Office buildouts can be complex projects with various factors to consider. Whether you are relocating your headquarters to Miami or renovating your existing high-rise office space, there some important things to know before getting started. Here are a few things you shouldn’t lose sight of when planning an office buildout in South Florida.

• Building codes and regulation requirements – Office buildouts must comply with local building codes and regulations, and the permitting process across Miami is notorious for causing headaches. Hire a local contractor who understands the specific construction needs of the area to help your office project run in a more efficient manner.

• Existing operations from other units – To accurately plan the needs for your office space within a shared high-rise building, you must also know about the operations in other units. Don’t neglect this step in an effort to speed up your project, as it could have a big impact on the design and construction of your project. 

• Your specific building’s rules – In Miami, no two buildings are necessarily alike in terms of their rules for vendors or construction. Your contracting team must be aware of them and plan around potentially restricted hours of operation or accommodate any unique building requirements related to plumbing, mechanical, fire, etc. This could also include strategically planning your high-noise and high-impact work around any of the building’s restrictions.
