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.
