The global quality standard
for coworking and flexible workspace

Independent. Global. Built for the whole flex ecosystem.

FlexGrade creates a common language for workspace quality, connecting operators, brokers and occupiers around one consistent framework.

We assess and verify workspace quality and experience through objective and measurable data, giving the market a clearer way to understand and communicate quality.

Occupier expectations are rising fast.

Corporate occupiers are looking beyond location and aesthetics. They want confidence in the quality, consistency and experience their teams will receive.

Service. Technology. Wellbeing. Safety. Day-to-day operations. All increasingly shape how occupiers evaluate their options.

FlexGrade looks at workspace quality the way occupiers actually experience it, defining quality through that same lens across eight categories.

Eight categories of workspace quality:

  • Building Profile
  • Amenities & Services
  • Guest Experience
  • Space Design & Configuration
  • Network Infrastructure & Security
  • Health, Safety & Wellbeing
  • Compliance & Accreditation
  • Sustainability & Environmental Impact

Locations are reviewed and assessed annually, benchmarked against the FlexGrade quality framework.

Qualifying locations achieve an overall FlexGrade certification, alongside individual certifications across the eight quality categories.

FlexGrade Overall Workplace Quality — Gold certification badge
FlexGrade Space Design Configuration — Silver certification badge
FlexGrade Sustainability & Environmental Impact — Bronze certification badge

FlexGrade only shares aggregated grading results when opted-in. Assessment data remains confidential.

FOR OPERATORS

Turn the quality you've built into commercial value

  • Bring verified quality into sales conversations, RFPs and enterprise proposals.
  • Show the consistency of quality and experience across your portfolio.
  • Give stronger context to the quality and experience that command a premium.

FOR BROKERS & MARKETPLACES

Add another layer of insight to your client advisory

  • Strengthen shortlists, recommendations and post-tour conversations.
  • Give clients visibility into operational and experience factors that are harder to see during a tour.
  • Add richer quality insight to listings and workspace discovery.

FOR OCCUPIERS

Choose workspace with more transparency and confidence

  • FlexGrade aligns with what corporate RFPs already ask for, saving your team time.
  • Go beyond the tour with verified insight into how a space will perform day to day.
  • For global teams, compare options more consistently across operators, locations, cities and unfamiliar markets.

Every established industry benefits from a shared benchmark for quality. Hotels have stars. Flexible workspace has FlexGrade.

A global standard, built for a growing global market.
