19. 0:36establish a vision and estimate costs
20. 0:39leading you to a completed document that
21. 0:41outlines the components of your
22. 0:46building programming starts by engaging
23. 0:48stakeholders in understanding their
24. 0:50needs you might begin with a user need
25. 0:52survey asking questions like what
26. 0:54activities do you do daily how do you
27. 0:56work how much storage do you need or

34. 1:09or IT staff work their challenges and
35. 1:12potential Solutions these activities
36. 1:15help identify issues with your current
37. 1:16space and clarify your vision for the
38. 1:18new project through this process you'll
39. 1:21begin to shape a program that addresses
40. 1:22your organization's needs and
41. 1:28goals after identif ifying your
42. 1:30challenges and opportunities it's time
43. 1:32to Define your goals in terms of
44. 1:33specific spaces for example you might
45. 1:36decide to balance collaboration areas
46. 1:38with quiet work zones or add amenities
47. 1:40like a break room or Wellness room with
48. 1:42your architect you'll discuss how much
49. 1:44space is needed for each component
50. 1:46should there be more room for
51. 1:47collaboration private work or an even
52. 1:49split you'll also consider space
53. 1:51proximity ensuring frequently
54. 1:53collaborating teams are close together
55. 1:55and separate from quieter areas while
56. 1:57not to the design stage quite yet these
57. 1:59discussions help shape the overall space
58. 2:01requirements and guide the Project's
59. 2:07Direction once your architect
60. 2:09understands your goals and space needs
61. 2:11they can provide a cost per square foot
62. 2:12estimate using historical data and size
63. 2:14recommendations your architect will also
64. 2:16calculate net square footage and growth
65. 2:18square footage which includes walls
66. 2:20circulation areas and mechanical rooms
67. 2:23based on these figures and past projects
68. 2:25they'll provide an estimate if it's too
69. 2:27high adjustments can be made like
70. 2:28removing or scaling back components
71. 2:30while still aiming to meet your
72. 2:32Project's goals through this three-step
73. 2:34programming process you'll get the
74. 2:36opportunity to explore possibilities and
75. 2:38form a cohesive Vision by the end you'll
76. 2:40have a list of quantifiable spaces that
77. 2:42will form the foundation of your project
78. 2:44now that you have a better understanding
79. 2:46of the programming process learn how the
80. 2:48program will develop into a design by
