Prepare the furniture inventory, layout, components and access before an installation. Keep specialist electrical and technical work assigned to the appropriate provider.

Identify the actual furniture

Record manufacturer, model, quantities, dimensions and available components. Confirm the instructions for assembly, adjustment and handling. Use the manufacturer’s current resources, including Steelcase resources, Herman Miller instructions or Haworth resources, as appropriate to the product.

Approve the floor plan

Show desk and panel locations, storage, shared areas and the intended placement of equipment. Have the building and responsible designer confirm access and applicable layout requirements. Installation should follow the approved arrangement and product instructions; a marketing guide cannot approve a building layout.

Coordinate qualified trades and IT

Name the responsible provider for hardwired power, cabling, network equipment and any specialist anchoring or structural work. Confirm whether those services are included separately. BMG’s ordinary furniture installation scope does not establish an electrical contractor credential.

Set up and inspect the workstations

Have the users or responsible workplace lead check adjustment and placement after installation. The OSHA computer workstation eTool offers guidance on workstation arrangement. Record missing parts, adjustments and outstanding items at the handoff.
