Checklist for Planning an IT Relocation
Your business communication equipment (PCs, phones, printers, servers etc.) are central to the running and ongoing success of your business. The earlier you start planning your IT Relocation, the greater chance you have in assuring a seamless and uninterrupted office relocation.
Follow these IT Relocation Checklist Tips to prepare your business for a smooth transition of your communication infrastructure:
Inventory what needs to be moved
A basic review of all your IT equipment will help you find out if anything needs to be replaced or whether you need to upgrade to better/more efficient equipment.
Enlist an IT Relocation Company
An IT Relocation Company will take you through each important step to pack, transport, set-up, and test all your important communication equipment to get you up and running quickly in your new office.
Evaluate IT Requirements in the new office
A tour of the new office checking out the IT infrastructure (network cabling, infrastructure and phone lines) will help you determine the right office space plan and establish the appropriate network cabling BEFORE you move in.
Write an IT Test Plan
When you get to the new office, all equipment will need to be tested so that when staff arrive, business can resume quickly back to work.
Back up Data
Don't leave anything to chance as far as your valuable data is concerned. Run a back-up copy of everything and store it away from the relocation (cloud or off-site data center).
