1. Develop a Business Moving Plan.

• Investigate the need for relocation. Is there a necessity for your business to move? Why do you need to relocate your company? What are reasons for the relocation? You must consider the pros and cons of business moving and make your final decision on whether to move or not.
• Business moving plan definition. Once you have decided to move your business to a new location, your next step is to plan your effort. A business moving plan is a detailed plan of actions for preparing and managing the moving process. It includes lists of tasks and duties to be assigned to each department and team. The plan should be agreed by the moving team (or committee) and its copies should be shared with key personnel. In a typical business moving plan there are several sections: Schedule, Budget, Moving Team, Moving Service, Communications.
• Make Schedule. It is important to define timeframes for your business moving effort. Without strict deadlines the effort can turn into an endless process. You should make a detailed schedule that sets up durations, start time and finish time for all the tasks you have added in your planned business moving guide.
• Set up Budget. There should be some funds necessary for relocating your company. You need to make estimates for calculating business moving expenses and creating a budget sheet.

• Plan for internal communications. An internal communications plan should include employee roles, tasks and duties related to the relocation. In this plan you can also schedule meetings with employees to share your business moving message and announce on your decision to move.
• Plan for external communications. An external communications plan should include information on your new business location and moving timeframes. It’d be addressed to existing suppliers, vendors, partners, customers and other parties dealing with your business. You can also make a business moving letter and send it to all the parties 1 month before the move.
• The overall communications plan will have the key purpose of notifying both your company’s workforce and external parties of timeframes and new location (address) that you have set up in your business moving plan.

• Select Employees. You need to select employees who have appropriate skills and abilities for carrying out a business moving list of tasks and duties.
