We were put in a rush situation to move 2 airplanes after lunch from ramp to hanger; per management for inspections. I was right seat for the taxi operation and called Ground Control confirming taxiway was active for us and was cleared to taxi on [taxiway]. After starting to taxi; we were stopped in a partial turn by ground and told to use [taxiway] to exit ramp instead of [taxiway] and needed to turn. We were already pulled out a little and turned to the opposite direction; so as we made a tight left turn to the correct direction and the right winglet impacted an object next to the taxiway in front of ramp.Do to the extraordinary circumstances of the Coronavirus pandemic and the subsequent urgent grounding and parking of the majority of our airplanes; there was an urgent rush to evaluate and sanitize airplanes which involved relocating some airplanes after already parked on a cramped ramp in which we were given very limited information regarding the rules of the agreement made with FBO on movement of airplanes on their cramped ramp and taxiways. Also; game plan changes several times a day made it hard to stay focused on the current task when we were getting reassigned midway through tasks several times a day.I would suggest to make higher up management do a briefing before starting on a complex task like we had because of the Coronavirus pandemic; don't ever get in a rush no matter the circumstances or management requests and always tow on and off of unfamiliar ramp areas.
Maintenance Technician reported a collision with an object while taxing aircraft for maintenance. The rush to ground planes due to the COVID-19 pandemic was referenced as a contributing factor.
