Our Process
Your organization is not just moving into a newly designed office. Your organization is moving toward the future of your business. That’s why we aim to make this process as smooth as possible. During this time, two main factors can affect productivity and increase the cost of the move:
At MMK Consulting, we combine change management with logistical relocation management to reduce the cost of moving and keep your employees productive. We include every member of your organization in the momentum of progress and change and provide training so your employees are prepared for relocation and know what to expect in their new work environment.
We design a relocation process that is specific to your organization and incorporates four distinct services: project planning, communication, data collection, and implementation.
Project planning and strategy
We approach your move strategically to maximize the time and effort that go into your real estate investment. We consider all the details, so you can know everything is accounted for.
- Develop and maintain project schedule using MS Project or other preferred software
- Identify objectives and constraints for desktop technology and infrastructure relocation
- Coordinate with your existing project team including project manager, architect, contractor, technology consultants, etc.
- Help select and manage moving company
- Oversee management of all move-related vendors: movers, technology consultants, etc.
- Provide guidance for the ordering of supplies, plants, vending, facility artwork, and other vendors necessary for relocation
Communication and people management
We maintain clear, effective communication with critical parties so everyone is informed and aligned. We focus on creating a positive, energizing change experience for employees, so they’re excited to establish new routines and processes.
