Sometimes the need for office space is urgent. A new contract wins, a team expands, an office tenancy ends unexpectedly, or a remote setup simply stops working.
Whatever the reason, the idea of setting up a professional, functioning office in 48 hours sounds ambitious. But, with the right kind of workspace, it’s entirely achievable.
Start with the right type of space
A traditional office licence won’t get you up and running in 48 hours. The legal process alone takes weeks. What you need is a managed office that’s ready to go: a space that comes with internet already installed, furniture available if you need it, and a team on hand who can sort the practical details quickly.
This is where the managed office model earns its place. The infrastructure is already in place. There’s no fit-out, no waiting for a broadband engineer, no scramble to find a cleaning company.
What to sort on day one
Assuming you’re moving into a furnished, managed office, day one is largely about logistics.
First priority is IT.
At Westmead House in Farnborough, high-speed internet with dedicated lines is included, so you should be connected from the moment you arrive. Set up any forwarding or call handling you need. Brief the reception team on your business and how you’d like calls handled. Walk the space and note anything you want adjusted.
If you’re bringing your own furniture or equipment, arrange delivery for the morning so you’re not waiting around.
What to sort on day two
By day two, the basics should be running. Use the time to get your team settled, test the meeting room setup, and run through any building practicalities like parking allocation, access fobs, and post handling.
If you’ve opted for Westmead House’s optional interior design service in partnership with Cosy Ghar Interior, you’ll have already discussed how to make the space feel like yours from day one.
It’s as simple as that. At Westmead House, the heavy lifting has been done for you, so you and your team can move in and start working from day one.
