OUR SERVICES

Make your workplace work for you

We design and deliver workplace strategies and solutions that are healthier and safer as well as more productive, sustainable and – because of our curated services – more enjoyable for your employees and visitors. Our workplace products ensure you optimize space and maximize the value of your investments – in the short and long term.  

Portfolio strategy

We’ll help you optimize your building portfolio, with strategies for how to restack, reduce, relocate or reinvent use of your assets – reducing rent, lowering rates and ensuring utility savings. 

Curated experience & workplace strategy

Across all offices and sites, we’ll help you create a strong, smooth and memorable workplace experience, bringing your own distinct culture to life. We architect memorable service moments which bring your business strategy, workplace design and employee needs together – ensuring people and places are truly connected.

Workplace design

From ongoing improvements to COVID-19 back-to-work programs, we design smooth, safe and efficient workplaces that meet your organizational needs and give people great opportunities to engage, perform and develop – improving recruitment and retention and increasing employee and visitor satisfaction.  

Service design

Before designing our services we identify workplace journeys and service touchpoints to understand how we best can support your people and create the right workplace experience – adapted to your specific industry and organizational needs.  

Relocation strategy

We offer specialized lease advice to help you create a tailored relocation strategy, connecting your business and brand requirements with people, space and productivity. 

Capital projects

With insights into infrastructure data and lifecycle management combined with our comprehensive understanding of the workplace, we can manage all your building investments – from redesigning places and managing moves to introducing new technology and innovative service solutions.   

The Mental Rebuild

By establishing new habits around how people use space, we’ll help you optimize your places – reducing the maintenance costs and carbon footprint. We use our expertise in workplace design, communication and psychology of nudging to uncover all unused resources, and without any rebuilding, transform your spaces for better use. 

Co-working

Our co-working solution – all serviced by ISS people – brings new levels of flexibility to your business. In partnership with you, we will convert free space within the office to a co-working, incubator environment, ensuring your place supports innovative co-creation while achieving substantial savings on rent and maintenance costs for the vacant areas.
