JLL and Tétris Design and Build delivers an end-to-end real estate solution for Lenovo, transforming a shared coworking space into a customized environment that encourages return to office
Challenge
Lenovo sought to create a positive and welcoming office space that would encourage staff to return to the office for greater collaboration. Their previous coworking environment offered limited inspiration and couldn’t reflect the company's innovative culture or support their collaborative needs.
With an existing global service level agreement in place, Lenovo turned to us for comprehensive support in this workplace transformation, from identifying the right property to creating a space that would impress clients and motivate employees.
Approach
JLL and Tétris implemented a combined approach that leveraged multiple service lines. The process began with Tenant Representation to source the optimal property that would meet Lenovo's specific requirements.
Once the ideal location was secured, JLL Project and Development Services managed the construction while providing oversight and budget tracking. Tétris handled the design, build, and implementation portions of the project. The integrated team delivered comprehensive services including cost management, FFE procurement, and occupational health and safety management.
Throughout the process, we used sustainability-driven scoring applications, informing decisions that aligned with environmental priorities while maintaining focus on creating a workspace that would truly serve Lenovo's business objectives.
Results
The project delivered a functional and excellent office space on time and within budget. Lenovo now has an inspiring workspace they can proudly showcase to clients and employees, successfully achieving their primary goal of encouraging staff to return to the office for enhanced collaboration.
The hands-on, efficient approach across all project facets resulted in exceptional client satisfaction. Reflecting on the project, Ian Okeefe, REWS META Lenovo UK shared, "This project stands out as one of the best-managed and executed initiatives I’ve ever encountered."
This successful partnership demonstrates JLL and Tétris’ ability to deliver forward-thinking workplace solutions through an integrated approach. By connecting global service agreements with local execution capabilities, we transformed Lenovo's workplace vision into reality while maintaining quality, timeline, and budget parameters.
