Chargeable Area

15 years in corporate real estate and facilities management, covering branch networks across Asia and Europe from bases in Hong Kong and London. Day-to-day responsibility for space allocation, occupancy cost and the internal recharge that follows from them - work that runs across several measurement regimes at once: net internal area in the UK and Europe, gross and lettable area in Hong Kong, net lettable in Singapore. Reconciling those into one defensible set of numbers is most of the job, and it is why the models here are built to switch measurement basis rather than assume one. The documents here come from that work, using published measurement standards - IPMS, BOMA and BCO - rather than any employer's data or systems.
