TENANT’S PR EFERENCES WHILE CHOOSING “SPACE-AS-ASERVICE”

1. EFFICIENT & IMPRESSIVE DESIGN ELEMENTS

Tenants are preferring office parks with higher efficiency floor plates, Iconic building design with large atrium, increased usage of glass in the façade enabling penetration of natural light and upscale façade treatment.

2. HIGH ON AMENITIES

Taking the leaf from coworking and managed offices, tenants are giving lot of importance to available amenities including fitness center, gaming, varied F&B options (food court, fine dining, branded, kiosks, food trucks), Creche, medical facilities, ambulance, general stores (provisions, laundromat, concierge etc.), Amphitheatre, sports amenities, and clubs. Occupiers are also looking for common auditorium space to conduct large meetings.

3. ENVIRONMENTFRIENDLY DEVELOPMENTS

Corporations have started considering the environment and sustainability in their evaluation. Hence tenants are stressing the selection of Green Certified Buildings at least LEED GOLD but Platinum rated is preferred. Integration of sustainability practices including green lease, green energy, conservation of energy and water, and use of environmentally friendly products and building materials.

4. USAGE OF TECHNOLOGY

Tenants are seeking building automation through the BMS system with the ability to monitor equipment health and usage via developer BMS. Tenants are asking for efficient apps for communication, booking of amenities, and other functions.

Post COVID-19, tenants are evaluating parks on availability of touchless features in high-traffic zones, namely, toilets, cafeterias, entry/exit points, and others. Tenants are also insisting on installing CO2 sensors for office floors for gathering information on the air quality of the space.

5. HIGH SECURITY INFRASTRUCTU RE

Tenants are giving importance to security and increased usage of technology in this function is also in trend and preferred. CCTV security coverage is expected in the office campus regions and spaces in buildings including common areas, utility areas and critical rooms, parking areas and others. The centralized monitoring, turnstiles / flap barriers are part of the developer’s scope integrated with building access control system.

6. PROFESSIONAL & TRANSPARENCY IN SERVICES

Tenants are encouraging usage of transparent and incentive- based CAM model. This model has defined KPI parameters established in terms of service level requirements. Based on the performance of the provider, the CAM charges include a subsidy / additional incentive.
