Systems integration solutions are becoming a vital component of every commercial, healthcare, education, hospitality, and manufacturing facility. Buildings that incorporate state-of-the-art technology have been proven to help attract and retain employees, improve learning and communication, and enable informed decision-making through better data and analytics.
No matter what types of datacomm, low-voltage, or technology solutions your system integration projects require, get Van Meter involved to get what you need. Whether it’s your first system integration project, or you’ve been completing technology integration jobs for years, we can bring more value to your work by introducing you to the latest technology, showing you new ways to implement technology, explaining how system integration leads to time and cost savings, and helping you expand and improve your offerings as technology changes.
The technology solutions you install can all work together to create a building intelligence network: Take control of lighting, HVAC, alarms, security, and other building systems to shrink operating expenses, reduce manual labor, eliminate the possibility of human error, improve business continuity, and enhance communication. The majority of today’s technology systems run on the IT network (or will in the future); we can walk you through how to make the most of yours.

Your system integration projects are nothing without the right cabling infrastructure to get the right data to the right places. There are several structured cabling options available in the systems integration industry; we’ll use our years of technology and systems integration experience to help you determine what you need to enable system performance and futureproof your infrastructure so additional technology can be added to it in the future.
We’ll help you find technology solutions that control who enters and exits a building, monitor activities in a particular area, or communicate messages during a disaster situation – and we’ll do it to match any budget, timeline, or security need. We can also help you understand how security and access control systems can be integrated with other building systems, such as lighting and HVAC, for improved automation, energy efficiency, and tracking.
Make sure you’ve got the right tools for your systems integration projects, as well as the appropriate testing equipment to assess the systems you’re working with. Contact us to find out more about the tools and test equipment that can improve system integration projects.

Do you know which technologies manufacturers are investing in right now to gain a competitive edge? Autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) and Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) are one of the top investment areas for manufacturers according to Rockwell Automation’s 9th Annual State of Smart Manufacturing Report. Do you know why manufacturers are investing in autonomous mobile robots and whether you could benefit from implementing AMRs? To find out, see if you recognize these signs of when you should consider investing in autonomous mobile robots.
If you find a great deal on the Internet, and it seems too good to be true, it probably is, right? When you’re in a crunch and the parts you need to complete your project are not available, it can be tempting to look for alternative sources to get products you need. This often leads to products being purchased on the “gray market”—without you even realizing it.
