Our CBRE Project Management business focuses
on partnering with clients to deliver projects from
“concept to completion”, implementing cost efficiency,
industry leading processes, minimising risk and
creating real value. We are pleased to present the Asia
Pacific Fit-Out Cost Guide 2018 providing market-
leading insights helping our clients make informed
decisions.

This year, CBRE continues to build on the in-depth


review and relative analysis of previous editions on
workplace strategy design options, net present life
cycle costing and decentralisation to address the
prevalent drivers for cost reduction. This data is a
collation across project management, commercial
leasing and facilities management to develop indices
for each corporate real estate cost area.

With corporate real estate portfolios dispersed


throughout Asia Pacific and the globe, clients will
benefit from the APAC Index and the introduction
of the Global Index which provides a broader,
holistic view to benchmark project costs with similar GLOBAL BENCHMARKING
specifications and design.

CBRE encourages the use of the Fit-Out Cost Guide


and Global Index as benchmarking indicators and
to guide development of strategies for capital project planning. For specific project budgets please consult the CBRE Project Management Division
Lead in market for budget estimates to assist with capital approval. CBRE can apply market knowledge and client understanding through information
gathering to fulfil to your project management requirements.

We look forward to partnering with you in the future.

APAC FIT-OUT COST INDEX
In 2018, CBRE has compared the true cost of projects, including local market practices which have
cost implications as well as expanding from four basic costs to seven cost categories. CBRE has
also considered the work practice that would be suited to basic, medium and high standard layout
designs. Each standard is defined by the level of design, workstation density and work type such as
knowledge based work, process or business process outsourcing. In addition to specifications, the
layouts demonstrate density and design changes, to allow clients to decide the appropriate work
environment to achieve optimal productivity, and aligns with business strategy.

Whilst Grade A office space remains available


in the market, sustained traditional tenant
demand as well as growing demand from
the start-up sector, coupled with numerous
infrastructure projects has resulted in increased
leasing activity within all commercial markets.
Consequently, we have seen inflationary
pressure on rents which has resulted in many
occupiers postponing major fit-out projects or
reducing their overall CAPEX spend per project.

STEWART MATHEWS
Senior Director, Sydney

The index is generated from empirical project data gathered across multiple industries through the use of CBRE’s Project Management platform. The
index aims to help clients understand the capital cost differences across the region and to provide reference for cost benchmarking.

CBRE has analysed empirical data from completed projects across multiple industries for each market. The fit-out cost table provides the cost of
projects in three high level categories. The figures provided include seven common areas of Consultancy Fees, Builder Works, M&E Works, Fixed
Furniture and Equipment, IT, AV, and Security.

This table only serves as a guide. For budget estimates, please contact CBRE Project Management Division Leads in the specific market. The typical
reinstatement rates for offices have been included, however note that rates may vary due to landlord requirements, reinstatement agreements and
project brief just to name a few variables.

22 ASIA PACIFIC FIT-OUT COST GUIDE


CBRE TOKYO

The technology industry in APAC is generally very busy as the major cities in the region continue
to grow leading to a shortage of good quality installation engineers which in turn is driving up
salary expectations and therefore, installation costs. Equipment and material supply costs are
generally increasing in line with the underlying inflation in any given location with logistics costs
seeing a small increase.

GLOBAL FIT-OUT COST INDEX
The global economy began 2018 in its best shape since the Global Financial Crisis ended in 2009. All the major economic regions are growing at or
above trend, and economic policy – both fiscal and monetary remains expansionary.

Growing confidence has had the effect of continued growth in the office leasing sector, which has seen a rise in demand for different space usage
across all regions, such as the corporate real estate sector experimenting with the inclusion of co-working space as an example, as well as searching
for alternatives to the traditional acquisition, design, construction and operation of office space. The co-working office landscape has yet to be tested
over a full economic/real estate cycle, however, the increase in demand combined with occupiers focus on deploying technology and wellness has
seen the introduction of new corporate strategies, including increased flexibility and speed-to-market for real estate projects.

This burgeoning sector and other market disruptors such as decentralisation create a dynamic construction landscape.

From large corporations to start-ups, benchmarking remains a key tool to assist our clients in their decision-making process. CBRE is pleased to
introduce the inaugural CBRE Global Fit-Out Index which aims to highlight the relativity of key markets around the world. Specifically, this index shows
the effect on corporate real estate capital planning decisions by reporting the comparative difference of office fit-out costs in 23 key markets across
four global regions.

This industry leading benchmark data paired with CBRE’s global presence and market knowledge allows us to partner with our clients to provide our
expertise, and offer the best solutions to achieve our clients’ objectives.

The Global Index is a guide only. For budget estimates on specific projects, please contact the CBRE Project Management Division Lead from the
relevant market who can provide you with relevant and accurate information.

FACILITIES MANAGEMENT COSTS
The operating cost of a corporate office within this document is defined as the Facilities Management (FM) cost. The FM cost shall be classified into
nine key and most common components namely, cleaning, M&E maintenance, pest control, security services, utilities, mailroom, confidential waste,
landscaping and reception. Depending on the facility, the cost may differ on the final service standard adopted by the client.

Labour inflation and currency volatility continue


to drive cost changes across APAC. Skills gaps in
certain markets have also driven salaries in the
service delivery space. CBRE has mitigated these
cost pressures by improving operating efficiencies
through its Asset Performance programme. The
benefits of energy and sustainability strategies have
resulted in utilities costs remaining steady and even

reducing. Enhancing the workplace experience is Senior Managing Director, Asia Pacific

All costs are expensed in the year in which the activities are billed. Most office fit-out projects can be completed within a 12 month period so for the
purpose of this exercise all capital expenses are accounted for in Year 1.

For the purpose of this exercise no “rent free” period has been assumed. Many markets commence lease payment from the point of possession and
this has been adopted for direct comparison.

Construction costs continue to increase in 2018 as the construction market booms due to factors
including earthquake and natural disaster restoration work, the Tokyo Olympics buildup, and
burgeoning Class A office building construction.  The construction industry's labor force demand
continues to exceed supply as average worker age increases, inducing higher labor costs. Japan's
contractors are all working at full capacity, causing overhead costs to rise, as profit margins
continue to reach record levels.

HONG KONG
Decentralisation has been a key HK trend in recent years, with MNCs seeking cost effective options
outside of the CBD. With Corporates relocating 560,000 sq ft of space away from the core office
submarkets in 2017, we have seen a steady increase in the volumes of medium grade office fit
outs and Agile working spaces being adopted more commonly, if not the norm. The development
of new higher-specification buildings in Kowloon East and Hong Kong East has given traditional
Corporate occupiers the greater diversity  for positive building stock options in these locations.
STEVE PALFREY

HK has seen a sharp increase in Co-working centers that is driving demand for space in the Hong

steve.palfrey@cbre.com.hk the year-to-date stock to 1.4 million sqft. CBRE Research expects Hong Kong’s co-working stock to
reach 1.6 million sqft by year end 2018. As the number of start-ups grows and corporate occupiers
increasingly embrace agile working, demand for co-working space is expected to climb, putting
further pressure on the supply chain of HK that will result in an upturn in 2019 delivery costs.

already having risen significantly since construction of the MRT line began.

In terms of real estate trends, Jakarta is no stranger to the co-working space. The number of co-

Weaker business conditions and subdued leasing activity over the first half of this year suggest a

key difference between the current environment and past recoveries is that declining vacancy will
be driven by stock withdrawals as opposed to expansionary demands.
