Business Challenge
To support their vision of a modern professional law firm, McGrigor’s realised that they required new offices across the UK which offer exemplar quality service to clients and rewarding careers for staff.
With relocation planned to 3 new offices in London, Manchester and Glasgow, McGrigor’s were looking for a partner to deliver a flexible robust and intelligent network to enhance business performance and effectiveness. The key objectives for the project were:
Insightful Solution
Due to the wide reach of the project, Boston Networks Ltd were chosen by McGrigor’s to work on the cabling projects across all of the 3 new UK locations.
With McGrigor’s ambitious strategy for growth in mind, Boston Networks Ltd understood it to be crucial that the each cabling system offered a scalable solution with capacity for growth.
The Glasgow office alone houses over 250 employees; therefore it was paramount that the new network was robust, secure and able to deliver high speed data to the users within the adaptable working environment.
Benefits
Due to the nature of McGrigor’s business, security and 24/7 business continuity are critical to the smooth running and success of the law firm.
The flexibility of the solution deployed exceeded McGrigor’s expectations and enabled rapid deployment of new technologies and the delivery of voice, data and video to each of the work stations and meeting rooms.
Following the successful deployment of the UK wide project, Boston Networks Ltd continue to work with McGrigor’s. Providing a bespoke maintenance service, Boston Networks Ltd ensure McGrigor’s receive maximum service availability for vital network elements and in the event of any problem, guarantee attendance on site within a specified timeframe.
