Infrastructure

Installed once, relied on daily

The physical layer inside a building: cabling, in-building mobile coverage, nurse call and the systems that depend on them. Specified and installed rather than subscribed to, assessed against how the building is actually used, and handed over with the documentation to prove it performs.

Nobody owns the building

Physical works sit in an awkward place. They are too specialised for an IT team that runs software, and too technical for a facilities team that runs plant. So cabling, coverage and nurse call are usually bought one at a time, by whoever was closest to the problem, from whoever quoted.

What that produces is a building full of installations nobody can evidence. No design record, no commissioning results, no certification paperwork, and no clear answer when somebody asks whether it still performs the way it did on the day it was signed off. It is also how a site ends up with four contractors who each own a layer and none of whom own the interaction between them.

The work itself is rarely the hard part. Being able to prove it was done properly, years later, is.

The handover is the deliverable

Anyone can hang equipment. What separates an installation you can rely on from one you merely have is the design that justified it and the commissioning record that proves it performs. In five years that paperwork is the only thing left that can answer the question.

Common questions

Do you work on occupied sites?

Yes, and it is most of what we do. Hospitals, aged care, corrections and commercial buildings are rarely empty, so the staging and the out-of-hours work are part of the design rather than something negotiated afterwards.

What do we get at handover?

The design that justified the build, the equipment schedule, the commissioning results measured on site, and whatever certification the relevant standard requires. It is the part most often skipped, and the only part that still matters in year five.

Start with an assessment

Physical works are scoped from the building, not from a brochure. That means a site assessment before any number is put in front of you.
