2Relocating your office is a major task that
requires advance planning and tactical
management. Whether you are large organization or
a small entity, your office relocation process
needs a strategy that will help you minimize the
disturbance to your crucial business operations.
It helps to have professional movers on board to
ensure your relocation goes as smoothly as
possible. Here are some key steps that will help
you to plan and organize the relocation process
with your office movers
3Embrace your project plan
- It is essential to plan your relocation early in
order to avoid the hassle that can disrupt your
important business operations. A small office may
need a few weeks or a month to relocate with the
help of a man and van company. However, for a
large organization, it can take more than a
couple of months or more to complete the
relocation process - depending on how much stuff
you have. If you can outline the necessary tasks,
set deadlines, assign the work and identify who
will be responsible for what early on, half your
battle is over. It also helps to gather logistics
and information about the new place, visit before
moving day and map out your moving strategy,
including making a list of potential challenges
you may face with your new space.
4Assemble your office relocation team
- Just as you would with any other task, successful
relocation needs the collaborative input and
efforts of your management, employees and even
support staff to make the relocation process
easier. You want to make sure you select the
right relocation team of your organization and
who will be actively participating - from the
team leader to office movers.
5Create a budget
- Plan your budget in accordance with the size of
your office, standard rates for your professional
movers, amount of stuff you have and the
resources at your disposal. It is necessary to
identify the costs of relocating process if you
have a specific budget amount.
6Execute the shifting process
- After you decide upon a project plan and the
stipulated budget and hire professional movers
who specialize in business relocation, it's time
to make your big move. For any necessary
installations or service transfers contact local
service providers at your destination beforehand.
- Along with planning, delegating and
executing the moving process, you will also want
to notify - your clients and customers about your move.
Once you have settled into your new location, use
