Appendix C - Space Allocation.pdf

This file is Appendix C - Space Allocation from the Washington Department of Enterprise Services (DES) Real Estate Services, prepared for the Employment Security Department's (ESD) office space requirements in West Pierce County. The document outlines the space allocation methodology based on the Office of Financial Management Modified Pre-Design and Space Use Guidelines and establishes baseline user classifications: zero fully remote employees, 10 externally mobile users (10 percent allocation), and 30 resident employees (90 percent allocation) for a total of 40 users. The allocation calculations result in 6,400 square feet of workspace area comprising offices, workstations, and hoteling spaces, supplemented by 1,200 square feet of program-specific spaces including a 300-square-foot client lobby and two 450-square-foot interview rooms each, totaling 7,600 BOMA Rentable Square Feet.

The total approved rental area of 7,600 square feet equates to 190 rentable square feet per user and serves as the basis for ESD's market search for office space in the West Pierce County area. No pricing terms, set-asides, incumbent contractor information, funding amounts, or contract term details are provided in this space allocation appendix, as it functions as a planning document establishing spatial requirements rather than a solicitation or award document.
