Department-wide Employee Move Support

ITS can help when an entire department (or many members) need to move to new office locations.  This is typically executed in coordination with the Facilities Planning Team and Department Coordinators. 

Support Provided:

• Disassembling workstation peripherals and helping organize them before a move
  • Monitors
  • Docking stations
  • Keyboards
  • Mice
  • Computers
  • Other IT peripherals 
• Re-connecting workstation peripherals after an office move and ensuring configurations meet employee's needs.
• Assisting with pick-up of old equipment that needs to be decomissioned/e-recycled.
• Printer support: configuring network jacks when a printer moves and installing printers when an employee moves to a new department. 

ITS cannot move furniture. 

• This includes standing desks that sit on top of desks. Facilities team members can provide guidance and support for moving furniture.
• Please do not move networked printers without consulting ITS; their network jacks require special configuration.
   

Individual Workstation Move:

• Please use this request if a 1-5 people in your department are moving locations within the same office space and you would like help ensuring workstations are reconnected correctly. 
• Use this request if you are and individual changing teams and need help with your workstation peripherals in your old or new location.

Department-wide workstation moves:

• This request is generally intended to be submitted by a member of Facilities when coordinating large-scale moves where whole teams or departments are moving into entirely new offices on campus. 
• This request allows ITS to coordinate with Facilities and the affected departments on infrastructure and individual hardware needs for a large-scale move.

 A Facilities Dept team member or a Department Head or Coordinator can place these requests. ITS will loop in Facilities team member if the request doesn't initiate frrom that team.. 
 

Please be ready to provide:

• What users are moving?
• Where are they moving from and where to?
• What is the target move date?
• Any special notes for your workstation peripherals?

A member of our Client Services team will reach out to you to coordinate times to assess and execute a workstation move. Departmental-wide moves will be a longer engagement coordinated by our Desktop Support Team.
