PREPARING YOUR OFFICE SPACE FOR 2026

As the year comes to a close, it’s a good time to take stock of your office space and how it impacts your operations. As a business owner, you have no shortage of issues to consider when working to optimize your operations. Your office space is one that is oftentimes not given the priority it needs. A simple review can make certain that your space is a benefit and that you aren’t leaving any opportunities for improvement on the table.

Check Your Office Space Lease

Review your current lease to make sure it still aligns with your business needs. Some things to consider when reviewing:

• Whether your team has grown or needs more space
• Upcoming lease renewal dates for all your locations
• Opportunities to adjust layouts or suite sizes

Sometimes small changes can make a big difference. For example, a tenant at 1745 & 1811 S. Alma School Road in Mesa rearranged their office layout to create a more open feel, making it easier for teams to work together.

Assess Office Space Layout

It’s a good idea to review how your space supports day-to-day work. Walk through common areas, desks, and meeting spaces. Ask yourself:

• Are any areas overcrowded or underused?
• Can communal spaces be rearranged for better workflow?
• Are meeting areas easy to access and comfortable?

Review Technology

Plain and simple: technology impacts daily productivity. With that being said, it is important to make sure your systems support current needs:

• Conference room equipment for smooth video calls
• Network coverage and Wi-Fi reliability
• Shared devices such as printers and monitors

Focus on Employee Comfort

Employee comfort plays a big role in daily performance. Take a look at lighting, temperature, and air quality. Even small changes, like adding seating near windows or improving break areas, can make a huge difference.
