Our standards-based designs ensure that any other system that follows governing bodies of the internet like IEEE, MEF, IETF or others will integrate into the system without requiring modifications. This also avoids proprietary protocols causing vendor lock-in and incapability in products between manufacturers.

Every system should be designed for maximum uptime as reasonably dictated by budget and acceptable risk. The design for full redundancy has an upfront cost but may have significant savings in operational efficiency, while other systems require maximum uptime for public safety such as train signal systems and tunnel ventilation.

The design needs to allow for a support model sustainable to the individual organization. Our support gives you the ability to determine:

• Traffic flows.
• User connections.
• Performance and health.

Support is a critical component in design—if the operations teams and supporting staff are unable to troubleshoot or explain the design to a third party, the system will ultimately be seen as a failure.

User adoption is the key to a successful design. The best ROI for a system is to have the users benefit and increase productivity or sales. We believe that a crucial part of design and integration is having your user community, training and support in place. Change is one of the most difficult challenges faced in technology. The first consideration should be “will it benefit the user?”
