Farmington Hills now has a total of six
facilities. With over 385 full-time employees and an additional 300
part-time summer crew, Farmington Hills has now recognized the benefit of
Flex-Y-Plan's versatility and ease of reconfiguration features. "There
has been a furniture project in the works virtually at every point over
the past three years," declares Lasley.
"We
are constantly reconfiguring and updating area. Once an area is done
in the Flex-Y-Plan furniture, our people see how nice it is and they want
to add more." |

 | The Support Services and Traffic Division utilize several panel
heights to incorporate varying degrees of privacy. |

 |
| Flex-Y-Plan made use of existing walls, windows and building
electrical by combining Factors Desking System with the panel mounted
furniture. |
|
|
 |
| Private offices and open plan offices maintain a consistent, unified
look with coordinating style and finishes. |

Each department at the City values
different aspects of their furniture purchases, yet none is more
intimately involved with the various stages of each project than
purchasing. "In purchasing, the old adage 'you get what you
pay for applies," observes Kelly Monico, Senior Buyer at
Farmington Hills. "Yet in the case of Flex-Y-Plan, I feel
like we get even more than what we pay for."
"Michigan Corporate and Flex-Y-Plan are very professional and
regularly go above and beyond," continues Monico. "They
have been accommodating to our needs and to our budget. They zero in
on what we need and visualize how it can be even more than expected.
Many of the reconfiguration ideas they recommended have saved us
money. We can always ties in new product with existing and know that
we will have consistent quality and finishes." |
