Is your business growing and it’s causing you to consider moving, upgrading, or expanding your office space? The good news is that business must be good if you are adding employees and growing. The bad news is now you have to worry about moving all of your business “stuff” including office furniture, client files and all that computer hardware! We recommend hiring IT consultants like the professionals on our team here at M&H to help you make the move as smooth as possible, especially in regards to the technology aspect of your move.
An IT consultant can help your company in the following ways:
- Assessment of the New Site – IT professionals can help you understand the positive and negatives aspects of any new site you are considering from the lens of an IT expert. A consultant can help you ask critical questions such as: will there be a need to upgrade electrical or increase outlets or other technical considerations?
- Plan for the Move – In order to avoid unnecessary downtime for your business networks and programs, planning the move so that it can coincide with what time is best for your clients and your business overall is important. Part of the planning should also include evaluating work spaces for ample power, access to Wi-Fi, network access, and the list goes on.
- Assess the Technology – If you are expanding, chances are you may need to invest in more hardware to accommodate your growing staff. A consultant can help by advising your company on the best hardware and software for your growing needs.
- Install and Test – On the day of the big move you may need some technical expertise to be sure that everything is installed and working properly. Our professionals can not only help make sure this is done but can test all the systems to be sure that you are ready to roll right after move-in day.
