Move and Change Management
With churn rates often 100% in today’s dynamic workplaces, the resulting ‘moves, adds and changes’ (MAC) can cost an organization incredible amounts of money.  If you think of moving one person from one workstation to another, it often involves a team from facility planning, IT, telecomm, help desk, move management company personnel and customer service people.  And multiply this one move by hundreds when consolidations are required following mergers and acquisitions.  CenterStone provides extensive move management functionality that streamlines both tactical, single-person moves and large scale relocations, utilizing an intuitive user interface.

Space planners and move managers can create complex ‘what-if’ scenario plans for relocations, renovations, space planning, consolidations and corporate reorganizations-all based on existing source information and/or future requirements.  This ensures that companies make the most efficient move decisions before the first box is packed and moved saving both time and money.

CenterStone’s robust workflow engine manages the process from requests through work-order approvals, routing, space management, execution of moves and post-occupancy evaluations (POE).  A user can:

  • Seamlessly plan, manage and execute both tactical small moves, as well as strategic large scale relocations
  • Reduce employee ‘churn’ costs by reducing the number of moves that are executed every year through more effective proactive space planning
  • Facilitate project tracking, reporting, planning and design
  • Create an unlimited number of proposed scenarios (‘what-if’)
  • Automatically generate move lists with data on business unit occupation with personnel and assigned assets to locations
  • Distribute work orders for move execution using the Operations Management functionality
  • Automate one-person moves using intranet-based requests, or via simple drag and drop from human resource lists
  • Create move projects that reflect ‘as built’ or proposed portfolios
  • Update move/add/changes (MAC) lists with changes for any phase of a move

With CenterStone, you can analyze, plan and execute relocations, due to mergers and acquisitions, downsizing or business process improvements (i.e. moving scientists together from different groups to increase collaboration).  This will improve accuracy and reduce the time workers are not able to be productive during move projects.
