Category: Project Spotlights

As an Indoff Partner, I approach every assignment with a simple philosophy: treat every project as if it were the only project on my desk. I handle your office furniture with the exact same care and attention to detail as if it were my own.

 

This past Friday, that hands-on philosophy was put to the test. The goal? Clear out a massive, outdated footprint to open up the room and create a dynamic, collaborative teaming space for the client.

 

The Project: Scaling Down a Major Setup

 

To pave the way for this new collaborative environment, I was tasked with completely disassembling a substantial Teknion Expansion desk unit (7′ wide by 6′ deep), along with a massive double-high 72″ storage credenza.

 

While I frequently partner with the incredible team at Firefighters on the Move for larger projects, this particular job was one I knew I could handle solo through careful planning and strategy.

 

 

The Challenge: Tight Spaces & Stair Carries

 

Because of the sheer size of the units and the building’s constraints, a standard “breakdown and go” wasn’t an option. This required a complete disassembly to navigate a tight stairwell, as the passenger elevator simply wasn’t large enough to handle the 7-foot pieces.

 

To make it work smoothly without disrupting the office, I portioned out each phase of the disassembly step-by-step. This allowed me to systematically create the necessary staging area required to safely move the heavy components down the stairs.

 

 

The Result: Efficiency in Action

 

Thanks to proper planning, the entire project went incredibly smoothly. The client was thrilled to have their space freed up and ready to be transformed into their new team collaboration hub. Best of all, I was able to wrap up the entire disassembly, stair carry, and staging in just two hours.

Looking Ahead to a Busy Week

With Friday’s project successfully in the books, it’s time to pivot to a busy Monday! Today, I’m focused on closing out a few exciting new contract furniture projects and reaching out to my annuity clients to share some fantastic new contract furniture products hitting the market.
