With digital transformation in all areas of activity, low-voltage installations and systems have taken on an essential role in a facility, ensuring comfort, security, and life safety, uninterrupted operation, and energy efficiency of the core activity, as well as communication with the outside world.
In large buildings and facilities, low-voltage installations and systems function integrated with each other and are connected with other types of building installations, forming the "intelligence" of the infrastructures: Fire Protection, Security, Access and Parking, Electrical Installations and Intelligent Lighting, HVAC, BMS Automation, IT Infrastructure and Communications, Cybersecurity.
The increasing complexity of technologies and the projects in which they are used has naturally led to the emergence in the market of contractors specializing in low-voltage systems – companies specialized in contracting, designing, installing, integrating, and maintaining all low-voltage systems.
An experienced low-voltage contractor with expertise gained from various complex projects can ensure the success of a large-scale project within its area of competence. By hiring such a contractor, you can simultaneously benefit from the following advantages:
Customized Technical Solutions
Given the strict specialization of the company, a low-voltage contractor has access to the most important manufacturers in the industry and is up to date with the latest and most advanced technologies in the field.
Without the constraint of working with a particular technology or imposed manufacturer, the low-voltage contractor can design and deliver the most suitable solutions in terms of performance, quality, and budget, in line with the needs and demands of its clients.
Project Financing
A solid low-voltage contractor has the ability to finance its operations and ensure positive cash flow throughout the duration of a large-scale contract, thanks to good internal planning, high liquidity, credit lines, and bank guarantees.
Adequate Logistics
A well-organized logistics base is absolutely necessary to successfully support large projects – modern work equipment, high-performance tools and machinery, measurement, control, and certification devices.
Human Resources
An experienced, well-organized, and efficiently sized team with multidisciplinary internal expertise is essential for providing high-quality technical services at competitive market prices.
Performance Guarantees
When guarantees are requested for works over periods of 3, 5, or even 10 years, only a solid, stable company with a long-term vision of business continuity can truly support all contractual clauses and performance guarantees.
Uninterrupted Operation
Installations and systems benefit from a warranty if properly maintained during use, including during the warranty period of the equipment provided by the manufacturers. Companies with specialized departments for interventions and maintenance operations are needed, with dedicated resources to promptly respond to beneficiary requests, especially when we are talking about systems that ensure comfort, security, and life safety, whose malfunction can interrupt core activities.
System Scalability
Today, low-voltage systems are based on scalable hardware and software platforms that can be expanded over time with reduced operational costs as the activity they serve develops. A low-voltage contractor with a long-term vision in terms of internal preparation and multidisciplinary competencies can ensure this continuous evolution. Thus, end-users will fully benefit from the installed systems and will have reduced costs for operation, maintenance, and subsequent updates.
A Single Provider for All Installations
A low-voltage contractor provides the full range of services with internal resources for turnkey projects: design, execution, system integration, maintenance, and technical support. This contributes to good site organization, simplified and efficient communication throughout the duration of the contract, between the final beneficiary, the low-voltage contractor, and the general contractor.
Reduced Execution Costs
At first glance, working with a low-voltage contractor may seem costly compared to choosing specialized installers. But for large-scale investments where all the above aspects need to be considered, this is the most economical and suitable way to successfully complete projects. A low-voltage contractor optimizes on-site resources. It has good bargaining power for the purchase of equipment and materials, which will be reflected in the competitiveness of its offers. For the beneficiary and/or general contractor, there is a single point of contact for all systems, from the design phase and solution selection, allowing quick decisions on site and timely completion of execution.
FAQs
In large-scale projects, total execution costs are lower for a low-voltage contractor due to its negotiation power in purchasing materials and equipment, unified site organization, and optimized and efficient operations. System and installation integration is done smoothly and without additional costs, based on previously gained experience and already verified work procedures.
After the works are completed, a team dedicated to maintenance operations will ensure the maintenance of installations and their uninterrupted operation.
