Technical systems coordination,
before the build.
We work alongside your team so AV, acoustics, ELV, fire, IT, automation, power and turnkey-integration questions are solved at drawing stage — not improvised on site. Design-assist for systems integration, with final design and approvals staying with the appointed consultants and authorities.
In short
TechnoGuru supports architects, consultants and project teams with early-stage systems planning, BOQ and scope coordination, AV/ELV/fire/IT/acoustics/power integration review, drawing-stage inputs and post-handover support. Final design, approvals and statutory compliance remain with appointed consultants and authorities.
When to use
From concept through schematic, BOQ, execution, commissioning, handover and AMC.
When not to use
As a replacement for licensed architects, fire, electrical, HVAC or structural consultants, or the authorities.
· Across the project
Where we coordinate,
stage by stage.
- 01
Concept
Early read on which systems a scheme should provision for, and where space, power and pathways will be needed.
- 02
Schematic design
Drawing-stage coordination of AV, ELV, fire, IT, acoustics and automation against the architectural intent.
- 03
BOQ / tender
Scope and specification coordination so systems provisions are aligned before the BOQ and tender are firmed up.
- 04
Mockup / sample
Coordination of sample rooms and mockups so finishes, fixtures and systems agree before the wider rollout.
- 05
Site execution
Sequencing and site-readiness coordination with the civil and interior contractors so the build never waits on systems.
- 06
Commissioning
Testing against a written plan with documented pass criteria, calibration and live cause-and-effect checks.
- 07
Handover
As-built drawings, configuration backups, calibration reports and an operations manual written for the people who run the building.
- 08
AMC / lifecycle
Where agreed, a documented support programme keeps the systems answerable long after handover.
· What TechnoGuru coordinates
One team across
the systems disciplines.
Each discipline links to its own page. Where a project crosses several at once, we can hold them under one accountable hand — subject to drawings, consultant review and project scope.
- AV systems
- Acoustics
- Auditorium & boardroom AV
- Stage lighting
- CCTV readiness
- Access control readiness
- Fire alarm
- Fire hydrant
- IT & networking
- Structured cabling
- Enterprise Wi-Fi
- UPS / power backup
- Energy storage (BESS)
- Building management (BMS)
- Smart automation
- Lighting & scenes
- Auditorium seating & stage furnishing
- Documentation & handover
· Before a review
What to share.
- Floor plans (GA)
- Reflected ceiling plans (RCP)
- Elevations and sections, if available
- Draft BOQ, if available
- Electrical load schedule, if available
- Room dimensions and ceiling heights
- Expected use cases per space
- Project stage and key dates
- Site photos, only where safe to share
- Decision-maker and appointed-consultant contacts
Share only drawings and information you are authorised to share, through proper channels.
· From a website form
What we will not do.
- Issue statutory certification or approvals
- Provide final engineering sign-off in place of your consultants
- Produce a final camera placement or security layout
- Produce final fire routing or device counts
- Guarantee BOQ quantities from a website form
- Replace the architect-of-record or appointed consultants
Final design, statutory review and approvals remain with the appointed consultants and the relevant authorities.

· Frequently asked
For architects and consultants.
When should an architect involve TechnoGuru?
As early as concept or schematic design. Bringing systems coordination in at drawing stage means AV, ELV, fire, IT, acoustics, automation and power provisions are aligned with the architecture before the BOQ and tender are finalised — which is far cheaper than reworking them on site.
Can TechnoGuru review drawings before BOQ?
Yes. Drawing-stage coordination is one of the most useful points to involve us. We review floor plans, ceiling plans and elevations against the systems intent and feed back on provisions, space and pathways so the BOQ reflects them.
Can TechnoGuru coordinate with interior designers?
Yes. We work alongside interior designers on interior-planning coordination within the project scope — keypad and device locations, ceiling and joinery integration, acoustics and lighting — so the systems read as architecture, not afterthoughts.
Does TechnoGuru provide statutory approvals?
No. Final design, statutory review and approvals remain with the appointed consultants and the relevant authorities. We provide technical systems coordination and design-assist that supports those approvals; we do not replace them.
What drawings are needed for a first review?
Floor plans and reflected ceiling plans are the most useful starting point, with elevations, a draft BOQ and an electrical load schedule if they exist. At concept or retrofit stage, a site survey or sketch is often enough to begin. Share only what you are authorised to share, through proper channels.
Can TechnoGuru support turnkey auditorium projects?
Yes. For projects that cross several disciplines — auditorium AV, acoustics, stage lighting, seating, fire and IT — we can deliver as an integrated team under one accountable hand, coordinating with the architect, consultants and PMC throughout.
· For architects & consultants
Bring the systems in
at drawing stage, not after.
Share floor plans, ceiling plans and a BOQ if you have one. A project lead replies with a considered first reading — typically within two working days — and the coordination steps the project would actually need.
