Business Transitions & Move Management goes far beyond simple move management.
We add significant value through comprehensive planning, multi-site program management, and logistics solutions to mitigate risk and minimize business disruption. When there’s a clear need for structure and leadership, we are the right partner.
In addition, our services result in an average 25% cost reduction against national average move cost benchmarks.
Why Work with Cushman & Wakefield
Cut Through Chaos: With streamlined communications and workstream alignment, move projects deliver on time and under budget, regardless of complexities and the number of impacted sites. We offer national reach with local execution.
Roadmap Approach: From project inception, our process aligns all workstreams to drive a path forward to the finish line. Our comprehensive roadmap plan tailors the delivery to your organization’s needs and clearly assigned owners, durations, and reporting processes.
Drive Value: We maximize value via carefully planned logistics and nationally negotiated vendor solutions.
Program Management: We don’t stop at logistics coordination, but operate at the program level—owning strategy, schedule, vendor oversight, stakeholder alignment, and execution.
Total Integration: Our ability to integrate across disciplines (IT, furniture, real estate, construction, and operations) is a major differentiator. We don’t just move boxes—we protect business continuity.
