Technology Systems Commissioning
|
The Issue
When a new technology system is implemented in a school district, the vendor is often unaware of other existing systems including their functions and how the district uses them. The result is often a relatively standalone system that under-utilizes or does not integrate well with the district’s other systems.
Furthermore, existing systems are typically supported by personnel in different district departments so the overall knowledge of all of a district’s technology systems is not known by any one person. This leaves a vendor unable to fully leverage the new technology to best meet the district’s goals.
The Solution
The Result
A properly programmed and fully integrated set of systems that meet the clients’ predefined goals.

The Solution
- Evaluate the functionality of multiple manufacturers to see which solutions best meet the districts current process and future goals.
- Define customer operational criteria for the new system based on the district’s process for each type of security event ensuring the system meets district goals and is inter-operable with existing systems.
- Lead meetings to document the standard operation sequence of district staff and how the technology systems are currently used in each scenario.
- Lead meetings to establish the customers programming preferences for existing protocols and procedures including differences for day-to-day vs. emergency applications.
- Provide project oversight of vendor(s) to ensure job is completed accurately.
- Ensure proper equipment and System configuration is installed.
- Check installer testing results and hand-off documentation.
- Training oversight of the installing vendor to ensure the owner can successfully utilize the systems as intended.
- Ensure vendor provides adequate, timely training and reference materials including training manuals, step-by-step guides for annual tasks, and web resources.
The Result
A properly programmed and fully integrated set of systems that meet the clients’ predefined goals.
The Deliverables
Delivered via the client’s ML Binders™ Software subscribing account:
- A Theory of Operations Guide that describes how multiple systems inter-operate with each other and their role in the districts Safety, security, and communication protocols.
- A clearly documented integration of the Safety, Security, and communication systems, and their components (e.g. Door Contacts, Cameras, PA head ends, etc.) A planning document with system components identified and a drawing overview.
