Interiorscapes as Capital Expenditure

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. – August 24, 2021 – Plant Solutions, a Scottsdale-based leader in interior landscape design, installation and maintenance, is providing a new perspective on formal budgeting use in fixed assets and property management, known as capital expenditures (CapEx).

“Plants, greenery, moss walls – they can all be incorporated using capital expenditures – though it may seem unconventional,” said Joe Zazzera, founding principal of Plant Solutions.

“The use of the budgeting tool is a great way to integrate plants and their benefits into an office environment as we all look for ways to make our employees happy, feel safe and healthy.”

Capital expenditure budget is a formal plan that states the amounts and timing of fixed asset purchases by an organization. Capital Expenditures can involve a wide array of expenditures, including upgrades to existing assets, the construction of new facilities, and equipment required for new hires and business expansion or contraction – of which the services of plant solutions will certainly fall into.

The implementation of large-scale interiorscapes and living plants fall into the category of construction projects and facility operators can capture the ability to save money on construction projects before it starts by providing pre-construction services as well as capital expenditure, budgeting strategies. Using these budget planning tools allows asset managers to feature a bigger picture in commercial real estate and take the necessary planning steps to ensure that your projects are completed on time and within budget.

“We want to be part of the solution when it comes to bringing employees back to an office environment,” added Zazzera. “Bringing a new perspective to the traditional office spaces and tools that the asset managers have in their arsenal is part of our company’s appeal.”
