Deployment process

From drawings to commissioning.

Phase 01

Site assessment

  • Walk the facility with your facilities director and IT lead.
  • Document all access points, blind spots, network topology, and conduit paths.
  • Identify regulatory and insurance compliance requirements.

Deliverable: site survey report + risk register

Phase 02

Design + drawing

  • Author the complete security overlay on your architectural drawings.
  • Every device placement, cable run, and power drop is documented.
  • Shop drawings submitted for AHJ approval before any material is ordered.

Deliverable: stamped security drawings + BOM

Phase 03

Installation

  • Licensed low-voltage crews. Zero subcontractors for critical infrastructure.
  • Phased installation to avoid operational disruption.
  • Daily progress reports tied to the floor plan drawing set.

Deliverable: as-built drawings + test records

Phase 04

Commissioning

  • Field testing of every device against the design specification.
  • Staff training for operators and IT admins.
  • 12-month support SLA with 4-hour response for critical faults.

Deliverable: commissioning certificate + SLA contract

Typical timeline
Assessment through commissioning in 6 to 16 weeks depending on facility size. Phased installation available for occupied buildings.
Licensed + bonded -- all 50 states
