office reconfigure?

Is it OK to say, "Our office needs a reconfig.", which means we need to tear down some walls here and add some walls there, remove some cubicles or add some more cubicles...etc.?

Any better suggestions?

Thanks,

Note: Reconfigure used as a noun.

Hi Meantolearn,

Not 'a reconfig', but a 'reconfiguration'.

We may perhaps also say «our office needs reconfiguring».
