I would also add that, dependingon where you are geographically, one of the biggest expenses in a lot of offices is price per square metre.  This means if the floor space is not being used to its best advantage, that box of files from projects long dead is costing the firm a lot of money.  As much stuff should be put into archive (which costs less per square metre) as is possible and the retrieval system if something is needed should be revamped to allow for quick retrieval (preferably within 24 hours unless required sooner) and any files / documents that can be destroyed to be done (allowing for mandatory time for keeping same for legal reasons).

Also floor space assessment should be done to ensure that items that can be put into unused corners are done so and that desks are in their optimal position to allow the maximum number of desks to be used.

These are the things, I think, that will save the company most money in noticable terms.  It may require a rethink of what resources are actually needed and if there is sufficient or too much office space for the business.

Just a thought!
