R&D/Factory

Amidst the ever-evolving compositions and demands of market, more and more businesses are attempting to innovate management strategies and review R&D positioning. In the past, the R&D facilities are typically planned, maintained and operated mainly by initiative of the R&D department itself. However, recent R&D initiatives are more influenced by business management strategies, from the planning phase all the way to the operation phase. The key for success in such projects is a solid “R&D business strategy” which directly links to the management. What is essential in building a R&D business strategy is the integration of top-down decisions from the business management, and bottom-up proposals from R&D operations, based on which to structure the facility.

Office

In today’s world, businesses in all industries need to have global perspective. Efforts towards carbon neutrality is one of the initiatives to which businesses are expected to commit. For office projects, it has become more important to demonstrate corporate value as a part of branding, create space for innovation, and ensure facilities suitable for web conferences to meet with prevailing demands. Also for tenant office projects, in addition to the improvement of profitability and branding to differentiate from other competitors, new requirements are emerging in accordance with the evolving working style such as home office. It is a pressing challenge for property owners to update the concept of tenant business, to deal with decreasing demand of office spaces.
