IT Infrastructure

The IT Infrastructure is the foundation, comprised of various physical, software and networking components that IT services, networks and capabilities are built on. It is the physical framework that serves as the backbone of a business, essentially supporting operations for the entire enterprise. Key areas of Engineering PLUS’ IT Infrastructure expertise include:

• Network Infrastructure: Responsible for transporting communications between network users, components, and devices, network infrastructures allow network users to access and exchange data and information accurately, efficiently, safely, and securely.

• Wireless (Wi-Fi) Network Infrastructure: A networking framework which routes devices through an access point (AP) which allows them to communicate wirelessly with each other and/or with devices on other networks.

• Distributed Antenna System (DAS): A Distributed Antenna System uses a network of spatially separated antenna nodes, connected to a common source to provide and/or expand network connectivity.

• Emergency Radio Responder Communications Systems (ERRCS): A network infrastructure that works by re-transmitting essential emergency responder radio signals into a building or campus to strengthen the connection or signal allowing emergency responders to maintain constant communication.

• Public Safety DAS: This system uses a directional antenna, typically mounted on the roof of a building to receive the ERRCS donor signal, then it disperses the signal via indoor omni-directional antennas to ensure constant access to ERRCS communication signals.

Audio Visual

The audio-visual experts at Engineering PLUS can provide a wide range of budget-friendly, audio-visual solutions for your business. Some key advantages to deploying audio-visual technology solutions include (but are not limited to):

• Easier Remote Collaboration: Having advanced audio-visual technology capabilities can make communicating internally and externally easier.

• Improved User Experience: Enhanced audio-visual communication elements can lead to a better user experience.

The team of AV experts at Engineering PLUS have extensive experience designing an array of audio-visual technology solutions customized to meet you current business needs and that adapt easily to support your needs in the future.

Physical Security

Engineering PLUS can design a physical security system that is flexible and easy to use, while protecting your company’s information and assets from physical security breaches, such as unauthorized access, theft, or destruction.

Most physical security systems use multiple layers of protection. These layers work in unison to prevent physical security breaches and each layer serves a specific purpose. The different layers are designed to:

• Deter Potential Intrusions: Convey a message that the business or entity has a strong defense system in place. Visual deterrence methods are the most common.

• Detect Potential Intrusions: If an intruder is not deterred by visual deterrence methods and attempts to gain physical access, detection systems can alert you to the breach.

• Respond to Possible Security Breaches: The final layer of a physical security system is the response layer which may include event communication triggers and intrusion response plans.

Our security experts at Engineering PLUS will work with you to identify potential physical security risks and design the ideal physical security system to protect your business.

Data Center

Engineering PLUS can help assess your data center needs, design a plan to improve reliability and efficiency or optimize operations. Our data center experts have experience working with all four of the main types of data centers:

We are also experts at performing data center assessments. Some of the most common types of assessments include:

• Health Check Assessments: These are routine checks to ensure everything is operating properly.

• Vulnerability Assessments: A more in-depth evaluation, this type of assessment looks for potential vulnerabilities.

• Growth and Optimization Assessments: An assessment that primarily focuses on finding areas of opportunity.

Engineering PLUS offers a variety of data center services and solutions. We can help you assess different types of data center options, perform assessments, optimize your data center operations, and even design a data center to best suit your needs.

Smart Building Solutions

Engineering PLUS offers smart building solutions that use connected and responsive technology to improve building management by optimizing building operations, controls, and other systems. Some of our most popular smart building solutions include:

• Integrated Building Management Systems: This type of system integrates multiple, individual sub-systems into one single comprehensive building management system under one unified platform.

• Converged Networks: This type of network leverages fiber optic connectivity technologies to deliver a better performance than traditional networks can.

• Location-Based Services: These types of services can reduce energy consumption, better optimize use of space, and help perform important functions.

Engineering PLUS offers building integration and management services to improve building efficiency, reduce consumption and energy costs, plus improve building management capabilities which can lead to other financial benefits too.

Green Energy Technology Solutions

Engineering PLUS helps companies incorporate renewable energy initiatives into their overall business plans. Our team of experts works with companies on green energy initiatives, such as:

• System Audits and EVC Feasibility Studies: Planning an EVC station install? Information is key to the success of the project. Some services offered by Engineering PLUS to inform the plan may include performing:
  • An Existing Electrical System Audit
  • EVC Feasibility Studies
  • Large Scale EVC Electrical Assessment
  • Deployment MDU/Condo Strategies

• Solar Photovoltaic Design and Project Management Services: Solar photovoltaic (PV) energy can be used to convert sunlight into electricity. Building it into smart buildings and EVC station design plans can offset operational costs, such as electricity usage fees.

• Incorporating Electric Vehicle Charging Stations: As electric vehicle usage continues to grow exponentially, electric vehicle charging stations will become a necessity for recruiting top talent. Engineering PLUS offers electric vehicle charging stations design, project management, and deployment services.

• Power Distribution and Lithium-Ion Battery Storage Solutions: Combining solar photovoltaic energy technology with power distribution and storage systems allows companies to store solar energy for use later to better optimize renewable energy.

Engineering PLUS offers custom solutions and will work with you to develop plans for incorporating green energy into your next initiative.
