Elder Research, Inc is a recognized leader in data science, machine learning, and artificial intelligence consulting. Represented by Edward Saa and Timothy Jacobs, Elder Research, extended their government services division office lease. Ethos took advantage of a tenant friendly market to negotiate an early lease renewal. They also conducted significant surveying of c-level executives, managers, and staff to plan and design Elder Research their new office space to address the challenges of a post COVID world.
Jeff Deal, Chief Operating Officer at Elder Research stressed to Saa and Jacobs “collaboration and engagement are difficult with virtual meetings. We needed to reconfigure our office space to foster innovation and collaboration while making our employees feel safe and eager to return to the office. The surveying of staff and planning by Ethos Tenant Company, allowed us to reimagine our physical footprint to facilitate more effective and efficient communication, collaboration, and innovation amongst our staff.”
Edward Saa explains “In response to the changes in people’s work lives brought on by COVID, we engaged a space planner to make changes and to create a more collaborative environment within Elder Research’s footprint. We also took advantage of the landlord’s eagerness to renegotiate Elder Research’s lease. By renegotiating the lease, years prior to its expiration, we were able to negotiate much more favorable terms. Doing nothing would have been a much more expensive choice. Renegotiating their lease early allowed them to save money but also gave them a unique opportunity to reimagine their office space. It was a big win all around. ”
