GovHub

Plan B Solutions introduces

GovHub

GovHub is a groundbreaking property solution for public sector organisations.

Post-pandemic, many public sector organisations are paying for more space than they need. GovHub brings together those agencies with too much space (who cannot, or cannot yet, release that space) with those agencies who need more space or who can exercise lease breaks or lease break options.

Those who have surplus space offer it out on a flexible, pay-as-you-go basis and those who can release space have a network of low cost alternative location options where they pay only for what they use.

“GovHub is what One Public Estate was always supposed to be!”

Steve Cooper Head of Corporate Landlord Services, Dudley Metropolitan Borough Council

The Benefits of GovHub

  • Smart Property Solutions: Access prime, flexible workspace. No commitment. No delay.
  • Cost Efficiency: Reduce estate costs and generate revenue from surplus space.
  • Regional Optimisation: Significantly decrease the overall public sector estate (and costs) across the region.
  • Enhanced Productivity: Ready-to-go working locations – on your doorstep.

No commitment, no leases, no lawyers, no partitions. Just shared space.

Govhub cost comparison

The big difference?

Traditionally such sharing is done on a one-to-one organisational basis. The GovHub solution is a flexible one-to-many solution.

The result?

A reduced public sector estate overall, much reduced costs for the public purse, a better-performing office environment for all, and a public sector working without walls in a true One Public Estate approach.
