Category A fit out
A (Cat A) fit-out refers to the basic level of finish provided by a landlord for a commercial space before a tenant moves in.
Typically, a Cat A fit-out includes:
Structural works: This may involve creating an open-plan layout, installing raised floors, and providing basic ceiling and lighting systems.
Mechanical and electrical installations: This includes the installation of heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems, as well as basic electrical services such as power outlets and lighting.
Fire safety measures: This includes fire detection and alarm systems, emergency lighting, and fire extinguishers as required by building regulations.
Basic finishes: This includes painted walls, floor finishes such as carpet or vinyl tiles, and basic ceilings.
Toilets and common areas: Landlords may provide basic toilet facilities and common areas as part of the Cat A fit-out.
Overall, a Cat A fit-out provides a clean, functional, and safe space for tenants, but it typically does not include any specific design elements or customisation to meet the tenant's specific requirements. Tenants may opt for a Category B (Cat B) fit-out to customise the space to their needs, including partitioning, furniture, branding, and additional finishes.
Category B fit out
A Category B (Cat B) fit-out refers to the customisation and enhancement of a commercial space to meet the specific needs and requirements of a tenant. Unlike a Category A (Cat A) fit-out, which provides a basic level of finish by the landlord, a Cat B fit-out is carried out by the tenant or their appointed contractor.
Typically, a Cat B fit-out includes:
Interior Design: Tailored interior design solutions to reflect the tenant's branding, culture, and functional requirements. This may include the selection of colour schemes, materials, finishes, and furnishings.
Partitioning: Installation of partition walls to create individual offices, meeting rooms, breakout areas, or other designated spaces as per the tenant's layout requirements.
Furniture and Fixtures: Procurement and installation of furniture, workstations, storage units, and other fixtures to suit the tenant's operational needs and aesthetic preferences.
IT and AV Infrastructure: Implementation of IT and audio-visual systems, including data cabling, network infrastructure, telecommunication services, and AV equipment to support the tenant's technology requirements.
Mechanical and Electrical Upgrades: Modifications or enhancements to the HVAC systems, lighting fixtures, power outlets, and other electrical and mechanical services to meet the tenant's specific requirements.
Specialty Spaces: Creation of specialised spaces such as kitchens, cafeterias, wellness rooms, or recreational areas tailored to the tenant's preferences and employee needs.
Branding and Signage: Integration of branding elements, signage, and graphics to reinforce the tenant's corporate identity and create a cohesive brand experience throughout the space.
Overall, a Cat B fit-out transforms a generic shell into a fully customised and functional workspace that aligns with the tenant's brand, culture, and operational requirements. It allows tenants to create a tailored environment that enhances productivity, employee satisfaction, and brand perception.
