Workplace

Intro

Placemaking Workplaces

These days employees expect a more engaging and productive experience, beyond just a desk and a chair. By creating a collaborative workspace, an organization becomes an effective environment that optimizes the health and happiness of its workers, with the goal to generate ideas and solutions that drive greater productivity and success for your business.

On the flip-side, in today’s highly competitive office leasing space, building owners and landlords are engaging tenants in an ongoing dialogue to understand their workplace needs and provide amenities that matter most. Engaging proactive project development partnerships within this space are a smarter strategy to ensure that buildings remain competitive.

Project Management

Project Management is about more than simply coordinating consultants and contractors. Part art and part science, professional project management requires dedicated leadership, enthusiasm, clear communication, decisive action, and meticulous attention to detail. We analyse and uncover exactly what our clients’ project requirements are, from small-scale through to multi-billion-dollar projects. We map challenges and risk whilst planning a considered solution-driven route, taking the vision from inception and planning, through design, procurement, construction, and occupation (and anything else in between!); exactly as turnkey services should be.

AIG

American International Group, Inc. (AIG), one of the leading global insurance organizations with over 100 years of experience, were relocating from their existing offices in Dubai International Finance Centre (DIFC) to a new 1,300m² premises in Building 8, Gate Village, DIFC. Compass was appointed to provide Project and Cost Management services to ensure the seamless delivery of the design and build of the new Middle East office, which incorporated the AIG corporate branding and was bench-marked from AIGʼs Hamburg and Milan offices, whilst adhering to their subtle brand colour palette. The result is a crisp, modern, functional workspace that incorporates a spacious boardroom which can accommodate 24+ people, open workstations, several meeting rooms, collaboration areas, and reception. Fabric covered acoustic wall panels provide welcoming insulated meeting rooms for those important 1:1 meetings and teleconferences, and quiet focus time. Furthermore, the new office has an inviting pantry area with a variety seating options that is drenched in natural light from the large adjoining outdoor terrace.
