Operational & Maintenance
Symptom triage, ELV system maps, maintenance checks.
Once a building is operational, the questions change. The ELV map gives you an interactive cross-section across seven layers — CCTV, access control, fire, PA, IP-PBX, server room, BMS — so a facilities manager can see device locations and where each cabling backbone lands.
The maintenance health-check triages symptoms (Wi-Fi dead zones, false fire alarms, camera downtime) into the right intervention: tune-up, structured audit or full AMC.

4 tools, sized for
operational.
CCTV Storage Retention Calculator
Multi-brand, codec-aware CCTV storage retention sizing across a verified, source-cited camera-profile catalogue including Hikvision, Dahua, Axis, Hanwha, Bosch, Honeywell, CP Plus, Ubiquiti, Verkada, Meraki, Avigilon, Pelco and more. Computes storage TB, HDD count plan, recorded bandwidth and an NVR/VMS class recommendation against camera count. Pairs with the CCTV Coverage Calculator.
AMC Plan Selector
Four quiz questions about your operation. We recommend Bronze, Silver, Gold or Mission-Critical AMC tier with response targets and PM frequency.
ELV / Life-Safety Building Map
Interactive cross-section of a building. Toggle between CCTV, access control, fire, PA, IP-PBX, server room and BMS — see device locations and where each cabling backbone lands.
Maintenance Health Check
Tick the symptoms — Wi-Fi dead zones, false fire alarms, camera downtime — and we suggest the right intervention: tune-up, structured audit or full AMC.

Cross-listed from neighbouring disciplines
- Site planning
Industrial & Tea-Estate Technology Planner
Site type, zones and what's ready in — which systems to coordinate (CCTV, PA, access, networking, UPS, fire/ELV), what to prepare and a readiness view out. Advisory; no counts, layouts or pricing.
- Drawing readiness
Drawing & BOQ Readiness Checker
Check whether your drawings, schedules, BOQ/spec status, site access and project team are ready for a systems conversation. Advisory; no pricing, quantities or final scope.
- Readiness
Access Control Readiness Checker
A readiness self-check before a door-access or attendance conversation — door-survey status, credential considerations, integrations, privacy-policy and operations readiness. No door counts, layouts or reader placement; statuses only.
- Handover
System Handover Readiness Checker
Score a project's handover readiness across as-builts, test records, O&M manuals, warranties, spares, training, credential transfer and the AMC decision — and get the chase list to close the gaps. Statuses only; no credential capture.
- BMS · Readiness
BMS Readiness Checker
A readiness self-check before a BMS conversation — which plant systems to supervise, how BMS-ready the existing controls are, and whether the network, operations team and documentation are in place. Statuses only; no points counts, plant capacities or network detail.
- BMS · Readiness
BMS Energy & Fault-Response Readiness Planner
A readiness self-check for turning building-management data into detected faults, sent alerts and closed actions — metering & visibility, fault classes as monitoring categories, and the response process behind the alarm. Statuses and bands only; no plant capacities, no simulated events, no kWh, rupee or savings figures.
- Security · Readiness
Security Control Room Readiness Checklist
A methodology-level readiness self-check before a security-monitoring-room conversation — facility profile, scope and integration status, and operations readiness (SOPs, training, escalation, AMC). Statuses and bands only; never camera counts, operator positions, layouts or response tactics — the room design stays with your security consultant.
- Healthcare · Readiness
Healthcare ELV Readiness Checker
A readiness self-check for a hospital, diagnostic centre or clinic coordinating nurse call, CCTV, access, fire alarm + PA, network, patient TV and BMS for critical HVAC — with the gap list and who owes what. Statuses and bands only; no bed counts, layouts or camera specifics.
- Education · Readiness
School & Institution AV/ELV Readiness Checker
A readiness self-check for a school, college or training campus coordinating classroom AV, campus PA & bell scheduling, CCTV, access & attendance, network and fire awareness across its spaces — with the gap list and who owes what. Statuses and bands only; no student counts, layouts or camera specifics.
- Auditorium AV · Readiness
Auditorium AV Scope & Readiness Planner
A scope-level self-check for an auditorium, convention or multipurpose hall — the AV signal chain (sources, mixing & DSP, amplification & loudspeaker zones, projection, stage-lighting, assistive listening, recording, control), plus acoustics, infrastructure and operations — with the gap list and who owes what. Statuses and bands only; no seat counts, SPL targets or model choices.
- Hospitality · Readiness
Pre-Opening Hotel Technology Checklist
A pre-opening readiness self-check across a hotel's technology systems — fire alarm + PA commissioning, CCTV and access handover, guest Wi-Fi, GRMS, TV, BMS and back-of-house comms — with the close-out list for the time remaining. Banded statuses only; no room counts, layouts or pricing.
- Automation · Lighting
Lighting Scenes Interactive
Tap a scene — Welcome, Dinner, Film, Rest, Away, Goodnight — and watch every circuit, shade, AC zone and AV source shift at once across a reference 4 BHK plan. KNX + Rako + DALI.
