CICERO, N.Y. — Gaylord Archival, located at 7282 William Barry Blvd. in Cicero, has several projects it’s focusing on to support its growth in the year ahead.
“We’re renovating our offices to maximize productivity by creating a combination of quiet workspaces and collaboration areas,” Jim Burke, president of Gaylord Archival, tells CNYBJ in an email message. “In addition, conference rooms will be updated with state-of-the-art technology to optimize engagement with customers, suppliers, and industry partners.”
The firm is also adding about 10,000 square feet of manufacturing space, investing in equipment, and hiring new co-workers to help support its new product-development initiatives, Burke adds.
In addition, the company president says Gaylord is making “significant” investments in computer infrastructure that will modernize its business platforms and result in an “enhanced customer experience” when the project is completed in 2023.
And when asked about Gaylord’s goals for 2022, Burke describes them as “business transformation” and “innovation.”
“Gaylord has a rich and deep history of inventing products that solve problems our customers face as they preserve our collective culture and history. We are building on our strong foundation, ensuring that we develop new products that meet the challenges of today and tomorrow,” Burke says. “We’ve become a nimbler organization as we transformed from a print centric ‘catalogue’ company to a digital first company.”
He also notes that Gaylord continues to adapt to the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic. Company employees have successfully modified processes and procedures to protect themselves, coworkers, vendors, and customers.
He went to say that Gaylord Archival is “humbled and honored” to be considered a CNY Legend.
“We’re a small, but mighty, company serving the needs of museums, archives, and libraries nationwide. Over the decades, we’ve evolved with our customers, always serving them from our home base [near] Syracuse. With the investments we’re making in people, processes and technology, we’re looking forward to another 125 years of growth and innovation in the CNY community,” says Burke.
