How To Decide If Relocation Is Right For Your Business

How To Decide If Relocation Is Right For Your Business

The decision to relocate a business should not be taken lightly. Apart from the upheaval and the risk that the decision to move is wrong, there is a multitude of arrangements to be made to facilitate the move. These include hiring professional removalists and even interstate removalists to help you plan and carry out the move when it happens.

However, before you get anywhere close to that point, the decision to relocate your business needs considered thought. Whilst a move might seem to be the right thing to do, it should not be done on a whim, or simply because the offices you are considering “look nicer”. Being in fantastic looking business premises is desirable, but that should not be the driving force behind your decision.

The decision comes in three stages. The first is to identify what positive reasons you have for relocating. Next should be considering what impact the move will have on a range of matters.

Commercial disputes can be time consuming, costly and damaging to the long term reputation and success of your business.

Alternative dispute resolution, or ADR, is a method of dealing with commercial issues without going through the courts. They usually involve the use of a third party (such as a decent lawyer) who will act as the go between for you and the other party involved in the dispute. If problems can be worked out using ADR, you will probably save yourself money, time and a lot of bad press.

What Types Of ADR Are There?

There are a number of different types of alternative dispute resolution that can be used according to your circumstances. In some cases, more than one type of ADR can be used. The most common methods in Australia include:

Mediation – Commercial dispute mediation involves the used of an impartial third party mediator who can work with both parties without vested interests. A mediator’s job is not to make agreements or discuss terms with both parties, but to act as a go between and to facilitate discussion.
