Interior Design & Furniture Planning

Great interior design and furniture planning go hand in hand. Our goal is to create environments where employees perform to the best of their ability. Many factors go into the design and planning, including providing functional furnishings based on the use of the space, accessible technology, proper lighting, and noise control.

How the space is going to be used is paramount to providing the best solutions for employees. Is the space a private office or a workstation? A collaborative area or a quiet room?

Interior design solutions can increase productivity in the workspace by providing businesses with solutions custom to the needs of the space, whether that be private office space, open office space, collaborative areas, break rooms or cafes, a quiet room, or a high traffic area.

Design and Planning for People, and for Success

People spend hours in their workspaces. Making sure that space is not only functional but also inspiring, empowering, and encouraging is important to the productivity of a business. With the correct furnishings, placement, technology, finish, fabric, and material selections, creating spaces that enhance productivity is possible.

Strategically planning out the commercial design of your space will ultimately help your business grow. This is an often-overlooked aspect that one would be remiss to ignore. 

The design of your workspace can affect not only your customer experience but also that of your employees. Well-planned workspaces affect employee attraction and retention. The design and function of your workspace say much about your company’s culture and goals and can be important aspects of business growth.

 

What We Do

The Business Interiors’ Client Advisor leads the BI Design and Client Services Teams and brings contract furnishings experience to the client through all phases of the project.

BI’s Client Services Team coordinates all actions to fulfill the requirements of the project as put forth by the Client Advisor and Design Teams. The Client Services Team is responsible for preparation of final quotations, product procurement, installation scheduling, installation documentation, and clearing punch list items.

The factory-certified Field Services Team is responsible for all Final Mile activities including project site survey, receiving manufacturers product shipments, product warehousing, multi-manufacturer product prep for project installation load-out (single and/or multi-phased), installation scheduling, installation supervision, and project punch.

We understand how critical proper delivery and installation are to your schedules, people, and work activities.

Our MillerKnoll-certified installers are fully trained in stringent installation guidelines and best practices. You can be assured that these practices are demonstrated and adhered to throughout the installation process.

 

Project Process 

As your furnishings dealer partner, Business Interiors realizes that we are only one part of a large team that is tasked with delivering a product to its owner. The project schedule provides a clear map for the entire project team by providing insight into the sequence of activities that must be completed in order to deliver the completed project. Business Interiors understands and willingly accepts the responsibility it must bear toward the entire project team for its part of the schedule.

Since 2020, we have all become aware of the global supply chain challenges throughout the world. The contract furnishings industry has not been immune to these challenges. However, we, along with our manufacturer partners, have made significant progress in employing protocols that have lessened the impacts that we face together. 

  1. Manufacturers have increased the use of forecasting tools through their dealer network to predict customer demand more accurately.
  2. Manufacturers are contracting with multiple suppliers for “high-use” crucial materials and parts.
  3. BI’s Client Advisor will steer the Design Team during the product selection process away from product lines that have consistently experienced delays.
  4. BI’s Project Management Team will interact daily with manufacturers for each order to monitor progress against scheduled delivery dates.
  5. BI’s Project Management Team will advise and execute material “holds” whenever possible to prevent “out-of-stock” delays.
  6. When necessary to preserve the schedule, BI will advise clients to accept early shipping and storage from certain manufacturers for project-critical items to ensure timely availability for scheduled installation.
