Planning to lease office space and want to ensure it meets your needs? Preparing to renegotiate your lease? Technical due diligence on an office building carried out by Newmark Polska experts will help you make an informed decision and provide strong arguments during negotiations.
Technical due diligence – scope
Technical due diligence surveys on buildings are detailed assessments of their condition from a tenant’s perspective, focusing on the comfort and safety of office use. They cover both tenant-occupied space and the common areas to ensure that the building meets functional and technical requirements in line with its intended use. Surveys include audits of ventilation and security systems, standard fit-outs and inspections of building alterations to verify compliance with applicable operational and legal requirements.
Technical due diligence – system audits and alteration inspections
An audit of a ventilation system examines parameters such as equipment noise, relative air humidity and temperature – all critical to workplace comfort. The inspection of safety systems during the technical due diligence survey includes checking that fire-fighting installations, emergency route equipment and emergency power systems are in good working condition, which requires cooperation with the building owner and staff. Additional checks cover key building installations, including lifts and revolving doors, and assess how alterations and upgrades impact office usability.
Importance of technical due diligence for tenants – technical due diligence with Newmark Polska
A technical due diligence survey not only evaluates the physical condition of a building and its compliance with requirements but also identifies potential risks and areas for improvement. It gives tenants confidence that the leased space is safe, comfortable and functional, while enhancing employee efficiency and minimising the risk of unexpected costs resulting from malfunctions or defects. Technical due diligence is therefore essential for making informed decisions when leasing or investing in an office building.
