16. 关于灵活工作场所战略构成部分，秘书长提到 COVID-19 的影响导致联合国内罗毕办事处只有约 10%的工作人员可以测试通过试点项目创建的空间。因此，尚无法充分评价在灵活工作场所战略试点项目中吸取的经验教训的价值。进口物品受全球供应短缺的影响最大，通往内罗毕的全球供应链也出现延误。大流行疫情还导致资源短缺，后续办公区的未来设计和施工工作减少了，以最大限度地减少项目的总体延误，并维持总体费用(同上，第 17-18 段)。该构成部分具体包括：(a) 2020 年 12 月前完成家具试点项目和 X 号区灵活工作区测试，2021 年 2 月用现有家具对 W 号现有办公区的另外一层进行了翻新；(b) 将六个工作“舱”2 用作户外工作和会议空间；今后翻修更多办公区时将安装更多工作舱；(c) 与 V 号办公区有关的试点项目在实施过程中遇到了进度延误情况，主要原因是 COVID-19 对部署的资源和项目供应链的影响(同上，第 37-42 段)。
16. With regard to the flexible workplace strategies component, the Secretary - General mentions the impact of COVID-19, resulting in only approximately 10 per cent of United Nations Office at Nairobi staff being available to test the spaces created through the pilot projects. Therefore, the value of the lessons learned during the flexible workplace strategies pilot projects cannot yet be evaluated in full. Imported items were most affected by global shortages, and the global supply chain to Nairobi was delayed. The pandemic also resulted in a shortage of resources, and future design and construction efforts for the subsequent blocks were reduced in order to minimize overall project delays and to maintain overall costs (ibid., paras. 17 –18). Details of the component include: (a) completion by December 2020 of the furniture pilot project and the testing of flexible work zones in block X, and retrofitting in February 2021 of one additional floor of the existing office block W with existing furniture; (b) use of six work “pods”2 for outdoor work and meeting spaces; additional work pods will be installed when additional office blocks are refurbished in the future; and (c) schedule slippages during implementation of the pilot project related to office block V, mainly from COVID-19 impacts on the resources deployed and on the project’s supply chain (ibid., paras. 37–42).
