We begin by understanding your business goals, timelines, space requirements, and potential risks to develop a tailored transition plan. Each client is supported by a dedicated Program Manager who works alongside the project team to ensure alignment with strategic objectives and serve as a single point of accountability.

Hilldrup provides strategic support for the development and oversight of program timelines and budgets. Whether building from an existing framework or creating one collaboratively, we align schedules with business priorities, coordinate vendor milestones, and manage dependencies across initiatives, whether part of a single site transition or a coordinated effort across a global real estate portfolio. Our consolidated budget tracking gives stakeholders clear visibility into financial performance, helping ensure workplace programs remain on schedule and within budget throughout their lifecycle.

Whether transitioning to new technologies, adapting to reconfigured spaces, or supporting new ways of working, we develop and execute strategic communication plans that prepare and support employees, teams, and leadership. Our process is designed to promote engagement, reduce disruption, and ensure successful adoption of workplace change.

We work with leadership to establish structured stakeholder communication plans and reporting frameworks that keep all parties aligned with program goals and informed throughout the workplace program lifecycle.

What is workplace program management?

Workplace program management is the strategic oversight of complex facility and workplace initiatives, often spanning multiple projects, teams, and locations. It includes planning, coordination, budgeting, risk management, and stakeholder alignment to keep transitions on track and aligned with business goals.

When is program management the right fit for our organization?

Program management is ideal when you’re managing long-term, large-scale, multi-phase, or multi-site transitions; working with multiple vendors; or need strategic consistency across related workplace projects. Early engagement helps ensure better integration with your business priorities.

What’s the difference between project management and program management?

Project management focuses on individual moves or events. Program management provides centralized leadership across an entire portfolio of real estate initiatives that are driven by corporate strategy, which could include site standardization, asset management, construction management, furniture standardization, and project management, helping align them with broader organizational goals, efficiencies, timelines, and resource planning.

Does Hilldrup provide program oversight across departments and vendors?

Yes. We assist with coordination and management across internal teams, business units, and third-party vendors, providing governance, communication planning, and performance tracking. We serve as a single point of accountability to keep your workplace program aligned, efficient, and on schedule.

Can you support ongoing workplace initiatives, not just relocations?

Absolutely. We manage domestic and global programs that include reconfigurations, furniture and asset planning, renovations, technology upgrades, and workplace experience improvements, not just one-time relocations.
