Pivot3 Unveils A&E Program to Streamline Design and Deployment of IoT and Security Solutions

New initiative to provide services and support for architecture and engineering firms

  • Nov 13, 2018

Pivot3, a leading provider of security, Internet of Things (IoT) and hybrid cloud infrastructure solutions, today announced the introduction of the Pivot3 Architect and Engineer (A&E) Program. This initiative will provide architects, engineers and consultants with the resources and support needed to make intelligent decisions when specifying infrastructure platforms at the core of enterprise-class IoT, video surveillance and security solutions for their clients. 

The Pivot3 A&E Program is intended to help specifiers and their clients address the complexities of planning, designing, deploying and managing compute and storage infrastructure for today’s sophisticated security applications including video surveillance, analytics, access control, building management and all other integrated systems. A&E firms will gain access to a wide variety of resources that can be used to facilitate projects based on Pivot3's high-performance, ultra-dense, highly resilient solutions that reduce risk, eliminate downtime and data loss, and simplify scale and management. With Pivot3, A&E firms can specify one common infrastructure to consolidate multiple applications and solutions — all manageable through a single pane of glass. 

“Pivot3’s A&E program seeks to provide the advanced tools and enhanced support necessary to specify infrastructure solutions that serve as the backbone of intelligent environments,” said Ray Bernard, president and principal consultant, Ray Bernard Consulting Services. “Pivot3 understands the specific needs of both the security and IT markets, as well as the design and deployment challenges in each domain. The company has the in-depth deployment experience needed in both to effectively support system designers and specifiers in all stages of design and deployment work. The team also understands the client perspectives and issues, and the IT-physical security collaboration dynamics. This new program demonstrates Pivot3’s commitment to helping system designers access the expertise and tools needed to design enterprise-class, IT-proven solutions.”

Pivot3 A&E Program members will have access to: 

  • Document development and review assistance with specifications, proposals, and commissioning and acceptance plans.
  • A&E resources including CSI MasterFormat 2018 specification documents, 3D BIM Modules for AutoDesk Revit, MS Visio stencils and templates, and CAD drawings.
  • Solution development and design support including review of system architecture, sizing and workload/throughput calculations, and application validation.
  • Dedicated A&E support contact and local support from Pivot3’s Solution Architects and Regional Sales Directors.
  • Design guides, best practices and white papers.
  • Training, webinars and newsletters.

“The availability of dedicated Pivot3 contacts and resources will help the A&E community consider, design and ultimately, deliver infrastructure solutions that ensure the performance resiliency, and scalability that their customers’ mission-critical environments demand,” said Mike Maddox, director of A&E programs, Pivot3. “The Pivot3 A&E Program will provide the tools, insight and support necessary to achieve the successful design of enterprise-grade, IT-ready infrastructure solutions for a variety of applications and markets.”

    Ask most companies about their future technology plans and the answers will most likely include AI. Then ask how they plan to deploy it, and that is where the responses may start to vary. Every company has unique surveillance requirements that are based on market focus, scale, scope, risk tolerance, geographic area and, of course, budget. Those factors all play a role in deciding how to configure a surveillance system, and how to effectively implement technologies like AI. Read Now

  • The Stage is Set

    The security industry spans the entire globe, with manufacturers, developers and suppliers on every continent (well, almost—sorry, Antarctica). That means when regulations pop up in one area, they often have a ripple effect that impacts the entire supply chain. Recent data privacy regulations like GDPR in Europe and CPRA in California made waves when they first went into effect, forcing businesses to change the way they approach data collection and storage to continue operating in those markets. Even highly specific regulations like the U.S.’s National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) can have international reverberations – and this growing volume of legislation has continued to affect global supply chains in a variety of different ways.
