Fred Trumm, formerly president of Rowley Schlimgen, a Madison, WI, Steelcase dealer, has created a new Madison-based company, Office Today, with business partners Arnie Olsen and Tom Osman. Office Today will use a “point-and-click” business plan to replace the traditional order-and-wait nature of office furniture purchasing. “Businesses need more speed, versatility, and value in the way they provide and furnish workspace for their people” says Mr. Trumm. Office Today uses on-line electronic catalogs and computer-aided planning tools to help small and medium-sized business visualize how various furniture selections will look and function in their space.
“We’ll have your office furnished in days or weeks, not months. And at very competitive prices,” said Mr. Trumm. The company’s brands include Allsteel, Bretford, Hon, and Interface; it has opened a new 10,000-sq.-ft. showroom and idea center at 5126 West Terrace Drive in Madison, and will serve small and medium sized businesses and architects and interior designers in Milwaukee, Janesville, Rockford, Fox Valley, and Green Bay, in addition to Madison. www.officetodayllc.com, 608.244.1400, ftrumm@officetoday.com.
