Creating an Agile, Future-Ready Workspace for a Global Financial Services Leader

Overview
A global financial services firm wanted to expand its presence in Singapore with a new 5,985 sq. ft. workplace designed to introduce employees to more agile, collaborative, and connected ways of working. Vestian was appointed as the Project Management Delivery partner to bring this vision to life. The objective was to create a dynamic environment that supported evolving workstyles, strengthened team interaction, and aligned with the company’s new flexible workspace model.
Challenge
Solution
The project involved managing multiple complexities across design, compliance, and execution. A major challenge was maintaining progress after the building’s cargo lift broke down at a critical phase, impacting material movement and posing a risk to the schedule. Long lead items and procurement delays required stringent sequencing and coordination. Additionally, securing permanent power presented hurdles, necessitating extensive follow-ups with regulatory authorities.
Vestian adopted a structured project management approach, ensuring consistent coordination with all stakeholders. Collaborative workshops helped translate the organisation’s flexible workspace vision into a layout featuring agile zones, team neighbourhoods, and well-planned collaboration and focus areas. The design was further elevated through biophilic elements, regenerative materials, and abundant natural light, supported by efficient energy systems for long-term sustainability. Execution challenges were managed through proactive measures such as securing temporary lift access, tracking long lead items, and fast-tracking permanent power approvals. Real-time reporting, including Matterport updates, ensured complete transparency throughout the project.
Vestian successfully delivered a flexible, sustainable, and people-centric workplace that enhances collaboration, supports productivity, and embodies the organisation’s modern, agile work philosophy.
