How iO Partners support O2’s workplace strategy

Following the renewal of its lease, global telecommunications provider O2 recognised the need to implement an efficient workplace strategy. Four of its subsidiaries were housed in the current building, and the company sought suitable premises for the Surveillance Centre, which had specific spatial and technological requirements. iO Partners was appointed to project manage this and implement a tailored workplace strategy. 

The team began by conducting a comprehensive assessment of O2's business requirements and needs. They aimed to optimise the space and create a modern work environment capable of adapting to changes over the next decade, which is the period of the renewed lease. The iO Partners team developed a detailed plan to temporarily relocate teams during the renovation period, estimated to take two and a half years.

Through the team’s hard work and due diligence, O2 has a thorough temporary placement and workplace strategy in place. iO Partners will continue to provide support and guidance throughout the renovation process.
