Commercial furniture projects involve coordination between multiple parties — the buyer, the dealer, the manufacturer, the architect/designer, the installation crew, the building management, and IT. Each handoff is a potential failure point. A comprehensive checklist ensures that every party knows their responsibilities and deadlines before the project kicks off, not after something goes wrong.

The checklist this tool generates is organized by project phase: planning, procurement, pre-installation, installation day, and post-installation. Each phase includes tasks tailored to your project type — a new office buildout has different requirements than a furniture refresh or an office move. For example, a buildout requires architectural coordination and permit timelines, while a refresh focuses on asset disposition and phased rollouts.

The most commonly missed items on furniture projects: scheduling the freight elevator for delivery day, confirming power/data drops are installed before furniture arrives, coordinating IT for monitor arms and cable management, having touch-up supplies on hand for installation-day dings, and building in a day between installation and employee move-in for punch list items.
