Technology Giant Fast-Tracks Digitally

Don't let the "Micro" in Ingram Micro's name fool you. Founded in 1979 by a husband and wife team, the company has grown into the world's largest wholesale distributor of IT products from more than 1700 vendors in sectors like enterprise computing, data capture, point-of-sale (POS) and consumer electronics, with more than 200,000 customers in 170 countries worldwide. If you've been in the AV business for more than 20 minutes, chances are you've interacted with them one way or another. Over the summer and into the fall, Ingram Micro moved its headquarters from Santa Ana CA to an existing office facility in neighboring Irvine, on what was considered an ambitious fast-track, nine-week schedule. The move was made more complex by the fact that the existing office facility remained active throughout the renovation, with work on all three floors of the 154,000-plus-square-foot facility done concurrently, in order to keep up with the aggressive schedule.
