The challenge
One of McKinney's largest employers — a Fortune 500 insurance company — was relocating its corporate headquarters into a brand-new six-story building. It's a 3,000-person company, much of it now hybrid, so the physical move came down to 600+ workstations, plus hundreds of monitors and IT that couldn't be offline when Monday came. A weekday move was out of the question — every hour of downtime meant lost productivity across the business.
The plan
It started with a walkthrough of both buildings and a floor-by-floor plan. We mapped every department to its new footprint, assigned a labeling scheme so each desk, monitor, and chair had a destination before a single item moved, and built a schedule around the one window that wouldn't cost the business a workday: the weekend.
A single Zip Zap project manager owned the whole thing end to end — one point of contact for the client's facilities team, the building management at both ends, and our crews.
Execution
We ran the move after-hours and across the weekend. Workstations were shrink-wrapped and padded, electronics handled with care, and every piece labeled and mapped to its exact new seat. Certificates of Insurance were issued ahead of time so building management at both properties signed off without slowing anything down.
Instead of a chaotic "everything at once," the move went floor by floor to a plan — loaded, transported, and staged in the new building exactly where the map said it belonged.
The outcome
Monday morning, people walked into the new building, found their desk already in place, and got back to work. No scramble, no lost day, no "where's my monitor." For a headquarters relocation of this size, that's the difference between a smooth move and a very expensive Monday.
