AVI-SPL provides a robust set of resources for monitoring and managing a customer’s infrastructure deployment. We’ve categorized our services below so you can easily understand how we can help you. Together, these make up our holistic approach to client satisfaction.
These services start before a project materializes. Our engineers perform network assessments and site surveys. We can recommend a system design or specify a comprehensive solution. We may also develop an implementation plan, which provides a step-by-step roadmap of the technology and resources required. From there, AVI-SPL can also provide project management services, acting as the on-site director of the implementation plan.
Once we have a solution design and a project implementation plan, we go to work integrating the solution into your environment. These services can range from fabrication (which we do at our own facilities), to installation at your locations, integration with your network, our network or another hosted (cloud-based) service, and then testing that the overall solution is working as a seamless extension of your business.
Our managed services take the stress off of companies that don’t have the internal resources to constantly maintain their solutions. Our portfolio includes remote endpoint monitoring, as well as Strategic Onsite Solutions, which embeds AVI-SPL personnel with you to directly and personally manage day-to-day functions—from technical to creative support.
