How David and the Strive Team Delivered - 300 Miles Away

At Strive Workplace Solutions, we take pride in going the extra mile or in this case, nearly 300 of them.

David has been working with a well-established local company that operates 22 locations. Over the years, he’s built a reputation for exceptional office space design, attention to detail, and seamless coordination. So, when the company’s facilities manager called with a concern about a remodel project at one of their more remote locations, it wasn’t a surprise they turned to David for help.

The manager wasn’t happy with the results they were seeing from their current provider and knew that David could bring the vision to life the right way. They asked if he’d be interested in taking on the full scope of the project, design, furniture ordering, and installation coordination.

David didn’t hesitate. After a productive meeting, architectural drawings were emailed his way. Leveraging state-of-the-art design software, David created renderings that reflected the space’s potential, accompanied by a detailed quote. A few days later, another meeting confirmed what we hoped to hear: “The job is yours if you want it.”
And of course, David wanted it.

He jumped into action, ordering the requested furnishings and collaborating closely with Thomas, the warehouse manager at Strive’s Meridian, Idaho location. Together, they coordinated the logistics for receiving and delivering the furniture.

Once everything arrived at the Meridian warehouse, it was all hands-on deck. David, Thomas, and Leonard, our trusted Strive delivery driver, loaded up and hit the road for the near 300-mile trip to bring the space to life.

The result? A beautifully designed, fully furnished, and expertly executed office remodel. The client was thrilled and even more exciting they’ve now asked Strive to handle future out-of-town projects.

When Jeff Williams, a Workspace Consultant from our Utah location, was approached to create a new workspace for a customer in another state, he went to work, designing and selecting furniture that would meet their needs.

The customer was transitioning to a more open concept that could accommodate many more employees than the large cubicles they were using.

Jeff provided detailed drawings and designs to help the customer visualize how the new furniture would look in their office.

Open vs. closed office layout: Weighing the pros and cons

5/22/2021

Despite COVID-19, the modern office isn’t going anywhere anytime soon. There may be hybrid arrangements, but most companies will still have a physical presence to some extent. This begs the question: Do certain workplace designs work better than others? Open workplaces — where companies eschew cubicles for more collaborative spaces — have become more common in recent years. However, there are still some companies that prefer a more traditional, closed set-up. (Think individual offices and cubicles.) There are of course some pros and cons to each format. Here’s a look at them:

It's Time to Rethink Officespace and Studyspace

After months of virtual activities, it may finally be time for you to stop trying to run Zoom meetings from your sofa or trying to get your kids to learn quadratic equations while balancing themselves on a kitchen stool. Make the most of an unexpected situation by setting yourself up for success whether it’s in the office, in the classroom, or in the living room with the flexibility of the mobile workspace.

Creative office furnishings

While not everyone has the luxury of having a separate room to use as a dedicated home office or a lot of space in the business office, there are space-saving furniture options available that support your essential work needs for a desk and storage.

You’ve managed up to this point, but if this is going to be a longer-term arrangement, it only makes sense that you think through a much more efficient set-up to help you be more productive. Not to mention that your back can only take so much slouching.
