We
are a team-oriented organization offering outstanding products and
unique solutions for your Library or Media Center. We
provide complete Project Management services for the smallest to the
largest jobs, from the earliest planning stage through project
completion, and for many years to come.
Project Management:
-
Consultations
–
Initial consultations simply consist of meetings for the purpose of
introductions, compatibility assessments and project overviews.
Together we can determine the best way Academic
Furnishings can help, and which of our services you may need.
Consultations are always free, and in most cases, so are the
services that follow. This is possible because we are then able to
clearly define the minimum standard of quality and level of service
you require.
-
Early Planning
–
We are always willing to help formulate budgets for project planning
and fund raising. We can share ideas for encouraging donations from
your community and patrons that have worked for other Libraries.
Experienced evaluation and analysis will help you plan with
confidence and find your project's direction.
-
Space Planning & Management
– We can help maximize the use of your existing and
new spaces while considering
ADA
implications, staffing limitations, traffic patterns, sight lines
and security concerns. Professional CAD drawings enable us to offer
different variations of floor plans for shelving and furnishings to
refine the most functional, practical and efficient use of space.
-
Product Development,
Modification & Custom Design – We offer many outstanding standard products that
have long been recognized as being among the library industry's
finest and most enduring. Knowing our products so well through
years of extensive 'hands-on" experience enables
us to suggest unique modifications, or even completely original
designs to meet individual preferences. Custom designs are CAD
generated, and we will dispel the notion that "custom" and
"expensive" are synonymous.
-
Drawings and Specifications
–
Project-specific CAD
drawings can be produced showing overall floor plans and individual
product details. Complete item-by-item specifications can be
generated to ensure an absolute minimum standard of quality and
workmanship is established and enforceable for your project.
-
Product
Delivery and Installation
– Academic Furnishings accepts all furnishing and
shelving deliveries for your library so any related issues are not
your concern. Flexible scheduling for delivery and installation of
furnishings minimizes interference with the function of your
library. We exclusively use factory trained and authorized
installation professionals, and our organization is fully bonded and
insured.
-
Project
Closeout
– As with all phases of every project, the closeout process is
absolutely critical to our overall success. This is when all
measures are taken to ensure we make our best and longest lasting
impression. We guarantee first class results because we demand them
of ourselves.
-
For
Many Years To Come . . .
We are
planning far into the future to continually manage your small and
large, new and add-on projects. No project is ever really complete.
