-- -- -- It's hard to know what to expect with the inherent risk of restructuring an entire department. Will you still be able to meet deadlines? That's why we offer a 1-week turnaround, depending on your needs, and in most cases, continued operability during business hours, as many IT functions can be performed in the evenings. Like any sized studio, consulting for a company with approximately 5-10 design workstations varies in duration and intensity, based on client needs. While a one week plan is recommended for medium-sized companies, different goals may dictate different timelines. Working on an hourly or daily rate may better suit your specific needs. Contact us to discuss how we can serve you. Contact information is on the green bar below. -- -- -- For the entire week of transition, you have unlimited service and support. Week prior to transition: Conference call to cover broad strokes; software and equipment inventory; goals statement. Orders placed for software upgrades and equipment. Contract finalized. Day 1: Meetings with staff, including Studio Manager, Director of Operations, Creative Services, Traffic, IT department. Establishment of goals for the week, including improved routing procedures, staff training, hi-resolution file management, font management, etc. Observation of daily workings (after all, these are individualized solutions, not "one size fits all"). Discussion on server restructuring and formation of master build for studio computers. Day 2: Formation of master build for studio computers. Continued meetings and workflow observation. Discussion on job routing. Evening work begins on studio computers. Day 3: Studio computers finalized. Discussions with Studio staff on transition and digital file management, and training needs.
