This depth of experience provided Doug and his firms with the ability to see first hand virtually all aspects of engineered specialty systems deployed in a wide spectrum of applications – all centered around the protection of people, facilities and to ensure the success of mission critical emergency operations.

We understand that electronic security systems, automation, specialty communications and fire / life safety technologies used by facility end users and first responders is comprised of more than just hardware; it is a complex web of code compliance, engineered design, and rapid emergency response solutions coupled with operational training tailored to each unique location, application and mission.

Our team brings deep technical knowledge and emergency response field support experience to every project and mission, ensuring that critical engineered systems such as intelligent audio-visual surveillance, intrusion detection & analytics, mass notification, and automatic fire suppression systems are implemented to protect assets, mission critical operations, facilities and the persons within.

In addition to technical evaluations and design, we also provide training to fire inspectors, firefighters and law enforcement for first responder operations as it relates to using the complex engineered systems found it today’s facilities in order to understand how these systems work in support of their missions and to optimize outcomes in emergency situations.

We provide guidance and training to educate fire inspectors on what to look for during their on-site inspections in order to gain an in-depth understanding of system design and status to ensure everything is up to code, operational and is being properly maintained. We help first responders (police and fire) understand how to operate these engineered systems when they arrive at the site of an emergency. We provide preventative and tactical support solutions to enhance security / life safety and real-time emergency operations by leveraging specialized equipment and standard operating procedures.
