In the contract furniture industry the term workstation can be used interchangeably with an individual workspace or cubicle. It is in these spaces where personnel carry out their tasks more than likely using their computer – which is also called a workstation.
Office workstations are where the business of the company occurs says Bruce Mallett of EQA Office furniture. Their size and design can directly impact the productivity of a company, which is why care should be taken in selecting work stations that support efficiency. New companies facing budget restrictions to furnish their facilities often find attractive solutions in used office workstations.
Sources include companies that are moving or downsizing and office furniture manufacturers and dealers that have excess inventory available at attractive savings.
Used office workstations should not be confused with worn, stained, shabby workstations - unless clearly marked "as is." Look for vendors that thoroughly recondition these products by reupholstering panels and making certain that work surfaces, storage bins and shelving are spotless and like new. Voice, data and power cabling should comply with industry standards. If work surfaces are not built in, then office chairs and office desks should also be like new.
When fitting out larger floor spaces be assured that vendors have sufficient quantities of used workstations in stock to do the job. Various sizes of workstations can be selected based on the work being performed by individuals or teams. What is to be avoided is a hodgepodge of disparate colors.
In short, used office workstations should be indistinguishable from brand-new product. Other criteria in selecting used office work stations, desks and chairs include a satisfaction warranty, delivery anywhere in the U.S. and shipment within 5 – 7 days of giving the order.
