An office move is project management: IT, furniture, files, staff and deadlines all have to work together. The good news: with the right planning, your business stands still for hours, not days. Here's how to proceed.
8 weeks before: settle the basics
- •Set the moving date – ideally Friday afternoon to Sunday
- •Hire a moving company with office-move experience
- •Create a floor plan for the new location: who sits where?
- •Inform staff, customers and suppliers
4 weeks before: technology and files
- •Plan the IT move: servers, network, telephony at the new location
- •Inventory confidential files – transport in lockable containers
- •Define a labeling system: every box gets a room and desk number
- •Register old furniture and retired equipment for disposal
Moving days: scheduled, not chaotic
The move itself runs to plan: workstations are systematically dismantled, labeled, transported and reassembled room- and desk-exact at the new location. IT equipment is packed separately and connected first – so everything runs on Monday.
