Rack Inventory & Dual Cabling Project for a Fortune 500 Retailer

Background & Challenge

A Fortune 500 retailer needed to complete a large-scale technology upgrade across its national footprint. The project required conducting a comprehensive rack inventory while simultaneously installing new cabling to support a separate POS system rollout. With over 1,100 stores in 49 states, the challenge was to execute the work efficiently, consistently, and without disrupting critical retail operations.

NET’s Approach

NET was selected as the vendor of choice due to its proven ability to manage complex national rollouts. The approach included:

  1. Comprehensive Rack Inventory

    • Conducted detailed documentation of rack configurations and equipment to establish a clear, accurate baseline for IT infrastructure.

  2. Dual Cabling Deployment

    • Installed structured cabling to support the new POS systems while onsite, reducing the need for multiple site visits and minimizing disruption.

  3. National Rollout Management

    • Leveraged project management expertise to coordinate across 1,100 stores, ensuring consistent execution and tight scheduling across nearly every U.S. state.

Results

Within a 5-month timeframe, NET successfully delivered:

  • Rack inventory completed across 1,100 stores

  • Dual cabling installed to support new POS systems

  • Streamlined onsite operations by combining inventory and cabling into a single visit

  • Minimized downtime and ensured smooth rollout across all store locations
