The Move Plan

An Office and Industrial (O & I) move represents the last step of a long process that began with the decision to improve your business. This process allows companies to evaluate many of the ways they do business. It also represents a challenge; one that brings great opportunities for success, and plenty of anxiety.

A successful move does not occur by chance. It is the result of thorough planning and attention to all your requirements. Proper execution requires a concise plan, clearly defined goals and assignments of responsibility. The success of the move is directly related to the quality of the planning that preceded it

Relocation Goals

• Your customer experiences no interruption to your product or service.
• Disruption to your business before and after the move is kept to a minimum.
• Computers, furniture and equipment are moved safely.
• Move is completed "on time and within budget."

The purpose of the "move plan" is to keep your business focused in anticipation of a major distraction. This is done by involving your staff in key planning and scheduling decisions, identifying strategies to reduce downtime and educating people about proper move procedures.
