Technology Planning Services

Accurate knowledge about the current state of a school districts’s technology infrastructure and related IP-connected systems is critical for long-range strategic and accurate capital planning.

How Technology Planning Works

Most school districts lack qualified staff to perform comprehensive, objective surveys of the cables, spaces, and pathways that comprise your district’s mission-critical technology infrastructure. Led by a Registered Communications Distribution Designer (RCDD), a Technology Conditions Survey (TCS) provides a needs-based, accurate look at your technology infrastructure and IP-connected systems.

Technology infrastructure and IP-based building systems included in our Comprehensive Technology Planning services includes:

  • 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
