Reduce Downtime and Lower Cost
We assist you during your office relocation
Planning a large-scale relocation of your facility includes the technology relocation of your communications networks and information systems. These systems are essential to your business and must be up and running the next business day after the move. At risk is no less than the ability of the organization to continue to function.
The organization, however, --and especially The IT Organization-- is not staffed to support this major activity in addition to their day-to-day responsibilities, nor do they have the specific skills and tools necessary for this type of technology event. Finally, there are a number of considerations specific to relocation that need to be properly addressed in order to minimize the cost and risk of the move, as well as to maximize the added value that can be achieved during the relocation process.

Relocation Specific Service
Proper Planning and Successful Execution
Indy IT Professionals can provide the skills necessary to address any individual component, or to manage the project from the initial conception through a successfully completed move.
Our Perspective
Planning and Budgeting
The relocation has one very predictable result, there will be a clearly identifiable bubble in the resources and budget needs across the organization. In addition, the timing of relocating your various business moves must be carefully planned to assure that it is transparent to the business (e.g. financial closings, etc.) We have extensive experience in defining the incremental resources and associated budgets needed to successfully relocate facilities of all sizes, in different areas of the country or around the world.- Relocation scheduling and planning
- Project and Resource management
- Equipment tracking
Telecommunications
Proper design of the Telecommunications Infrastructure cannot be over emphasized, and is a key component of our focus during a relocation project. The long-term goal is to have stable communications, independent of disaster-type events. A proper solution should include redundancies, such as multiple telephone company switching locations, multiple paths into the building (should one get inadvertently cut), multiple ways up from the basement to the company's location (should a fire destroy one path), and even multiple carriers. We work with your suppliers and your technical staff to deliver both the temporary connectivity needed during the migration process, as well as the final telecommunications environment.Tiered Relocations
In large relocations, users are seldom relocated as a single event. More typically, the staff is relocated as a series of smaller incremental moves, often by function. This presents many challenges, including those associated with accessing system resources remote to the user's location. We has addressed challenges associated with tying multiple locations, data centers, communications environments together, in a way that makes the location of the systems resource transparent to the user.Trade Management
Major relocations are unique in the world of IT, as they require significant interaction with members of various Trades. At the high end, this includes architects and engineers, providing information and resolving issues. Additionally, building trades, such as Electricians, Carpenters and Teamsters require almost daily management. We bring many years of experience in managing trades and can be your IT representative to assure that the right work is being done, in accordance with the terms of the contracts.Technology Selection And Migration
Our primary focus is to assure maximum return on the IT investment. During relocation projects, we focus on assuring the new technology being installed delivers the greatest bottom line impact to the organization. Indy IT Professionals can help you replace your current technology with newer technology, within budget and on time. We do this by leveraging a number of opportunities, such as consolidation of systems (servers, etc.), upgrades to systems and application software, convergence of networks (Data, Voice and Video), standardization of technology, etc.We will define the actions needed to migrate data from one place to another, to build new systems, and to create connections between the technologies. We will help you establish a central organization that can track the progress, communicate the new processes, train employees, and manage the vendors utilized in the transition.
