Project Management & System Integration
When installing multiple systems or constructing a new facility, a best practice is emerging for managing the installation and integration of complex systems.
Known as technology contracting, it involves assigning a single point of responsibility upfront to bring an enterprise-wide perspective to managing the planning, design, installation, integration, commissioning and service of low-voltage systems, clinical applications like nurse call, and supporting infrastructure. Technology contracting can save time, reduce risk, minimize unnecessary duplication, and decrease construction and operating costs while deploying and integrating technology in an orderly manner to achieve desired outcomes.
