Moving a 20,000 m² warehouse's entire network, in three weeks

Buffalo International Logistics was relocating to a much larger warehouse on a tight timeline, while still locked into a fibre contract at the old premises. Fire-IT got them out of the contract, kept them online through the move, and built the new site from the ground up.

The challenge

Relocating to a new 20,000 m² warehouse against a hard operational deadline.
Still tied into an existing fibre contract at the premises they were leaving.
Multiple branches needing connectivity, structured cabling and redundant failover.

What we did

Negotiated an exit from the existing fibre contract.
Installed a temporary connectivity solution so operations never stopped during the move.
Designed and built the new warehouse network: structured cabling, roughly 100 access points and redundant failover paths across branches.

The results

Entire infrastructure moved into the new 20,000 m² warehouse within three weeks.
Warehouse operations remained live throughout the transition.
Further branch installations approved and underway off the back of the engagement.

“They managed to get us out of our existing fibre contract, install temporary solutions, and move all our infrastructure into the new warehouse within three weeks.”
