What to Consider When Installing School Furniture

By Daniel Clarke, SR. Project Manager-Learning Environment Specialist (SR. PM-LES)

The installation of school furniture can easily become an arduous task for busy School Professionals. While there is little doubt that small scale installations can be successfully coordinated and implemented by most institutions, larger- high volume installations may require a team of personnel to coordinate successfully. Your employees already have assigned responsibilities that usually do not include putting their daily work aside in order to project manage a large installation site. Remember that there is a cost associated with distracting your employees so that they become inefficient in their responsibilities. You will find that you will be better off allowing your personnel to usual duties while outsourcing this additional temporary task to a trusted project management specialist. Since such projects tend to be temporary in nature, the typical price of hiring them can be attractive if you engage the services of a professional company with an existing relationship. Any company worth their salt will be glad for the opportunity to report to just one point of contact and to be left to do what they are best at.

More Benefits to Hiring Installers

Another additional benefit to outsourcing installation services to a professional third party relates to minimizing employee healthcare and related benefit expenses due to the risk of injury to your personnel. By exempting your employees from this labor, you better control overall benefit costs for everyone else. Although you may have to pay a fee to hire professional installers, this fee may pale compared to the potential damaging of the very important goods you are installing. Most professional installation teams will indemnify you while assuming the liability for damage and shortages.  Furthermore, much school furniture will require tedious or complicated assembly that can easily jeopardize a time sensitive schedule. Let the trained professionals take care of this very important task. Remain focused on managing your existing responsibilities while communicating with the hired Installers for the need to have accurate reports and completed timely actions.  Aligning your resources to those of trained professionals will surely result in well implemented projects completed at break neck speeds.
