Considering a conventional office vs. a flexible serviced workspace offering? Our newly released and fully customized True Cost of Operations calculator will help you compare the two options, as well as uncover the real price of utilizing your office space.
This interactive and transparent tool is a real game-changer because it helps you find the right office service while saving you precious time and money.
Let’s dive right in and debunk the myth for the conventional office lease.
Conventional office vs. flexible serviced office
Let’s start with a quick overview of the two workspace offerings:
1. Conventional office
A conventional or traditional office is a workspace, which is rented directly from a landlord, usually at a price per square meter per year. Conventional offices are normally offered on long-term leasing and might be a good option for businesses looking to rent a long-term office space for their employees.
Yet, it should be noted that traditional offices do not include maintenance costs and other services. The company needs to hire in-house professionals to take care of all the moving pieces when it comes to managing your office operations.
In addition, many other operational expenses and capital investments are not included in the pricing - utilities (e.g. electricity, water, central heating, ISPs, etc.), network infrastructure, power redundancy, and others.
This means that businesses that opt for a conventional office should consider the expenditure, which can vary depending on the size of the space and the work, which must be executed to tailor the workspace to the organization’s ever-changing needs.
2. Flexible serviced office
Flexible serviced offices like the workspaces we offer at Campus X provide spaces with the price being calculated per number of workstations as opposed to square meters of office space. This is more cost-effective as you pay for the exact office space you currently need as opposed to large amounts of space you’re not fully utilizing.
Also, usually, the pricing plans cover various costly services like water and electricity, Facility and IT management, refreshing beverages for your team, access to collaboration areas and meeting rooms, and many others.
This end-to-end experience takes the pressure off business leaders and provides a complete and hassle-free office experience.
