Other Services   How else can we help you? In addition to our standard design services, we offer a variety of advanced planning concepts and specialized project management which can greatly streamline the number of details and vendors you have to deal with. Pre-lease/Workletter Analysis Pre-lease/Workletter Analysis is a factual comparison of remodeling or relocation options. Clear data is analyzed on the various characteristics of the buildings under consideration prior to signing a lease. A thorough review and evaluation of the Tenant Workletter and a Building Analysis, coupled with the Programming and a Test-Fit, result in a Building Analysis Report, which, in conjunction with each building’s lease proposal, form the basis on which an educated and informed building selection can be made. Benchmarking Benchmarking allows companies to examine their overall internal performance over time, across different parts of the organization, and against similar companies in the industry. The process results in hard numbers that can be used in making informed strategic decisions related to corporate direction and budget expenditures. Change Management Change Management services are individualized to meet the specific needs of each client, large or small, and their employee user groups through a series of workshops, communication methods and focus groups. Arris has consultants who have developed a method for working with groups of people to facilitate the design process. This process successfully integrates the changes that typically accompany today’s headquarter projects. One of our change management consultants, Avancé, LLC (www.avancellc.com), is a workplace and business consulting firm specializing in innovative strategies for the interior design and architecture communities and the businesses they serve. Move Management Our Move Management consultant, Arrange Relocation Management, assists clients in all aspects of planning, coordinating and managing the execution of a physical relocation. This coordination encompasses all aspects of the move such as, issuing RFP’s, preparing coded furniture and equipment plans, coordinating vendors, assigning move labels and instructions, scheduling move meetings, managing the actual move, and conducting a post move-in walkthrough. These services eliminate the need for a company employee to be burdened with the numerous tasks of coordinating a move.
