Space Planning - Charter
Business Case
Scope
By developing a co-located Shared Services organization, UC Berkeley will benefit
from synergy across administrative functional areas, an increased grouped
knowledge base, and economies of scale. Additionally, reducing space on central
campus for administrative services will free up campus space for other campus
priorities.
In Scope:
Develop Shared Services space requirements including: # of spaces, required
space types, technology needs, specialty and common use areas. Analyze and
cost space options and make recommendation for best fit. Analyze current state
space usage i.e. walk-up help desks, distribution of staff. Consider and cost no
more than 4 options. Identify interim options if necessary and track phasing of
future available space due to Shared Service transition.
Out of Scope:
Deciding how many center there will be, making organizational design decisions
Dependencies:
• Number of locations (Org WG)
• Staffing projections over time, Org structure (workforce planning WG, funding
model WG)
• Tech specifications (client contact design WG; tech tools WG)
Problem Statement
Workgroup Members
The Shared Service Organization will most likely be co-located, therefore a
physical location(s) needs to be identified. At this time administrative services are
delivered through fragmented and decentralized structures located in many
places across campus. Currently there is no space identified and available .

Goal Statement
Methodology & Timeline
Goal:
Make a recommendation of a physical space that best fits the needs and design
requirements of the Shared Services organization, while remaining cost effective
and aligning with long-term campus space planning goals.
DMADV (Define, Measure, Analyze, Design, Verify)
Timeline:
• Define: 10/6/11 – 11/23/11
• Measure: 11/23/11 – 02/15/12
• Analyze: 02/15/12 – 03/01/12
• Design: 03/01/12 – 03/15/12
• Verify(Implement): 04/1/12 – 7/1/12
Sub-goal: Define special Shared Services space design requirements in alignment
with campus design guidelines.
