What happens during a free LMI site survey

What our engineers check on a free site survey, and why we size every network, CCTV system and server room to what is actually there.

Every LMI engagement starts with a site survey, and it is free. We do it because a network, CCTV system or server room sized from a catalog is either too small for how your people work, or more than you need. A survey lets us size the solution to what is actually there.

What we look at

  1. Your people and devices. How many users and devices connect at the same time, and where they are at peak hours. Wi-Fi plans are checked against your real concurrent device count.
  2. The building. Floor plans, walls, ceilings, cable routes, and where racks and power can safely go.
  3. What you already have. Existing equipment, internet lines and cabling. Many sites have no network diagram at all; we start one.
  4. Security and recovery. Who needs access to what, which systems cannot go down, and how data is backed up today.
  5. Power. For solar, your roof and your actual electricity load; for everything else, whether your equipment is protected from outages.

What you get afterwards

A plan sized to your site, usually within one business day. For OneWifi and OneShield, the monthly price comes from our published plans; one-time site works are quoted from what the survey found. OnePower, OneWatch and OneCore are engineered and priced from the survey itself.

How to prepare

  • A floor plan or a quick sketch of the areas to cover
  • Your current internet bills or provider details
  • A list of the systems your business cannot run without
  • Someone who knows where the existing cables and equipment are

There is no obligation. If a smaller solution is enough, we will say so.
