Office furniture assembly for a local business: 12 workstations in a weekend

A software company in Markham doubled its headcount and ordered twelve sit-stand desks, twelve chairs, and a wall of storage cabinets. The catch: they couldn't lose a working day to a construction zone. So we did the whole thing over a weekend.
The weekend plan
- Friday 6 pm: delivery staged, floors and elevator protected
- Saturday: all twelve desks assembled, motors tested through full travel, monitor arms mounted
- Sunday morning: chairs, cabinets, whiteboards, and cable management
- Sunday afternoon: packaging out, floors vacuumed, walkthrough photos sent
Why businesses outsource assembly
Twelve desks is roughly thirty hours of assembly for someone doing it occasionally — that's a week of an employee's time spent kneeling on cardboard. A crew that does this constantly finishes in a weekend, the desks are square and torque-checked, and your team walks in Monday to a working office.
The result
Monday 9 am, twelve people sat down at twelve finished workstations. We now handle that office's quarterly maintenance list too — which is how most of our commercial relationships start: one job, done when promised.
