Five tips to a successful IT Relocation
Most company executives are new to the moving or relocation process, let alone the IT relocation process. Here are some tips to ease the pain —based on our industry knowledge and practical experience. Moving is a real opportunity to set up your new office exactly as you want it and to take advantage of new technologies. We look at a series of business decisions that need to be made, including project management.
Project Management Choices - "Business better than usual."
Efficient project management is the key to success of your relocation and so is a good team. Assemble your "Tenant Team" consisting of an architect/space planner, general contractor, professional Move Project Manager and IT infrastructure vendors (wiring/telecom, furniture, etc) to coordinate the different phases of the office relocation.
Do you need help managing the move of your IT infrastructure? Would you like one point of contact for all the different aspects of the project? Or advice on who to contact to install your new cabling, to have your computer room up and going from day one of the move, to integrate your phone systems and move the WAN or Internet service?
Netforce will work with your business and external contractors to ensure that every facet of your move is planned and completed in a timely and cost effective manner, ensuring your key systems experience minimum disruption. We have project managed many IT relocations and we know what we are talking about.
