Aeris Workplace Transformation Completed on Time and Budget
A brand-new workplace, on a compressed timeline, without a penny over budget
Aeris needed an existing fitted space transformed into a workplace that felt entirely their own - fast. iO Partners applied rigorous cost planning, continuous value engineering, and tight on-site coordination to deliver a tailored 2,000 sqm hybrid office on program and within budget, ready for immediate occupation from day one.
Someone Else's Office. Aeris' Brand. Almost No Time.
Aeris had secured their space - but it came pre-fitted for someone else. The challenge wasn't starting from a blank canvas; it was something harder: taking an existing layout and transforming it quickly into an environment that felt unmistakably like Aeris, without the luxury of time or an open-ended budget.
The brief demanded speed without shortcuts, and cost discipline without compromising on the quality or coherence of the final result. Every design decision had to be weighed against both brand requirements and financial constraints - simultaneously, in real time, on a fast-track programme.
Cost Discipline and Design Precision, Running in Parallel
- Provided end-to-end project management for the rapid adaptation of the existing fitted space to Aeris' functional and brand requirements
- Led cost planning and continuous financial monitoring from day one - ensuring every decision was evaluated against the agreed budget framework
- Applied value engineering throughout to find efficient, high-quality solutions wherever evolving design requirements created cost pressure
- Coordinated all stakeholders and on-site works to maintain alignment and momentum across a compressed delivery programme
- Managed sequencing and workflows to eliminate downtime and ensure smooth, uninterrupted execution from start to handover
Ready to Walk Into. On the Day It Was Promised.
- 2,000 sqm delivered on programme - ready for immediate occupation without delay or defect
- Budget maintained throughout - continuous cost control prevented overrun despite evolving design requirements
- A workspace that reflects Aeris' brand identity and supports hybrid working and collaboration from day one
- Value engineering applied at every stage - quality preserved without sacrificing financial discipline
"Speed and budget discipline are rarely easy to reconcile - but when project management is done right, you don't have to choose between them."
