Structured cabling or open ceiling during fit-out
Cabling planned before the walls are closed
Pathways, riser locations and drop counts are agreed while they are still cheap to change, not discovered after the ceiling grid is in.
Infrastructure Planning
Get the technology plan right before the walls close.
New office, renovation, expansion or relocation. CompFlorida plans the cabling, connectivity and vendor sequence around your construction schedule, so the technology is ready on the day you move in.

One Point of Coordination
Why this comes first
Technology decisions get made last, and cost the most to reverse.
Cabling routes, carrier lead times and equipment rooms are decided by the construction schedule whether anyone plans for them or not. Once drywall is up or a circuit order is late, the options get expensive.
Fiber or carrier equipment, or street works
Carrier orders placed against real lead times
Fiber and circuit delivery can run months, not weeks. We order against the construction programme so connectivity is live before occupancy.
One point of accountability
Carriers, cabling contractors, AV and security vendors coordinated through a single owner, so nobody points at anybody else.
Built for how you will work
Capacity planned for the headcount, devices and locations you expect in three years, not only the ones you have today.
Continuity through the move
Phased cutover so phones, internet and systems keep working while the business relocates.
What planning covers
From the first floor plan to the day you switch over.
Planning is documented, not verbal. You get drawings, a vendor list, an order schedule and a cutover plan you can hand to any contractor.
- Site and floor plan review — equipment rooms, pathways, power and cooling.
- Structured cabling design — drop counts, riser routes and labelling standards.
- Carrier and circuit planning — availability, lead times and redundancy options.
- Network and Wi-Fi architecture — coverage planning for the finished space.
- Vendor evaluation and coordination — scope, quotes, schedule and a single owner.
- Cutover and continuity plan — sequence, rollback and who is on site on the day.

How it works
Four stages, tied to your construction schedule.
Stage 01
Assess
Walk the site or review the plans. Understand headcount, systems, timeline and what already exists.
Stage 02
Design
Cabling, network and connectivity documented against the floor plan, with options and costs.
Stage 03
Coordinate
Vendors selected and scheduled. Orders placed early enough for the delivery dates to be real.
Stage 04
Cut over
Phased switch to the new space with a rollback plan, so the business keeps operating while the change happens.
Who this is for
Projects where technology cannot be an afterthought.
Office fit-out or commercial interior
New offices and fit-outs
Moving into shell space, or rebuilding an existing floor around a new way of working.
Moving boxes or relocation day
Relocations
Two sites live at once, with a sequence that keeps phones and systems available throughout.
Multi-location, retail or clinic interior
Expansion and multi-site
Adding locations that need to match an existing standard rather than start from scratch each time.
Common questions
Before you start a project
How early should we bring you in?
As soon as there is a floor plan. Cabling pathways and carrier lead times are the two things that cause delays, and both are decided early.
Do you replace our contractor or IT provider?
No. CompFlorida plans and coordinates. Your existing providers keep doing their work, with one person making sure the pieces line up.
What if we already started construction?
Still worth a review. Some things get more expensive after a certain point, and knowing which ones is better than finding out at inspection.
Do you work outside South Florida?
CompFlorida is based in Boca Raton and works with organizations across Florida. Multi-site projects are coordinated centrally.
What does a planning engagement cost?
It depends on the size of the space and how many vendors are involved. The first conversation will tell you whether planning is needed at all.
Tell us about the project.
Share the location, the timeline and what stage you are at. We will tell you what needs deciding now and what can wait.
