Capstan Advisors Acquired by Incendium Consulting, Part of The Instant Group, to Scale Workplace and Strategy Practice
Workspace and strategy consultancy Incendium Consulting, part of the global workspace innovation firm The Instant Group, has acquired Capstan Advisors. As the shift to hybrid work environments has challenged businesses cross-functionally, Fortune 1000 companies look to Capastan, Incendium, and Instant for smarter working strategies. This alliance strengthens Incendium’s global reach and accelerates its U.S. growth strategy to help enterprise corporations with organizational and functional strategy.
“Leaders need flexibility and smarter working practices to address ever-changing workplace dynamics, particularly in this pivotal moment of change,” said Mike Perkis, Global Head of Incendium Consulting. “As part of the world’s largest global flexible marketplace, we work with business and corporate real estate leaders to challenge traditional approaches to real estate and evolve workplace models that deliver smart work solutions. Capstan Advisors will ignite Incendium’s U.S. expansion plans for our real estate advisory services practice. Their experience and strength in corporate real estate consulting, procurement and strategy brings depth of capability and additional blue-chip clients to the group.”
Headquartered in London, Incendium is a leading global corporate real estate consultancy business that partners with occupiers to support and enable their business performance through its core service lines of Strategy & Change, Operating Model and Procurement, and Sustainability. As part of The Instant Group, it works together with colleagues from across the business to devise and implement innovative agile workplace strategies and solutions for all clients. Like Capstan, they work with some of the largest firms in pharmaceutical, technology, manufacturing, financial services, and telecom/media services.
“Corporate real estate executives face tremendous challenges today, with the changing nature of work and renewed pressure to reduce costs,” added Paul Garity, one of Capstan’s partners. “Incendium expands both our global reach and the services we can offer to our clients, from our core business of operating model and procurement to Incendium’s other advisory areas such as sustainability, executive recruiting and workplace strategy advisory services.”
