New office, branch and remote site IT setup

New locations that are ready on day one, not held up by IT.

This service plans and delivers the IT side of a new office or branch. Internet, firewall, Wi Fi, machines and printers are lined up so staff can work on the first day instead of waiting around.

✓ Clear plan that lines up with lease dates and fit out work.
✓ Practical decisions on internet, hardware and Wi Fi that fit your size and budget.
✓ Coordination with landlords, fit out firms and key vendors so you are not stuck in the middle.

This works for head office moves, remote offices, satellite sites and relocations inside the same building where everything has to keep running.

Typical situations

• Opening a new branch or regional office on a firm date.
• Moving your main office and needing to keep operations running during the shift.
• Setting up a small remote site that still needs proper Wi Fi and access to systems.

We work in plain language and keep the plan tied to your dates, budget and landlord constraints, not an ideal world.

Build and handover

We oversee the build, test core services and hand over simple notes so your team knows how to get support.
