WHY BUY OPEN PLAN?
More than half your life will be consumed in the workplace. Affordably create a community of engaged employees. Reduce your carbon footprint and uphold a professional standard of quality in your office. Our systems encourage a free-thinking, collaborative business community.
Based in Richmond, Virginia, Open Plan Systems traditionally has been known for remanufacturing Herman Miller AO2 systems furniture to provide a high-quality, low-cost, and environmentally-friendly source for modular furniture. In addition to our sustainable solutions, our new OPS2 line of office furniture is made to major manufacturer standards with the added benefits of flexibility and selection, all at a significant cost-savings.
With more than 30 years of office furniture industry experience, Open Plan Systems has developed into the largest remanufacturer of Herman Miller A02 on the East Coast with dealers in more than 30 states carrying our product lines. Open Plan Systems is a leading distributor of seating, case goods, and filing systems, and has developed the innovative tile system and modular walls.
Our products are built to stand the test of time. All of our new and remanufactured products are compatible with the original AO2 product.
Our Quality
At Open Plan Systems, we offer “A” grade quality selections by utilizing many of the same techniques and technologies as most major manufacturers. Combine our efficiencies as a small manufacture, along with overseas supply chains and you find unparalleled service and savings.
Our Selection
Much more than a remanufacturer, Open Plan Systems continues to provide cost-effective solutions for office environments by offering new and sustainable panel systems, tile systems, modular walls, seating, casegoods, storage and complimentary accessories for any work station.
Our Value Pricing
With the advantages of being a small manufacturer with less overhead and a more personal relationship with our suppliers, we are able to offer significant cost savings at 25 – 40% below the larger manufactures!
Our Green Initiative
More Than a Green Initiative, sustainability is a core business strategy and responsibility. With our driven eco-friendly efforts, we take a Kaizen approach in our environmental innovations, leadership efforts and quality performance. We take extreme pride as a U.S. Green Building Council member and support the following:
- Fabric Recycling
- Florescent Bulb Reclaim
- Biomass Oven
- Cardboard Recycling
- Aerosol Can Reclaim
Our Facility
Our 10-acre complex includes 135,000 square feet of manufacturing, shipping and administration buildings, as well as a 125,000 square foot receiving and production prep facility. We have invested more than $3 million in our state-of-the-art manufacturing facility, allowing us to offer consistent and efficient turnaround times, some as short as 2 weeks from receipt of order.
Sustainability is the core of the remanufacturing process. Sustainable practices, including recycling, add even more value to our product lines, and reduce our impact on the environment.
Remanufacturing
Though Open Plan Systems has become a leader in manufacturing new systems furniture, we are proud of our roots in remanufacturing. Remanufactured stations typically provide up to 40% savings off the cost of new, though they are held to the same standards of quality and durability. Under the OPS2 Sustainable Series, our Promotional, C2, and Quick Ship options allow us to provide our greatest discounts through the remanufacturing of panel cores, connector cores, and overheads.
Within the Sustainable Series, the top cap is plastic, a two piece rail system where the slot channel is always black, and the rail shell is the same as the trim color. The 4-circuit power outlets are located 10 inches from the end of the base on each side, two duplex receptacles on each side of 30”- 60” panel and one on each side of a 24” panel. Separate jumpers are used to connect power from one panel to another.
UL-Approved
We take an active interest in the safety of your workplace. Every fabric we use is class A fire rated and our new and remanufactured products are approved by Underwriters Laboratories Incorporated. Many insurance policies have clauses limiting the insurance company’s liability in the case of a claim due to the failure of a non-UL-listed device.
Protect your investments by making sure the product you buy is UL and NEC-approved.
Warranty
All of our new and remanufactured system products are covered by a 10-year warranty. Our new seating products are covered by a 5-year warranty on parts and a 2-year warranty on fabric. Our casegoods are covered by a 10-year warranty for the original purchaser from defects in material and workmanship.
