Challenge:
create new workstations, using existing materials, without
relocating electronic equipment, and fitting into the
company’s existing floorplan.
Problem: The company had provided
space for future expansion - but - when the time came
for expansion, they found that the engineers had "filled
up" the expansion space with a large rack of electronic
equipment.
This rack contained about 30 electronic boxes, connected
to each other and to the department’s computer
network. It had become a critical part of their work
process.
Solution: careful reconfiguration,
carried out in the evening hours, allowed for workers
to be accommodated and for the engineers to maintain
their work process.
