Offset faces in one go

So I think Inset can do it currently, try setting the Thickness = 0 so it won't make a border and then check "use separate height" and put in your offset distance as the Height value.

If you want to keep the cut away portion as a separate object you can do that by checking "Grooved" and set groove width to 0.
