How Many Offices Does ArchiFACT Need?

A recent job for ArchiFACT was an arbitration concerning a site in the Middle East with clients based on two different continents. No site visit was necessary for ArchiFACT, our report was based on evidence provided electronically and emails with the client.

The Arbitration process itself involved Arbitrators in three time zones, however the hearing involved very little travel for us. ArchiFACT’s expert travelled 65 miles by train and taxi from our Head Office in St Leonards-on-Sea to the lawyers offices in the City of London.

The hearing was conducted entirely via multiple video links and, if placed end to end, the total length of cables running between the pieces of tech in each of the individual offices of the arbitrators,  clients, experts and lawyers could well have been greater than the distance travelled by our expert.

The question arising was, does ArchiFACT, or indeed any consultancy, need separate offices in the North of England and another in the South, when almost everything except for site visits could be done sitting at a desk?

Drawing the obvious conclusion, ArchiFACT’s Yorkshire office is now closed. From 30 May 2024 all business will be conducted from our Sussex Office in St Leonards-on-Sea.

Picture of the Week takes a break

Picture of the Week has taken a break for a few weeks. It will return in May.

In the meantime here is one to be getting on with - this photo shows the Victorian building which house ArchiFACT's office - just last month. The road in front was never gritted and remained like a skating rink for over a week.

Roll on summer!
