NESC architectural and facilities management consultants can help nonprofits to reduce occupancy costs, boost efficiency, allocate costs, become ADA-compliant, or supervise major renovations. These experienced consultants survey how office and other facilities are being used and may recommend alternative allocations and uses.
- For a New Jersey nonprofit serving the elderly, the NESC team planned for and facilitated a relocation to new headquarters.
- For a Connecticut organization contemplating whether it should relocate, NESC created site-selection criteria and a set of criteria for analyzing potential new locations.
- For a Staten Island group of historic homes, NESC's architectural consultant analyzed each building and developed detailed drawings to ensure ADA compliance at each location.
- For a Connecticut public school system, NESC analyzed current and projected enrollment and then recommended a reconfiguration of space to allow for a growth "bubble" without building a large addition.
- For a retirement residence based in New York City, NESC planned the restructuring of the main-floor area to achieve more effective use of the space.
- For the Long Island affiliate of a national social services organization, NESC assisted in a review of its real estate facilities to ensure they were being put to their optimum use consistent with present and future program needs, and that monies spent on the facilities represented an efficient expenditure of resources.
- NESC assisted the board of a Connecticut municipality in evaluating facilities management concepts. The project involved a comparative study of how towns of similar size manage major construction projects.
