SHT-04How it connects

Support is easier when records are real.

Smartech offers remote support services for video retrieval and credential management. When a system needs hands on site, the as-built drawings and programming records we handed over are what the technician works from, which is why we write them for the next person, not for the file.

Taking over from another integrator starts with an audit of what is there. The first 30 days of a takeover.

“If I need them, I want to be able to get ahold of them.”

Allen Cain, Gilbert Public Schools · Security Sales & Integration, 2022

SHT-05Questions

Asked before the first call.

Will you support a system you did not install?

Yes, after an audit. We inventory the system, document it and tell you in writing what we can support as is and what needs work first.

How fast do you respond?

Response terms are written into your service agreement, so they are something you can hold us to, not a line on a website.
