Journey Support
Mölnlycke Health Care - New Global HQ
Full-scope Journey Support to a world-class office, top-20 in Leesman+
JonWest led the end-to-end transformation of Mölnlycke Health Care’s new global headquarters, from early vision to successful move-in. The assignment included full program and project management, along with specialist support across all key areas: workplace strategy, layout design, change management, interior concept, and logistics.
Key components:
-
Tenant representation.
-
Overall Tenant Project Lead.
-
Workplace strategy and space program.
-
Layout planning and interior concept support.
-
Change management program.
-
Move coordination.
About the project:
The company relocated 900 employees to a newly built, highly complex facility of 17,500 sqm — including 7,000 sqm of office space and 10,000 sqm of specialized functions such as labs, prototyping workshops, warehouse, and customer-facing spaces.
The goal was to create a flexible, future-ready workplace that reflects Mölnlycke’s global brand, premium products, and strong culture — while enabling hybrid work and supporting creativity, wellbeing, and cross-functional collaboration.
Measured impact:
-
Leesman Index of 78,9, placing the project in 20th place world wide on Leesman+ list out of 9 300 offices.
-
Occupancy insights from the first months show higher office presence than pre-Covid levels.​
-
Space data show very effective ABW KPIs.
Key components:
-
Leesman Index benchmarking across 45 sites.
-
Development of a complete workplace strategy and ABW concept handbook.
-
Implementation and testing of the concept across 11 pilot sites.
Workplace Strategy
RISE – New Workplace Strategy
Defining a Strategy and Handbook for the Future Workplace
In the middle of the pandemic, RISE - Research Institutes of Sweden - launched an initiative to define its future workplace strategy. JonWest was trusted to lead the project.
About the project:
As hybrid work rapidly emerged as the new normal, RISE needed a strategic framework that could support both its complex roles and guide development towards ABW.
About the project:
-
Two existing office floors
-
+200 employees
-
Current office use: low and uneven across the week
-
Ambition: reduce total space by half and shift to more frequent office presence
Conclusion:
-
A 3/2 policy would exceed capacity.
-
The current layout lacks balance, too few focus rooms and oversized open areas.
-
Two paths forward: (1) Redesign the current space with better zoning and shift to 2/3 or (2) Relocate.
