Getting a new FF# but keeping status from old FF#?

This is a question I imagine which will have a similar answer for any FF program but is really more relevent to United. At our company, if we book our travel through the corporate travel agent, our company keeps the miles but we still get the status-like Silver or Gold depending on the program. So the current FF number that my travel agent has is where my status is measured. However, I would like to obtain a new FF number but keep my status. Anyone have any idea on how to do that?

If I am not being clear, let me know and I will try and clarify.
