The Knowledge Sector
Helping Knowledge Sector organisations get the best from their buildings.
Overview
Working with pre-eminent bodies from the professional, medical and scientific communities has given us a wealth of insight about the Knowledge Sector and the many unique challenges it faces. Knowledge Sector buildings support much more than just office space. They need to work much harder - mixing public space and private workspace, supporting everything from examination rooms and auditoria to libraries, archives and overnight accommodation. And, of course, earning their keep as income generators.
These are some of the services we offer for Knowledge Sector owners and occupiers:
- Strategic property advice
- Building and workplace studies
- Space planning and new ways of working
- Refurbishment and remodelling
- Relocation Projects
- Planning and development
- ESG and green energy strategies
- Asset valuation and leasing advisory

Related Case Studies
RCP set us the challenge of creating a sustainable HQ that was fit for the future and looked after its staff. The College has been based in London for 500 years, but with circa 75% of its membership being based outside of London, they wanted to create a second home in the North of the UK and chose the City of Liverpool and a building now officially known as The Spine.
A complete relocation project using the proceeds from the sale of the College’s lease to fund a new purpose built HQ. We supported RCPath throughout, handling everything from the commercial aspects of the project to the practical and purely technical.
