Introduction

Physical space is a critical element of any work process. At the same time, it is a scarce resource that has alternative uses. Consequently, it is important to consider the full economic cost of space, which is the cost to create it plus the alternative benefits sacrificed when it is allocated to one use instead of another.

Space management has evolved into a discipline to systematically plan, organize, and optimize space creation and utilization, particularly for enterprises. This course gives an overview of the generic principles and concepts underlying space management. It is the starting point of more detailed studies for optimizing space utilization in a particular organization.
