project:: Complete office design.

about:: MMG is a Dundee-based firm of chartered accountants and chartered tax advisers, servicing the accounting, taxation, outsourcing and insolvency needs of clients in Dundee, Angus, Perthshire and north Fife.

The firm comprises five partners and 18 staff. In 2005, MMG set up a joint venture company, Verus Financial Planning Limited, offering fee-based financial planning advice to existing clients and the wider public. In 2006, after 80 years in its previous city centre location, the firm moved to completely refurbished, open plan premises, and recently has opened a satellite office in Forfar.

clientsbrief:: To deliver a modern, open plan office with centralised storage, the capacity for a small increase in staff numbers without too much disruption, high quality meeting rooms and an inviting reception area. A feeling of space and light throughout the office is essential.

testimonial:: “In 2004, MMG advanced its plans to re-locate. This would prove to be not only a change of premises, but also a wide-ranging change in our working environment and practices. Our previous 19th century town house accommodation was a maze of small offices over three floors, resulting in ineffective use of space, widespread storage of records and hampered communications.

“In our new offices, asplanned has delivered an efficient, cost-effective solution to our workspace and furniture requirements, ensuring a smooth transition to an open plan, single floor working environment, with centralised record storage. Despite a one-third reduction in floor-space and increased staffing level, this solution to our needs has resulted, remarkably, in far more space.

“asplanned’s attention to detail ensured that everything necessary was done on time, and their help and support with the ‘trauma’ of moving ensured that we were up and running by 4pm on the day of the move.

“Our new office has provided a vastly improved working environment, has enhanced communication within the firm and has assisted in creating an all-round improvement in team spirit. Coming to work is a pleasure.”
