Instant helped this global firm find a custom-designed workspace

This multinational professional services firm had a small team based in Curaçao. Having decreasing its headcount in the area over the past few years, the client was now in an office building that was far too big and was also starting to fall into disrepair. Faced with an outdated workspace and ever-increasing running costs, the client was keen to relocate to a more modern and efficient office.

To deliver an on-brand 430 sq. m. workspace fit-out and relocation for 35 staff, within a short deadline and a strict budget.

• The client had already identified its preferred office building, but had limited design and build expertise in the local market
• Client wanted a fast and best value solution, but the construction industry in Curaçao had a reputation for overrunning on cost and time
• Lack of best-practice in workplace design was resulting in a fragmented and inconsistent brand
• Client was faced with complexities around self delivery, from high costs to the lack of one-stop shop providers in the local area
• Client also had to consider the relocation of 35 employees from its existing premises to the new office

• Instant assisted in negotiating best terms on the client’s lease and exit costs within the building
• Working closely with the client, Instant leveraged its market expertise to devise a design and build strategy to meet their brief and project timescales
