Do you offer property asset management advice?

The primary role of a property management surveyor is to understand and help implement the client’s strategy for their portfolio. Our teams work closely with other colleagues across our multi-disciplinary business to deliver a considered and collaborative approach to property management, with the ultimate aim of driving up the client’s property returns.
What is Cost Benefit Analysis (CBA) ?
What is Cost Benefit Analysis (CBA) ?

CBA is a simple way to bring the financial (NPC) and the non-financial (qualitative scores) together to calculate the cost per unit of benefit. The option with the lowest cost per unit of benefit therefore delivers the most benefits for the lowest cost, and represents the preferred option.
What are the options for Metrics & Benchmarking?
What are the options for Metrics & Benchmarking?

A summary of the options can also be compared against key metrics, such as:

• Square metres per staff member or full-time equivalent (FTE)

• Desk to staff ratio

• Running cost per square metre

• Running cost per staff member/FTE

We can then benchmark these metrics against other organisations that we have undertaken similar work for, and provide a performance analysis. The outcome of this approach is a concise document that captures the future estate requirement, and plots the route through implementation with a preferred option that meets both the cost and quality aspirations of the client. This work is often done in tandem with staff consultation, relocation advice, and architectural and space planning, all of which Carter Jonas, as a multi-disciplinary business, can provide.
