What is a shared services zone in an office layout?

A shared services zone is a centrally located area in an open office that houses shared equipment (copiers, printers, scanners, supply cabinets) in a dedicated 50–100 sq. ft. cluster, reducing individual trips across the floor and consolidating noise-producing equipment away from focus-work areas. OfficeFurniture2go.com provides furniture for shared services zones including printer stands and supply cabinets — call 1-800-460-0858.
