Why Office Furniture Salespeople Should Sell Agile Furniture
Agile Furniture workstations have built-in power, helping salespeople earn 30-50% more than similar products.
To boost revenue, focus on fitting workstations to customer needs instead of selling more units. With Agile Furniture, customers can save on costs like electrical contractors, permits, floor coring, and high installation fees, reducing overall expenses.
The Challenges of Cabling Older Office Buildings
Well, for starters, you rarely find proper cable pathways. Modern buildings have dedicated conduits, cable trays, and riser shafts. In older buildings, you’re often dealing with whatever’s available: cramped ceiling spaces, shared ductwork with electrical wiring, sometimes even having to run cables along baseboards or through walls.
STORM Explains the Concept of a DC-Powered Building
A DC-powered building is a structure that utilizes direct current (DC) electricity as its primary power source, representing a significant shift from traditional alternating current (AC) systems. This innovative approach is particularly relevant given modern energy demands.
Integrating on-site power generation, fault-managed power systems, and agile workplace design enhances building operational efficiency, sustainability, and adaptability making them increasingly popular in commercial and residential settings
Reduced Power Usage and the Growth of Office Battery Power
For the Flexible Workspace segment, lower laptop power consumption is a significant factor that suggests the segment has a shelf life of perhaps three to five years at best. When laptop battery life is extended beyond the eight-hour mark, the need for supplemental power sources becomes largely unnecessary.
In the case of the Agile Workspace and DC-powered Building segments, lower power consumption positively influences the overall feasibility and practicality of the proposed solutions. It is important to note that 120V AC power is often excessive for low-powered devices, making it an inefficient choice. Furthermore, the century-old electrical infrastructure standards dictate that too much power is delivered through too few receptacles, which creates a variety of challenges. This system is not only costly to install, but it also proves to be impossible to relocate and poses significant safety risks.
