Preparing for an office or IT relocation

Changing office locations may be necessary to the growth of your company. However, physically moving personnel, furniture and equipment to a new office can be very stressful, complicated and overwhelming. That’s why many businesses in the Vancouver, OR area turn to IT Assurance to relieve the stress of their move, entrusting us with the smooth transition of their IT infrastructure.

Benefits of IT relocation services

The greatest benefit of trusting your IT relocation to us is minimizing the downtime of your business’s core functions and capabilities. An IT relocation takes a lot of internal resources and operational capacity to complete a relocation with an expedient timeline. We have the manpower and resources to ensure you a swift move.

A partnership with us for your IT relocation also reduces the logistical and operational challenges of a major IT change. We have extensive experience packaging and reassembling equipment so that your employees can immediately get back to work in the new office space. We follow industry best practices, such as consistent labeling and work order software for each IT component, to manage the logistical complexities throughout the move process.

In our experience, there’s typically a flurry of IT support requests and tickets immediately following relocation. To help minimize this, we can also provide end-user support and training for your internal IT staff to ease the transition for all employees after the move date.

Preparing for your relocation

Before moving forward, we will need some important information that will help us plan your move. We will ask questions such as:

• Will the relocation be fully managed by us, or will this be a joint effort with your internal IT resources?
• Are there certain days or times that work best to plan the move, and time by which the relocation of IT assets must be completed by?
• What types of servers and other IT equipment need to be moved?

If possible, try to plan ahead and prepare for a data center migration in advance of the actual move-in date. Steps such as creating a virtual network deployment buildout and installing network rack components as soon as possible will reduce the complexity of the entire migration.
