The Jolly Hog

The Challenge:

The Jolly Hog, a family-run business renowned for its award-winning sausages and bacon, faced a connectivity hurdle during its 2020 head office relocation. Their new space required a robust leased line, phone system, and video conferencing capabilities to maintain smooth operations. However, the standard leased line installation time of 60 working days threatened to delay their move-in date and disrupt business continuity.

The Solution:

First Class Comms, The Jolly Hog’s trusted communications provider, devised a swift solution to ensure a seamless transition:
Temporary 4G Solution: To bridge the 60-day wait for the leased line installation, FCC deployed multiple 4G routers at the new office. This temporary solution provided immediate internet access, allowing The Jolly Hog team to work uninterrupted from day one.
Leased Line Planning & Installation:FCC efficiently project-managed the leased line installation process. This included planning, fitment, testing, and a successful handover on schedule.

The Benefits:

  • Zero Downtime: The temporary 4G solution prevented any downtime during the move, ensuring The Jolly Hog’s business operations remained uninterrupted.
  • On-Time Completion: FCC’s project management expertise ensured the leased line was installed and operational within the expected timeframe.
  • Enhanced Communication Infrastructure: The new leased line, phone system, and video conferencing capabilities provided The Jolly Hog with a robust and reliable communication infrastructure to support its business growth.
  • Olly and the team wanted to move in as quickly as possible and knowing that the leased line order had a 60 working day completion, FCC went about installing multiple 4G routers so the team could carry on working in their new office without any downtime.

Summary

By proactively addressing the potential downtime and offering a comprehensive solution, First Class Comms facilitated a smooth move for The Jolly Hog. This case study exemplifies how FCC’s expertise and understanding of client needs can ensure a seamless transition during office relocations.
