ONS began in 2009 the process of moving from its facilities in Rio de Janeiro, Recife and Florianopolis. After an analysis of the structure available in the buildings and current studies considering projections about its future and growth estimates for 2020, a plan was drafted to the organization's needs in which it was taken into account market values.

The locations of the new facilities were chosen: Cidade Nova neighborhood, in Rio de Janeiro, the neighborhood of Santo Amaro, Recife, and Office Park complex, in Florianópolis. The buildings are in an advanced stage of construction according to lease contracts ONS signed with their owners-entrepreneurs.

Lease contracts involve technical, legal and business peculiarities.

Complementing the basic supply, ONS needs for its operation that several other requirements are met, called trousseau items.

In Recife and Florianopolis the building installations, civil and architectural, and electromechanical, electrical, hydraulic and redundant air conditioning infrastructures, fire protection and security and automation systems are already finalized. It remains to complement indoor facilities, the trousseau items charged to ONS: office environments and meeting rooms, auditorium, operations room environment, data center and telecommunication rooms.

In Rio de Janeiro, the building installations and electromechanical infrastructure are 80% completed and the building already has occupancy permit. Additional works have been initiated in charge of ONS.

The buildings were designed by observing the horizontality of office spaces, emphasizing the integration of teams, with the support of infrastructure and finishes seeking a bias of visual identity, targeted to energy efficiency and sustainability, combined with the comfort of users.

Since in all localities facilities include office environments and operating environments, new facilities will have common features and different sizes, depending on the number of employees in each location.

The Occupation Plan emphasizes the continued operation of the final activities of ONS and because of that, the building infrastructure was designed within the discretion of duality and reliability of international standard Uptime, TIER III level, following international practices in operators systems facilities.
