Economic review: Office premises costs — fitting out: 2

In this second of the two articles covering fitting out costs, we shall concentrate on a detailed analysis of continual fitting out. This includes such areas of work as relocating sections of office interiors, creating totally new spaces within existing layouts and incorporating new technology equipment. As there are many variables under this particular heading we have compiled brief histories for our sample buildings to show the range of events possible throughout the life of the buildings (see Table One). Table One shows costs for Buildings A & B only. Costs for Building C would be of a broadly similar nature but of slightly higher cost in all cases.
