Employment

System consulting is one of our most important services. With years of industry knowledge, design, and applications experience, we work closely with our clients to create affordable security, communications and presentation system solutions.

Client Needs and Objectives:

Systems consulting begin with an in-depth fact-finding discussion of our client's communication or entertainment system needs and objectives. Throughout these discussions, one of our goals is to completely understand our client's expectations, with respect to what they believe an installed security, communication or entertainment system will provide. We then work to conceptualize an affordable solution that will satisfy their objectives, expectations and budget.

Discovery / Review of Architectuals / Site Visit:

This phase of NOR-COM's Consultation, is for compiling all the details that will be involved. It includes discussions with project architects, mechanical engineers, electrical engineers, and integrators who are working on the project. From time-to time site visits are made when verification is needed of dimensions, or construction status.

Field Tests / Simulations:

Whether it's a boardroom audio-visual system, sound reinforcement for a house of worship, background music at a restaurant, or public address at a sports facility, it's standard procedure to acoustically and visually measure every environment for calculation accuracy. This process is our assurance of success at providing the best advice and solution specifications. Typically, when consulting and designing sound systems, we make in-field measurements, if possible. If the project is under construction, or still on the drafting board, we use a variety of computer-aided simulations to determine the best type of equipment and calculate it's optimum location.

Presentation / Recommendations / Documents:

Based on the information available, and in conjunction with our measurements and calculations, we produce a report recommending a system design. Our report includes all specifications and is inclusive of manufacturer data sheets for products that meet the design criteria. When the decision is made to install our system, we produce all required construction drawings. They include any mechanical submissions, power specifications, low-voltage conduit requirements, outlet and pull box locations, communication equipment locations, general construction notes, and a scope of work detailing the desired installation results.

We view Systems Consulting as a time to learn, a time to teach, and a time to build client confidence with our knowledge and ability to deliver. Our goal is to always present state-of-the-art technology that will most effectively and affordably fulfill our client's needs and objectives.
