LMI Corporate Headquarters Relocation Project
Get a QuoteLogistics Management Institute (LMI) was taking advantage of the quiet holiday season to relocate their corporate headquarters to McLean, Virginia. The 36-hour timer starts now.
The Project
The new LMI facility wasn’t quite done, so the relocation project specifications and schedule needed to account for ongoing construction work. Relocating from a 216,000-square-foot office space to a 165,000-square-foot space would take careful orchestration.
The scope of LMI’s needs quickly began to take shape: relocation of 380 employees, as well as file, storage and copy rooms, audio/visual rooms, Library/Resource center, Security Office and an abundance of classified safes and containers.
The Execution
Interstate’s move management expertise included full move planning and time sequencing from project start to finish. A team of 49 full-time Interstate employees, approved by LMI Security, were part of the office relocation. Within the 36-hour window, 55 truckloads of equipment were relocated to McLean.
