☀️ Whether it’s a lunchtime run, cycling to work in the morning, or an evening workout before heading home, warmer weather invites more active lifestyles. Offices with end-of-trip (EOT) facilities make it easier for people to integrate exercise into their daily routines.

It’s a pattern that occurs time and time again. Organisations feel secure with 18–24 months left on their lease, assuming they have plenty of time. However, a closer look often reveals competing timelines – such as budgeting cycles, capital expenditure planning, or long-term strategic goals – that demand earlier action.

At Catalyst Group, we recognise that decision-making in office fitouts isn’t just about reusing materials — it’s about exploring all available options to create flexible, sustainable, and cost-effective spaces.

Workplaces have changed a lot in recent years, and businesses are still figuring out how to make office spaces work for everyone.

Are you experiencing the challenges of fluctuating office occupancy in this new era of flexible working?

Choosing the right office space is about more than just finding a location — it’s about ensuring the space truly aligns with your operational needs, supports your team’s productivity, and maximises your investment.
