mobile shelving « Office Storage Solutions

Office Storage Solutions (OSS) recently completed a large mobile shelving project for one of the world’s largest corporations, at their new, purpose-built offices in Kuwait. It involved installing three Mobile Storage systems, which together provide more than 1,200 linear metres of state-of-the-art mobile storage.

OSS Director Phil Jarvis commented: “We’re extremely proud to have won the contract against strong competition from local and other overseas suppliers. Competitive-pricing and our ability to provide a turnkey solution were paramount.”

“However, I believe that our proven track record of success for corporates here in the UK and in other EC countries was the deciding factor. When a client does business with OSS, they can be certain that their installation will be completed in an ultra-professional manner, on time and to the agreed budget.”

Delivering the goods

The components for the Kuwait installation were packed into containers in the UK and sent to Kuwait City by sea. OSS managed the shipment from start to finish, including the complex documentation and import declarations on arrival at the port.

Installing the solution

A team of experienced OSS fitters was flown out to install the systems. They completed the task within the agreed two-week window, which was quite an achievement when you consider the installation provides over 1,200 linear metres of storage.

Comprehensive after sales support

Unlike many of their competitors in this niche yet extremely competitive office storage market sector, OSS can provide a total solution. “Even though our high quality systems don’t require much in the way of maintenance, wear and tear is an inescapable fact of life,” continues Phil.

“In the UK and throughout the rest of Europe, our own service teams maintain client systems. In Kuwait, that was impractical. So we trained the client’s on-site team and saw to it that they had all the spares they would need for the foreseeable future.”

At Office Storage Solutions (OSS), we appreciate that every office environment is different and that companies and organisations have their own preferred way of doing things. That’s why when we design mobile shelving and mobile storage systems we ‘start from scratch’ each time a new enquiry for a mobile storage solution comes in. It’s the best way. It means that every new mobile storage system design and install is unique. After all, people as individuals are unique and have their own way of working, so shouldn’t their favoured storage design reflect that?

What kind of mobile storage solution would best suit you?
By listening to you and your team (the people who will actually be using the system!), and understanding what’s easiest and best for you, we can gain a clear understanding of your exact storage requirements, before we move on to the design stage.

We find this is an approach that pays dividends, every time. So many other office storage companies design, produce and install mobile storage systems they want their clients to have, rather than creating the exact mobile storage solution their client desires. As a result, the storage ‘solution’ proves to be anything but. After installation, users begin to notice problems with their system, and how they often have to compromise on the way they want to store, file and retrieve documents, boxes, disks and other media.

At OSS, clients having to compromise in some way when using one of our systems at their business premises means we have failed. (And we haven’t failed yet!)

Do you need mobile shelving and/or mobile storage at your current premises? Or maybe a bespoke system to be in keeping with an office suite you are soon relocating to is what you are looking for?

Tell us what you don’t like about your current mobile shelving or mobile storage system, and what design features would make your life at work so much easier (and, in fact, more enjoyable) each time you go to retrieve or return a file, and we’ll put ourselves in your shoes as we set about ‘making your mobile shelving and/or mobile storage solution happen’.

After all, it’s your mobile storage system we’ll be designing and installing, not ours!

Following on from the successful installation of the mobile storage system at the new Sony Television facility in Turkmenistan, OSS were again contracted in to design, build, and oversee the installation of an even bigger roller rack storage system at the newly built and very impressive TV tower in Ashgabat.

The mobile storage system, which was built by OSS in the UK before being transported to site for assembly and installation, was specifically designed for the housing of tapes and discs used at the television centre. The system provides for an impressive 7,500 metres of storage space in over 1,100 storage bays, providing the staff with a space-saving yet easily accessible system to manage their media.

The new TV tower under construction in Ashgabat, Turkmenistan,
the mobile storage system was installed on the 3rd floor.
 

The entire project took just 5 weeks to complete, during which time OSS flew engineers to the site to work with local engineers to carry out the successful installation on time and on budget.

Mobile Shelving and Roller Racking from Office Storage Solutions

Releasing floor space in your office could facilitate company growth. The extra room could be utilised by installing more desks or workstations, allowing for expansion of your team.

The Office Storage Solutions Team Fulfils Sony Contract in Turkmenistan

When Sony Professional Solutions – Europe, in conjunction with Kulu Productions Ltd, developed a new TV Centre in Turkmenistan, the problem was not only sourcing a company who could provide a storage solution for over 35,000 discs and tapes of various sizes, but also finding one who would be prepared to install the storage at a site 3000 miles from the UK.

About Turkmenistan (and How Office Storage Solutions Heeded Their Call!)
A former Soviet Republic in Central Asia, Turkmenistan has a population of just over five million. The country has strived hard in recent years to break out of Russia’s hold on its exports. And with its economy growing stronger each year, the new and modern TV Centre is seen almost as a flagship – a testament to their ambition, to their determination to continue to grow and prosper as a developing nation…

Required: The Best Storage Solution, Installed by the Best Engineers
With the state-of-the-art TV Centre up-and-running, what was needed next was tailored mobile storage for disks and tapes, built to world-class standards.

Office Storage Solutions (OSS) were contacted and following meetings at Sony HQ in Basingstoke, a mobile storage system was designed and developed to accommodate three sizes of discs and tapes, which not only met the client’s requirements, but also provided additional storage capacity for future growth.

OSS Engineers Fly In and Get the Job Done Without a Hitch
The system was manufactured within three weeks, checked and double-checked and then packaged for export and delivered to Sony, Basingstoke. All components were then flown to Turkmenistan.

OSS flew trained engineers to the site in Ashgabat, and the mobile system was installed in three days, without one problem arising, and to the client’s complete satisfaction.

Job done!
