Operating model and talent
Define functions, role mix, language, shifts, collaboration with global teams, growth, leadership and specialised hiring. Validate talent supply, compensation, attrition and education pipelines by role.
Use realistic commuting and transport assumptions for the exact workforce, including late shifts and inclusive safety needs.
Risk, resilience and security
Assess city and site concentration, utilities, telecom diversity, physical security, emergency response, business continuity and recovery requirements.
Map enterprise standards to building evidence and identify which controls belong to the landlord, facility operator and occupier.
Regulatory and entity context
Confirm entity, activities, data, sector, labour, tax and any SEZ implications with qualified advisors. Million Minds Tech City is publicly described in an IT/ITeS SEZ context, but the exact premises and business suitability require verification.
Do not treat proximity to GIFT City as equivalent to operating inside its regulatory environment.
Workplace and delivery
Run test-fits, technical diligence and employee-experience reviews. Confirm handover, landlord works, fit-out approvals, procurement, testing, commissioning and occupancy sequence.
Large floor plates can aid contiguity but must still work for daylight, circulation, egress, security zoning and growth.
Business case and decision
Model total occupancy and people costs, incentives only where verified, transition, overlap, transport and downside scenarios. Agree a weighted scorecard before tours.
Create a decision record with sources, dates, owners and unresolved conditions so governance continues through lease, fit-out and go-live.
