Challenge:

One of the largest full-service pallet rack producers in North America was in the final stages of installation for a midwestern distribution center covering over 1 million square feet.  During the inspection, it was found, all industrial stairways in the pick module were produced to incorrect building code.  The customer came to Elevate with a need to engineer, manufacture, deliver and assist installation of new stairways in less than 3 weeks.

Solution:

Elevate worked with layouts of the customer's pick module to correctly size and virtually fit-up stairways built to the correct code.  Elevate was able to provide a solution which:

• Used a specific stairway design which would allow the customer to assemble the stairway in sections within the existing pick module, to eliminate any need to disassemble racking in order to install the new stairways.
• Delivered all six stairways in the required timeframe to meet the deadline
• Included installation drawings and instructions
