As-Built Auditing
As-Built Audit Services include creation of a new drawing layout of your facility or verifying and updating an existing drawing. Key elements of this audit include equipment footprint, power and network connectivity racking, fiber connectivity racking and facility details, such as grounding, HVAC, fire and lighting.
Rack Space Auditing
Rack space audits provide detailed elevation views of your racks and cabinets on the floor and lineup showing total used and available space. By knowing your complete rack utilization, you are better able to make informed purchase decisions and control costs.
Power Auditing
We offer a detailed breakdown of your power and facility support systems including UPS, DC, AC, Generator, HVAC and fire systems. The analysis gives you the latest load versus capacity reporting of all systems, and offers recommendations to plan and manage future growth efficiently.
Third Party Auditing
Third Party Audit Services include checking and verifying the quality of civil/construction work performed by implementation vendors at your facility. We provide detailed findings and photographs so you can quickly resolve issues and remain in compliance with national and local codes and standards.
Network Equipment Circuits Inventory & Tracing Audit Services
We develop a detailed inventory of existing copper, fiber and ethernet circuits by performing an onsite survey to locate connectivity/equipment assignments. This helps you to locate circuits with minimal effort and also provides network capacity, usage, and availability information to assist you in planning for future needs.
Grounding Audit Services
Through utilization of your internal network standards and our expertise in standard grounding practices, we provide you with a detailed report of all grounding issues existing at your facility (including supporting pictures and recommendations for improvement). Our grounding audit reports can help you avoid equipment damage and reduce network downtime.
Cell Site Audit Services
Cell site audits are designed to serve as a quality check on completed work done in remotely located cell sites. Using our standard checklist, we audit newly installed elements including antennas (azimuths, down tilts and rad center heights), coax and connectors, grounding, HVAC, towers, RF signage, batteries, alarms and site security.
