SAN DIEGO—Companies should think about future growth plans and access to the talent pool, consider new work modes and plan for details and technologies that will remain current and allow for flexibility when relocating their headquarters, JLL's VP of project and development services Julie Kilpatrick tells GlobeSt.com. Kilpatrick's team is providing move-management, occupancy-management, change-management and building-occupancy and readiness services for Illumina as the biotech firm begins the process of relocating its team into its expanded corporate headquarters at i3, a three-building, 316,000-square-foot flex office and R&D campus located at 4775-4785 Executive Dr. in the University Towne Centre submarket here. This includes managing office build-out of all workspaces, managing the internal construction of the building's common areas and overseeing the logistics of relocating hundreds of employees.

We spoke with Kilpatrick about the move and what companies and their real estate partners must keep in mind when relocating a corporate headquarters and what to avoid.
