The challenge
For over three decades, The Epitec Group has been attracting the best and brightest technological talent in the world to fill the IT staffing needs of the nation’s greatest companies. Epitec’s lease on its headquarters in Southfield, Michigan, was about to expire, and the company wanted to review its options.
The solution
The company contracted Plante Moran Realpoint (PMR), formerly Plante Moran Cresa, to assist in its decision-making process, to offer information that will help Epitec choose between acquiring new space or retaining its existing space with the most advantageous terms possible. PMR provided strategic real estate planning, market analysis, financial modeling, and lease transaction management services.
The benefit
After supplying Epitec with a range of options, Epitec chose the most cost-effective choice. PMR negotiated a new lease on the existing headquarters property that included the desired flexibility for additional space as needed for future growth at substantial savings over an eight-year period.
