Move Management
The success of any move is determined by the attention to detail throughout all phases of your move. A Move Manager will serve as your single point of contact and supervise all move-related activities. They will be the first person on site, and the last to leave and will work closely with your team to understand expectations, protocols, logistics and coordination for a smooth transition into your new space.

Planning
Planning involves high-level coordination between the clients, designers and move managers. Move planning entails coordination from various departments including IT–you need to be able to track not just the move, but the location of the assets tied to the move (the employees chair, phone, laptop, etc.), facilities and telecom groups.

Coordination
Move coordination means getting the right information at the right time to both internal and external vendors to ensure the move happens in the proper order and on time. Being able to not only coordinate with external vendors but having internal coordination within your organization is crucial. Coordination takes place from the moment the move is planned all the way through the process of making sure the move goes as planned and making sure the employee gets into their new location smoothly with little disruption to their work.

Process Review
After the move, a review should be conducted using follow up surveys. How did the move go? Is the employee able to accomplish their job in their new spot? Are they satisfied with how the move went and their new location? Could things have gone better? Did everything get moved in time? This move data can then be analyzed to uncover issues and determine areas for improvement in the future. Did you actually perform as a team and are the employees happy with the process? This process review enables you to continually optimize and improve your move process over time.
