Why it Pays to Compare the Whole Lincoln Flexible Office Space Market?

The cathedral city of Lincoln is located in the East Midlands and enjoys excellent motorway links with the rest of the UK, and rail links, too with a train service to the capital that takes just two hours. East Midlands international airport is just 40 miles from Lincoln city centre and is a hub for airlines such as Jet2 and Ryanair.

A city popular with students, The University of Lincoln obtained university status in 1992 although its origins date back to 1861. Lincoln’s economy, today, is based in public administration, commerce, farming and tourism and has a fast-growing IT and e-commerce economy. It, therefore, hosts a diverse range of office space occupiers including companies such as e2V, Dynex Semiconductor and Siemens.

The events of 2020 affected businesses that rented office space in Lincoln in many ways. Many companies that leased offices found that, during enforced lockdowns, they were still having to pay rent, service charge, business rates (in many cases), utilities and other commercial property overheads.

The terms of a standard lease meant that office occupiers were liable for these expenses whether these workplaces were occupied or not.

Another development of 2020 was the rediscovering of the benefits of flexible working with many businesses being able to carry on functioning with the majority of their teams working from home.

Whilst flexible working has been utilised for several decades, by various companies in various sectors, it has had varying levels of success. Covid-19 gave businesses no choice but to make it work and, with the help of excellent technologies such as Zoom, Teams, cloud-based storage platforms and highly-improved broadband, many businesses were able to continue functioning with remote workforces.

Many office-based businesses are now looking at how they will adopt these new methods of working moving forward post-pandemic.

There are definite advantages to allowing staff to work from home where possible but it is not always practical and the long-term benefits have not yet been properly analysed.

Whilst it is great to provide employees with flexibility over their working hours, there are concerns over increased screentime, inappropriate home office set-ups which can have implications on posture, and on the effects of decreased social contact time.

There are also some tasks that simply can’t be done from home for a multitude of reasons either related to the tasks themselves or the personal living arrangements of employees.

It is predicted that more and more companies will look to incorporate homeworking into their organisational structures moving forward and will utilise smaller offices for less of the time. Certain businesses may find that they only need to use a physical workspace just once a week for a team meeting or a few times per month as a training office.

It will vary from sector-to-sector and from business-to-business as every company will have its own specific occupancy requirements.

With the uncertainty over exact workplace requirements post-2020, many businesses are seeking flexible office space options in Lincoln that provide them with agility in their commercial real estate strategies.

Flexible workspaces (or flex spaces) include serviced offices, coworking spaces and other forms of offices where the facilities and property management function is managed by an office provider or operator.

These all-inclusive plug-and-play offices are not leased but are available on monthly licences which are shorter in duration than a lease under which office space is rented, and on less onerous terms.

Flexible office spaces also provide the occupier with the ability to upsize or downsize their office space footprint in line with changing business conditions which is particularly useful to companies that will be experimenting with new organisational models post-pandemic.

Flexible offices were often seen as cost-effective office space for start-ups however companies of all sizes from SMEs to blue-chip corporations are now availing of the benefits provided by them.

With the increased demand for flexible office spaces in Lincoln, comes increased supply – from office providers and operators but also from landlords that would historically only provide leased office spaces to rent but are now offering non-leased offices or flexibly-leased workspace solutions.

There are also opportunities available from businesses that may wish to release some of their excess rented office space and can provide short-term workplaces by way of a sub-lease, assignment or another mechanism.

There is now an increased supply of shared workspace options in Lincoln, too.

With this increasing number of flexible space solutions in Lincoln, it can sometimes be difficult to have full sight of the marketplace.
