The fact, that it is possible to have the workplace outside the office, the company needs to analyze how well they use the office space they rent. Studies show that many offices have a very low utilization level, which means savings opportunities appear. The way the offices are used has changed a lot, when companies are working on a project basis to a greater extent. This requires that spaces for project teams are available. A good work place has an open solution with access to conference room, smaller meeting rooms and telephone base. Premises should be bright, well-silencing and maintain a pleasant climate. There should be natural forums where staff can meet and talk. Moreover, it is essential that the work place premises are well adapted for its operations, organization and image.
