Facility- Reduction/ Expansion

12/18/2017

 
Typical Situation: Our client is complaining their location does not have enough space. They may wish to change their location. They may want to explore buying their own building and want some comparisons.
 
When you hear a business owner say:
·         “There is just not enough space here anymore.”
·         “The building owner has been neglecting maintenance”
·         “I think it is time explore buying my own building and need some comparisons.”
 
Commercial Real Estate Broker works with businesses that are looking to lease or buy office, industrial, or retail space in the Chicago area. Our process is geared to reduce the pain involved in the business relocation process.
 
How they Work Starts with meeting with the client to better understand what his/her real estate needs are. They do an extensive property search to generate a list tailored to our client’s specific needs. Then a tour of the properties that have been further vetted.  Once a property is selected the broker will advise our client during the negotiation process.

Technology- Hardware Recycle

12/11/2017

 
Typical Situation: Our client has waited to get rid of equipment until their IT closets, cubicles or offices areas are filled up with old equipment and they are stumbling over it in the normal course of their day. 
 
When you hear a business owner say:
·         “Do you know of any place that accepts donations of computers, laptops, tablets, monitors for schools, etc?”
·         “Do you know where I can recycle computers, laptops, tablets, monitors, mobile phones, office phones?”
·         “Can I write off old IT equipment?”
·         “We sometimes sell old computers to employees.”
 
The Company picks up electronic and IT equipment from companies.  They securely erase or destroy the data drives.  If equipment is functional and has value they can resell/repurpose equipment.  They offer receipts for transfer of liability and audit reports for customer compliance reporting.  Companies can either participate in 50/50 revenue share or treat the equipment as donation due to our mission – 501(c)(3) status.
 
How they Work: They have a 100% dedication to industry certified R2 standards and processes with 75% of our employees being developmentally disabled.  Drop-offs are free and the pickup charge of flat $190 (unless special equipment handling needs, CRTs* or monitors*) is the only cost.
