BOMA Area Analysis
OCCUPANCY MANAGEMENT & COMMERCIAL LEASING
This BOMA Area Analysis project was commissioned to develop a comprehensive leasing package for the University of Guelph Research and Innovation Centre — a 59,000 SF institutional research facility requiring detailed occupied and rentable area calculations, BOMA-compliant floor plans, and a complete global summary of areas to support occupancy management and leasing administration.
Creative Angle's Engineering Technologists completed a full LiDAR scan of the property, capturing precise measurements across all areas of the building. BOMA area calculations were produced in accordance with the BOMA International measurement standards, delivering area summaries and allocations, occupied and rentable area calculations, a BOMA Global Summary of Areas, and fully annotated BOMA area floor plans — alongside a full iGUIDE 3D virtual walkthrough of the facility.
BOMA measurement standards are the accepted benchmark for commercial real estate area calculations in Canada and internationally — used by property managers, landlords, tenants, and real estate professionals to establish fair and transparent rentable area for leasing purposes. Accurate BOMA calculations are particularly important for large institutional and multi-tenant commercial buildings in Toronto and the GTA where even small measurement discrepancies can have significant financial implications for leasing agreements and common area cost allocations.
This package delivers a complete BOMA-compliant area measurement and documentation set for commercial leasing and occupancy management purposes.
PACKAGE INCLUDES:
Area Summaries & Allocations
Occupied & Rentable Area Calculations
BOMA Global Summary of Areas
BOMA Area Floor Plans
WHAT IS BOMA &
WHY DOES IT MATTER?
BOMA stands for the Building Owners and Managers Association. BOMA International publishes the globally recognised standards for measuring and calculating rentable floor area in commercial buildings — known as the BOMA Standards or BOMA Method of Measurement.
In Canada, BOMA measurements are the accepted standard for commercial leasing — used by landlords, tenants, property managers, and real estate brokers to establish the rentable area of office, retail, industrial, and institutional spaces. BOMA calculations determine how much a tenant pays in rent and common area maintenance charges, making accurate measurement critical to fair and transparent leasing agreements.
A BOMA area analysis from Creative Angle provides property owners and managers with a verified, professionally documented set of area calculations that can be used directly in lease agreements, tenant billing, property appraisals, and portfolio reporting.
WHO IS THIS PACKAGE FOR?
The BOMA Area Analysis is the right choice for commercial property owners, landlords, property managers, and real estate professionals who need verified, BOMA-compliant area calculations for leasing, occupancy management, or portfolio reporting purposes. It is particularly well suited to:
-
Multi-tenant office, retail, and institutional buildings requiring accurate rentable area documentation
-
Property managers preparing or reviewing commercial lease agreements
-
Landlords and tenants disputing or verifying existing area calculations
-
Real estate brokers and appraisers requiring certified area measurements
-
Institutional and university facilities managing complex multi-occupancy buildings
-
New commercial developments requiring BOMA-compliant area documentation prior to leasing
