AMRCON’s build-out project is well underway
Much of our build-out project is well underway. In fact the planning for our project started months ago, I wanted to mention that in case we make everything look too easy and very fast. Proper project management is a skill in its self. We are proud to have several members of our staff that have worked on countless projects far more detailed and larger than our humble move. The new space is a 2600 square foot operation from our current 1400 square feet.
All of the engineering changes have taken place and the walls are all set in place. Painting the office took place just this week. Some minor electrical changes took place, but a few other changes are required as well later on. A few walls were removed to make room for our Network Operations Center, where we will be able to comfortably double the amount of technical staff over the upcoming years. As you can see here to the left, our reception area received some extra attention. Just today our sign vendor met with us to properly plan our needs and moving of our current neon signs to the new location. Our carpet will be down in the next 10 days, where we can then begin some of our physical move and technical aspects.
Next week we expect to have our security design plans complete, including our locksmith needs. Our video surveillance and alarm needs to follow. Our primary Internet lines will be
installed towards the end of the week which gives our new office life. Shortly thereafter our back up lines and remaining communications aspects will be completed. Our furniture requirements are pending approval this week. Our conference room plans for a combination conference room, training area and webinar stage will be ready to install. We really can’t wait for the use we’ll get out of that.
On the back end our administrative staff are really excited since it seems we will be ahead of schedule and they are the first to move. However they are very busy planning some of our events based around our big move. They include our next training day for our Agent Program and Level 2 Consultants Program. We’re excited that we will have such a perfect room outfitted for them. The next is our grand opening month of discounting to help promote our new walk-in area as well as new Managed Service client discounts. We will follow with an official ribbon cutting and evening grand opening event for our fellow partners, vendors, clients, friends and family.
More updates to come, stay tuned. Dee Rudko, CEO
