Site Relocation
Is your company looking to relocate or consolidate offices?
West Coast Technology can help facilitate office move or multi-site consolidation by properly disconnecting your IT computer equipment, transporting, and reconnecting your equipment at the new site. To ensure successful relocation, we will appoint a team consisting of an Account Manager, Technical Engineer(s), and a Customer Service Representative. A site assessment will be conducted of your existing and new locations and all necessary arrangements for the move will be made by West Coast Technology. Once dates have been finalized, our technical engineer(s) will arrive at your site to backup your network, down the network, box equipment, load truck, reinstall equipment, test, and be on-site to provide support when the site goes live.
Relocation Process
- 1. Full Network Inventory - An inventory contains information crucial for asset management, accounting functions and insurance policies. A network diagram and complete inventory will aid a technical engineer in the troubleshooting process and help determine a road map for future upgrades, and migration plans. To perform a physical inventory, an engineer will audit each node on your network. You receive a deliverable document with the following information:
Workstations
Manufacturer and model, serial numbers, CPU speed, RAM, hard drive capacity and available space, peripherals, operating system, user name, department, and IP address.
Servers
Manufacturer and model, serial numbers, configuration parameters, operating system, and protocols
Network Peripherals (Hubs, router, switches, UPS system)
Manufacturer and model serial numbers, configuration tables, routing protocols, and physical layout

- 2. Disassembly West Coast Technology will properly disconnect your IT equipment including servers, workstations, routers and switches, printers, and other peripherals. For file servers, we verify a current backup exists before moving to ensure data security. All equipment is boxed and labeled in preparation of the move.
- 3. Transport - All boxed and labeled equipment will be delivered to the new site. Workstations will be placed in their new locations according to the employee location diagram that you will provide. All servers, switches, hubs and routers will be relocated to the designated equipment site(s).
- 4. Reconnection - Before connecting your systems, we can test the functionality of your cabling and Internet service provider (ISP). Once connectivity has been established, all hubs, routers, and switches will be migrated and configured. File servers will be reinstalled and tested. To complete the network set-up, each workstation or PC will be attached to the network and tested for connectivity.
