Case Snapshot: Fast Weekend Move for a Growing Team
A Nairobi tech startup needed to relocate 28 staff between Friday evening and Sunday to go live Monday at 9 a.m. The plan prioritized IT racks and developer pods, with reusable crates delivered mid‑week for self‑pack of non‑essentials. On Friday,our crew prepped floors and loaded labeled zones by department. Saturday focused on workstation rebuilds and cable management; Sunday finalized seating and signage. Result: Teams logged in on time, and crate returns were completed by mid‑week. A phased approach minimized downtime and controlled costs.
