What is a built to suit?
Built to suit is a fully bespoke workspace developed to your exact requirements, from choosing the building and floor plate to designing the layout, constructing it, and fitting it out before handover. Whether a developer customises a shell for you or an operator builds a dedicated space to spec, you define the brief and move into something made for your team, not adapted to it.

Talk to usTypically 3 to 9 months from a locked brief to handover, depending on floor size, infrastructure and approvals.
It varies: the developer may amortise the fit-out into rent, or you fund capex for full ownership. We structure whichever suits your books.
A managed office is built within an operator's building on shorter terms. Built-to-suit is a ground-up, long-term space designed entirely around you.
Yes, that is the main reason teams choose it. Labs, data centres, high-power MEP and secure zones are all on the table.
