What are Installation, Deployment & Refresh Services?
At PC Mall, our focus is on helping our clients achieve improvements in business operations. We provide seamless IT lifecycle refresh services through our combined capabilities of procurement, warehousing, integration and national deployment. Our teams have handled everything from small, single location desktop installations including servers, desktops, mobile devices, printers, networking equipment, patch panels, phone systems and displays. We offer comprehensive support for both PC and Apple systems and devices.
A technology refresh often requires your company to make special arrangements to ensure that technology is fully functional and quickly deployed to minimize end-user downtime. This may include allocation space to warehouse and stage equipment as well as to process the older assets that are being replaced. In many instances, insufficient space, equipment build and imaging time, and end-user data migration, result in a refresh process that can be cumbersome and slow. Optimally, companies would like to receive an end-user request for equipment refresh and be able to respond quickly - with little burden on the IT department.
Our PC Mall team provides these services as a part of the value-add surrounding our procurement process. We provide bundles - based on your standards - that incorporate the equipment, imaging, and configuration instructions, thereby simplifying the ordering process. Once the request for equipment is received, we pull products from our warehouse and move them into our integration facility. Our integrators then build, image, and configure the equipment, making sure to provide asset tagging, custom labels, and any other function that will eliminate additional labor and improve field deployment times. We can also work with you to identify technology and processes that will improve your efficiency to manage these deployed assets. Many organizations have chosen PC Mall to manage the ordering, integration, staging, deployment, and disposal of technology to reduce the cost and burden associated with an equipment refresh. Let our PC Mall specialists show you how these services can benefit your organization.

Asset Tagging & Reporting
Asset tagging and reporting is a service that can be customized to your requirements. It provides for the placement of a specially created asset tag or specialized bar code on a system unit and/or packaging. This also includes the creation of an asset tracking report using either software supplied by you or an Excel spreadsheet.
Let our years of experience with image management, integration, asset tracking and tagging ensure the success of your next project.

From day-to-day single refreshes to large-scale deployments, PC Mall provides seamless IT lifecycle services through our combined capabilities of procurement, warehousing, integration and national deployment.
Our large national team of certified engineers, technicians, and project managers are experts in their field with over 4000 certifications between them.

Either way, you will benefit from partnering with us, a company that truly understands the complexities involved in IT deployment of both PC and Apple systems.
Project Lifecycle Services
A major deployment project involves far more than just having qualified people install the equipment at your location. It requires the precision performance and coordination of many activities before the equipment ever gets there. A deployment plan has to be developed, hardware and software has to be ordered and received and systems must be configured, integrated, imaged, tested and asset tagged. And they have to be stored until your site is ready for them. The systems then must be shipped and received where the deployment team will be dispatched to unpack, install, and test them. Finally, existing equipment must be packed up and shipped off to be redeployed, disposed or recycled.
PC Mall can help you plan, deploy manage and refresh all your IT equipment, no matter what mix of computers, servers and devices you require. The greatest value we bring to our customers is our capability to supply all the necessary services associated with a deployment and to tie it all together though our project management.
Project Management Services
PC Mall's Project Managers provide the oversight and management of all the people, processes and technology of a project so that they all come together at the right time and the right place. When you engage with us on a project, your Project Manager will become your primary point of contact. The PM will work with you to:- Develop the project charter and realization of the scope
- Create a detailed project plan with activities, task, assignments and time frames defined
- Set up communication and escalation protocols
- Risk management
- Change management planning
