Project Description
This was a prestige project for one the world's leading investment banking and securities trading Company's.

Phase 1 Involved the installation of 17,000 outlets on the 45th and 46th floors. Able Data created an under-floor grid system of over 1,400 floor boxes.

Phase 2 By the second phase of the implementation the company's staff had already increased from 500 to 750. In just four weeks, Able Data was able to install 8,200 new voice and data outlets ready for occupation.

Phase 3 In the last phase of the project, the original Bear Stearns office on the 25th floor was upgraded. The expansion provided Bear Stearns with the perfect opportunity to upgrade this office to a higher capacity system. Since the tower houses a variety of businesses there is often a lot of construction work happening and managing the supply of materials required a lot of organisation.
