Yesterday, we move office. On time, on schedule.
This project was lead by Capt Lee, very well supported by our small team. I was concerned about the stress and physical assertions on our "matured staff". Happily, they took it in good stride over the last few days of packing and stacking cartons of boxes of documents etc.
There are many things to take care of during and before the actual move. Everyone help out in a nice way. I can say we enjoyed the moving work together as well as looking forward to a completely new and comfortable environment even as we will miss our office at Hockkian huaykuan building where we stayed for the last four years. Time flys...
Alexcier is a small building, just like the Huaykuan, our neighbours are dynamic professional and small enterprises. Just as we did at the Huaykuan, Monsoon hope to contribute to the buzz here at the Alexcier which I am sure will be humming soon when everyone moves in.
We are among the first to move in. Of course for the next few weeks, we may have to endure a bit of dust and noises from the renovations works still being carried out for the moment.
Alexcier is outside the CBD, address 237 Alexandra Road, #05-05. Our new telephone is 64745618.
Coming by car, you can park at our building carpark from Alexandra Road or Leng Kee Road access. We are within 5 to 7 minutes walk from Redhill MRT station. Many bus services stop at the bus stop in front of our building. Outside of CBD and the ERP gantries, your visit to us will be less expensive, more pleasant.
If you don't mind the afternoon sun, we proudly present you our own Monsoon private sundeck, where you can choose to have a tan, a glass of beer or wine watching the equatorial sun setting on our beautiful city skyline. Our building will have a cafeteria on the second floor where we can have our meals and coffee breaks which we do from time to time for management, business and brainstorming sessions.
The lower level of our new building will be occupied by car showrooms just as the many other buildings along this stretch of the road are mostly car showrooms. So you can visit us and have a chance to ogle at the many and different models to make you drool and enjoy the sights before visiting our office.
The office layout are nicely planned, simple but clean with soothing colour theme, conducive to a small working environment. As usual, I will have a small room for myself which double as a meeting room. As usual, We took the chance to reduce our storage space intentionally so that we are not storing unnecessary stuffs. Much as possible, we are keeping most of our correspondences, operational and accounts document online and in soft copies. We switch our broadband service to Singtel. As usual, the switch brings with it, struggles with new configurations to connect up our vista laptops. Capt Ngoh, our patient in house IT expert is still working on it.
I have asked to reduce the number of powerpoints as we are now working with laptops, our power need for equipment should be constantly reviewed for minimal environment impact, reduce wastage and minimising the use of resources as far as possible.
With the high cost of operations, inflation and fuel prices skyrocketting, we need to be ahead of this race to be more efficient and productive, yet making our organisation more pleasant to work in. I am glad we are thinking of such issues ahead of time.
Small outfit we may be, we will continue to think creatively to ensure we remain profitable, relevant, recognising our many responsibilities to our many stakeholders.
Please drop in to visit us.
