Large-scale furnishing projects present a unique set of challenges that require careful planning, meticulous execution, and a deep understanding of various factors. Whether outfitting a sprawling manufacturing plant, a multi-location fast food chain, or a large breakroom, navigating these complexities can be daunting.
These projects often include multiple locations, diverse spaces, and significant quantities of furniture and fixtures, so it’s important to choose an experienced commercial furniture supplier to partner with. Here are a few challenges large projects can face:
Project Management
Effective project management is critical to the success of large-scale furnishing projects. Given the complexity and scale, these projects often involve specific deadlines and input from various stakeholders such as architects, interior designers, project managers, and facility managers.
When you work with Plymold, our Account Executives work with your team to review products, brainstorm ideas, and recommend improvements, ensuring budget adherence, timelines, and logistics.

With the plan in place, we schedule production to have your furnishings ready when needed. We are committed to completing your project with open communication, clear timelines, and quality installation, ensuring a smooth process.
Ensuring Consistency Across Locations
For projects involving multiple locations, ensuring consistency is a major challenge. This is particularly important for brands that need to maintain a uniform image and experience across all their sites.
The first step to ensure a uniform look and feel is to establish clear design guidelines and standards. This includes specifications for materials, colors, finishes, and layouts. To help maintain consistency in the quality and appearance of your breakroom or restaurant furniture and fixtures, centralize the procurement process by choosing a reputable manufacturer.

Coordination and Logistics
Effective coordination and logistics are essential for the smooth execution of large-scale furnishing projects. Coordinating the delivery and installation of furniture with other construction and renovation activities is critical to avoid delays and disruptions. This requires detailed scheduling and timeline management. Proper handling of furniture and fixtures is also important to prevent damage and ensure that items are in good condition when installed.
At Plymold, we work with you to ensure all furniture is on-site and properly installed. Our clients appreciate that we can palletize orders by a specific space so they ship and arrive together. From start to finish, we are committed to making your install process as smooth and seamless as possible!

Plymold takes sustainability seriously. We choose materials that are environmentally friendly, recyclable, and locally sourced. Our products are also made in the USA, minimizing shipping distance and carbon footprint. By choosing a manufacturer that prioritizes sustainability, you can decrease your organization’s environmental impact.
