The major focus when relocating in office environments is on professionals and the individual resources and infrastructure they draw on to remain billable and meet their deadlines. Strategic planning and Project Management, coupled with soft people skills ensure these challenges are met.
Additionally, the interdependent nature of the office environment means organisations cannot be compartmentalised; they must move as one organism.
Communicating the process and procedures to staff is very important. Atlantis pays special attention to communication by implementing move newsletters, personalised move instructions, suggestions boxes, and staff workshops, to name a few.
IT infrastructure and equipment are an intrinsic part of the day-to-day running of practically every modern business. Atlantis uses its experience to manage all your IT systems with the goal of minimal downtime.
Atlantis has achieved seamless transitions for large numbers of staff using their leading edge analysis and planning methods.

Atlantis has been with us for the past 11 years. Our relationship has included internal and external moves of a large number of staff and the pack and unpacking of all our offices and general filing area.
I have found them to be professional in all aspects of our move, hence our long term partnership.

Clayton UTZ
PricewaterhouseCoopers were undergoing extensive internal restructuring over an 18 month period. With relocation impacting over 4,000 highly paid professionals, it was imperative that disruption did not prevent consultants meeting tight deadlines and remaining billable.
We write to thank Atlantis for the successful relocation of our organisation to our new premises.
We were able to commence work first thing on Monday morning without a loss in productivity. This would not have been possible without the assistance, diligence and thoroughness of the team at Atlantis.
I would like to thank your Project Manager who was always thinking ahead, able to resolve any problems, maintained a friendly and personable relocation team and lastly always managed to keep your client satisfied.
