Could you provide some examples?
- Disconnecting the excess of overhead lighting
- Removing/rearranging disruptive cubicle walls
- Removing/rearranging disruptive whole/pieces-of desks, filing cabinets
- Getting an extra stick of ram so compiles take 5 minutes instead of 5 hours

For starters...
Then there's the good stuff, removing wheels from disruptive boss' chair, moving cushy chairs from executive offices to more useful locations, etc...
