamlessly plan, manage and execute both tactical small moves, as well as strategic large scale relocations.
  • Reduce employee ‘churn’ costs by reducing the number of moves that are executed every year through more effective, proactive space planning.
  • Facilitate project tracking, reporting, planning and design.
  • Create an unlimited number of proposed (“what-if”) floor plan scenarios to support move planning and disaster recovery.
  • Automatically generate move lists with corresponding data on business unit occupation with personnel, assigned assets and inventory selections to locations.
  • Distribute work orders for move execution using built-in Operations Management functionality.
  • Automate one-person moves using intranet-based requests, or via simple drag and drop actions from human resources lists.
  • Create move projects that reflect ‘as built’ or ‘proposed’ portfolios.
  • Update M/A/C lists with changes for any phase of a move.
