Finding the right Osaka office should not feel like a second job. This practical checklist walks you through location, layouts, IT, costs, legal, and move-in so you can evaluate buildings quickly and avoid expensive surprises. Use it to compare options side by side, make faster decisions, and keep stakeholders aligned.
Prioritize rail access, commute time, client access, parking, and neighborhood services while balancing central prestige with Bay-area convenience and logistics.
Proximity to metro and highways reduces lateness and delivery friction. Bay-area sites with on-site parking and services can cut daily micro-costs while remaining connected to the city core. For instance, Sakishima (ATC) combines Trade Center-mae Station access, highway ramps within about 5 minutes, and ~1,200 covered parking spaces with restaurants and hotels nearby.
Score each candidate on rail, road, services, and future growth. Create a 10-point scale and rank options.
Central submarkets offer prestige and client proximity. Bay-area submarkets offer scale, parking, and smoother logistics for project teams. Note business-adjacent services like hotels, cafés, and convenience stores to support late hours and visiting teams.
Plan 3 views: today’s headcount, 12-month growth, and a contingency of 10–15%. Start with seated workpoints, then layer meeting, focus booths, storage, and collaboration space.
Mid-size layouts in Osaka Bay often span ~70–370 m²; treat these as modules you can scale up or down across floors.
Estimates for planning only. Final area depends on layout, code, and landlord specs.
Target 1:1 seating only if attendance is stable; otherwise, consider desk sharing and phone booths.
Plan a ratio of 1 huddle room per 12–16 seats plus 1 quiet booth per 8–10 people.
Favor open plans you can reconfigure and verify power/data density at each cluster.
Look for customizable layouts and check ceiling, loading, and riser access before you fall in love with a plan. Many suites are delivered with modern interiors and flexible configurations so you can re-stack without new leases.
Column spacing; natural light; structured cabling routes; HVAC zoning; acoustic treatment.
Bundle daily needs under one roof: security, maintenance, dining, stationery, and parking.
Full-service sites with 24/7 security, professional management, rooftop or outdoor spaces, multiple restaurants/cafés, convenience and stationery stores, and large parking simplify operations and staff life.
On‑site guards, CCTV, controlled access and incident response.

On-site loading bays, distribution support, and cross-dock services cut delivery cycles.
Confirm fiber availability, diverse routes, 24/7 building access, and enough circuits for growth.
Ask for provider list, handoff location, riser diagrams, and after-hours access rules. Check for existing high-speed internet and utility readiness to avoid hidden fit-out costs and delays.
Model total occupancy cost: base rent + CAM + utilities + fit-out + move-in + telecom.

Estimates for planning only. Final costs depend on landlord terms, code, and scope.
