When a business begins to expand, it’s likely that it will outgrow its current space and need to relocated. Seems easy enough, right? Just pack a few boxes, get a loading truck, and drive.Business Relocation

Unfortunately, no matter what the business is, relocating an entire office and the technical infrastructure behind it is no small project. There are many things that owners should keep in mind when business relocation is being considered.

Our electrical team at AGK Electric in Cary has found three risk factors can make business relocation a tough endeavor, which are:

  • Packing Electrical Components. Information technology is an important aspect of any business. Without computers, servers, and databases there would be a lot of data to manually keep track of. These systems are critical to the success of modern businesses. If relocation is taking place, then packing the electrical wires and cables that make it all possible must be handled with care. It’s not as easy as one may think, so an expert may be necessary to ensure that everything stays in good shape.
  • Installation in New Space. Business owners should consult with IT and electrical professionals when scoping out a new space for their company. Is the new space’s infrastructure sufficient for the installation of current equipment plus more for projected needs? Is the basic layout of the new space adequate for the business being conducted? Remember to consider these factors.
  • Lapse in Services. Many aspects of a business’s day-to-day operations rely heavily on technology. Therefore, business owners should consider how to maintain a workflow while the business is relocating. Will the website be down or generally slower? Can customers still interact with the business?

Businesses change locations all the time and with the right team behind them, the transition is seamless.
