Technology
Through personalized design, AEI’s Technology Team enhances client communications and facility performance, from voice and data, audiovisual, and security technologies, to systems supporting Intelligent Building monitoring, metering, and management. Our technology solutions foster growth and accommodate change for technically complex facilities with a multitude of data-driven needs, providing turnkey implementation plans for full functionality from day one.
Technology systems are pervasive in modern buildings, enabling communication between systems and between people. The integration of audio and video presentation systems into a built environment requires clear understanding of user expectations and needs. Our audiovisual design staff initially work to understand each clients’ unique communication goals, then leverages the appropriate audiovisual capacities to realize them.
In specific fields, technologies have multiplied to support a productive, informed, and empowered workforce. In addition to serving the science and technology, energy and utilities, mission critical, higher education, sports and athletic centers, and federal government markets, we have developed a specialized focus in the healthcare sector. With a designated Healthcare Information Technologies Group, we provide comprehensive consulting, planning, design, and leadership to enrich modern environments created for patients and healing while enabling healthcare providers and professionals to deliver unique models of care.
