The challenge
IMA’s existing office, a converted bootmaker’s workshop with separate rooms, no longer suited hybrid working. The layout isolated on-site staff and limited collaboration on office days. Moving to a more open space meant shifting from fixed desktops to a full laptop fleet with desk docks, better WiFi, and hot-desking support, alongside a full IT estate move and new collaboration tools.
What Sprint did
Sprint Integration was involved from the earliest planning stages, helping choose the new office’s internet connectivity and desk layout before the lease was even signed. The entire IT estate, servers, switches, routers, and computers, was moved in a single Friday with just three hours of downtime, ready for Monday. Every user was migrated to new laptops via the Microsoft Cloud and SonicWall VPN, with new docks installed at each desk for full hot-desk flexibility, plus a conference room and digital signage for larger meetings.
