Forum Technologies has build a large new facility, and of course, they needed furniture... so we provided the complete turn-key solution. The interesting thing about this particular install, is each department had specific needs. Some departments required seclusion and privacy. In this case, we went with high acoustical panels that minimized noise. Other departments need more of a team application. For these cases we put lower panels and left the layout more open which is more conducive to an interactive environment. One particular manager, preferred his work surface and chair to be stool height when all others around him are the standard height. (see picture in slide show). Within another panel system for a different department you will notice a conference area configured into its layout. In addition, each department has a centralized printer. (You will notice the printer table in the some isle ways.) Also, we incorporated a storage cabinet underneath to accommodate any printing supplies needed.
These are typical scenario's we encounter among our customers. Whether it is 100 cubicles like Forum or 1 cubicle, we listen to whatever the needs may be and do our best to make it happen. If we feel certain things are not possible for the designated area in which the furniture will be placed (hazards, size of space, obstructions, etc) , we will offer several potential solutions that may provide the end result the customer needs.

Though we do handle large scale furniture projects, the ordinary office furniture job consists of filling offices with just a simple desk, desk and credenza (with or without hutch), "L" Desk, or "U" Desk. In addition, some customers will add seating and possibly file storage.
NO job is too small. We want to provide solutions for any office needs. We will deliver 1 chair or 100 chairs, no job is too small... or big.
Check out some of the designs from the recent past.
Sterling GMC underwent a renovation to their showroom. They were not only looking for a modern design, but also furniture that met the mandatory specifications GMC has placed on the dealership. The owner is a long standing customer who's relationship was established years ago as an office supply customer. He arranged a meeting with us and the architect. The architect provided the initial CAD drawings and we discussed what their furniture needs were. After that meeting, we took all the information we had and came up with the revised CAD layout, 2D, and 3D options.
At this part of the process, experience is important. Because we have seen product in the field and the environments in which they function, we know the construction and durability of the furniture, we know what the logical solutions are that only come with years of experience. Through this we can make valuable suggestions that can save customers not only money, but also "headache" in the long run.
This project is classified as medium in size and took approximately 6 months from concept to completion. The time of a project can vary on the different variables, but we always aim to accommodate the time frame our customer sets. Depending on the complexity of a project, the project time can range between 2 weeks - 1 year.
The final solution we offered consisted of freestanding panel systems (Allsteel -Cadence), task seating (Hon Ignition), Lounge Seating (GLOBAL- ORION), Breakroom Tables ( HON HOSPITALITY) and Chair (HON STACK), and conference room table (HON PRESIDE) and chairs (HON IGNITION).
Once the architect establishes a timeline for building completion we can order the furniture and receive it in time for the install date. If we need to store it short term, we have facilities to accommodate these circumstances and at zero cost to our customer. In this case, because this is a showroom, we had a small installation window. We arrived on site at 4am and completed the project at 10am.
Before we order the product our furniture experts go on site to measure all area's to verify the dimensions are accurate. Many times the dimensions vary slightly because when the contractor is putting up walls, support poles, doors he may need to make adjustments for structural reasons. Consequently, this will alter the room size by inches and sometimes more. When it comes to furniture installation ever inch counts! We quickly adapt to these changes and apply alterations to our plan to accommodate these modifications. We work quickly so our Order / Installation timeline is not effected.
Overall the project and installation went smoothly and our customer was happy. What more can you ask for? :-)
