Commercial Office Space London
Some landlords might describe themselves as providers of flexible spaces, but sometimes these are just short lease arrangements. They risk all the trappings, liabilities and obligations of leasing and may lack specific services that the occupier needs.
To help make the distinction between traditional leasing and flexible spaces, we suggest the following guidance on genuine flexible spaces provided by professional operators, the true curators of flexible office spaces:
Serviced Offices
Private offices leased on flexible terms fully fitted out spaces inclusive of service charges and rates, usually with reception services.
Private Flexible Offices
Might be best categorised under two types, (A) Standard and (B) Hybrid. These spaces usually account for 80% or more of the flexible operators’ curated space.
Standard
An office leased and fitted out by an operator to the occupier’s specification, who then pays a monthly licencing fee. Typically taken on a short term (9 months – 3 years).
The arrangement is usually by fixed price per/ desk office for an ‘all-inclusive offer. Includes a fairly comprehensive range of services including, reception services, internet access, refreshments, and meeting rooms (sometimes chargeable). Other ‘bolt-on’ services might be provided for an additional charge.
Managed
A managed office for customers who want their own space but don’t want the commitment associated with managing it. Sometimes with independent access, these might be described as premium spaces for HQ or larger businesses and institutions. Savings can be achieved through efficient layout and design. These are often fitted out by the operator or service provider. These spaces might be of particular benefit to those organisations looking to manage their lease assets in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS 16). Typically short term (12 months or less).
Co-Working Spaces
On membership of per desk basis (fixed-desk or hot-desk arrangements). These account for 10-20% of the operator’s space. They provide a sociable working environment where users can network, collaborate, and do business with each other.
The fixed monthly fee includes unlimited access on a first-come, first-served basis (more limited on a pay-as-you-go arrangement). Includes internet access, refreshments, meeting rooms (sometimes chargeable) and a curated calendar of events.
Co-working communities include freelancers, start-ups and small businesses operating in open environments. The network collaborates in shared spaces. Their environments are fully serviced and are equipped with resources and facilities that would find in an office environment. These coworking environments remove barriers to entry and provide flexibility and scaling for rapid growth and development.
