Real-World Example: Accounting Office IT Build-Out
At Full Scope IT Solutions, we design, implement, and manage customized IT infrastructures built specifically for small businesses. This case study highlights how we helped an accounting firm move into a new office with a modern, reliable, and secure technology environment.
Client’s Challenges
Before we were involved, the firm was facing several operational and technology issues:
- Moving into a new office location with no existing IT setup
- Outdated hardware that no longer met performance needs
- Unreliable internet service causing downtime and frustration
- No time for staff to manage or troubleshoot IT problems
- Poor Wi-Fi coverage in key areas of the office
- No security cameras for protection or compliance
Our Solution
We delivered a complete, end-to-end IT setup to ensure a smooth move and a secure, productive work environment.
1. On-Site Planning & Assessment
We met the client at their new location and mapped technology needs to their day-to-day operations.
- Reviewed office layout and workflow requirements
- Counted and planned outlets for computers, phones, payment terminals, Wi-Fi access points, and cameras
- Documented requirements for future growth and additional staff
2. Detailed IT Planning & Design
We converted requirements into a clear, actionable design that everyone could understand.
- Created a tailored list of network and security equipment
- Produced wiring drawings and a complete network diagram
- Outlined a step-by-step implementation plan with minimal disruption
3. Internet Provider Coordination
We acted as the single point of contact with the building and ISP.
- Researched available internet providers for that building
- Advised the client on bandwidth, reliability, and pricing options
- Placed the order and supervised installation to ensure it was done correctly
4. Cabling & Infrastructure Build-Out
We built a clean, professional network foundation to support daily operations.
- Installed CAT6 cabling to every workstation and shared area
- Terminated, labeled, and tested all network drops
- Prepared cabling for future desks and additional equipment
5. Hardware Installation & Configuration
We deployed and configured all critical network and security components.
- Wall-mounted rack and power protection/UPS
- Router and security gateway
- Managed switch and structured network core
- Enterprise-grade Wi-Fi access points for full coverage
- Indoor and outdoor security cameras with cloud management
Results
After the project was completed, the accounting firm gained a stable, secure environment that just works.
