Office fit-outs fail on sequence, not aesthetics. Use this checklist before you sign a contractor.
Landlord & building
Collect the fit-out manual, working-hour rules, insurance requirements and approved contractor lists early.
Design & MEP
Freeze headcount, meeting-room count and storage. Confirm HVAC capacity, power density and data pathways before finishes.
Handover
Demand as-built drawings, snag windows, keys/access matrix and warranty contacts in writing.
