Comprehensive Technology Planning

Accurate knowledge about the current state of an organization’s technology infrastructure and related IP-connected systems is critical for long-range strategic planning. However, most organizations lack qualified staff to perform these surveys while system vendors may not take a client-centric approach.

Led by a Registered Communications Distribution Designer (RCDD), a Technology Conditions Survey (TCS) provides an accurate look at your technology infrastructure and IP-connected systems including:

• Technology infrastructure including communications cabling, pathways, and spaces such as
• Telecommunications Rooms and IT-equipment cabinets
• Network connectivity including wired and wireless
• Communications systems including Phone, Public Address and Master Clock
• Instructional systems (smartboards, projectors, classroom audio)
• Security systems (video surveillance, intrusion detection, access control)
• Student and staff computing devices

The four major deliverables are shown below. Select any element to see a detailed sample PDF.
