03 / Frequently asked

Commercial — the early conversation.

What systems can TechnoGuru support for an office or corporate workplace?

For offices, boardrooms, meeting rooms, coworking spaces and business centres, TechnoGuru can plan and integrate boardroom and meeting-room AV, video conferencing and wireless presentation, interactive displays, projectors, screens and LED walls, PA and paging, access control with attendance and biometrics, CCTV, enterprise Wi-Fi and structured cabling, firewalls / routers / switches and server-rack planning, IP-PBX and intercom, online UPS, lighting automation and smart-office controls, and reception / digital signage — coordinated so the IT and facilities teams can run it without us in the room. Room-booking and visitor-management integrations are added where required, and the estate is supported afterwards under an AMC.

What does an end-to-end office fit-out cover from your side?

An end-to-end office fit-out covers AV, BMS, structured cabling, fire and PA, IP CCTV, HRMS-integrated access, online UPS and IP-PBX — delivered turnkey or as separate scopes. Boardroom and meeting-room AV (certified Teams or Zoom Rooms), reception video wall, BMS for HVAC and lighting, structured cabling and Wi-Fi 7, fire alarm and PA voice-evacuation, IP CCTV, access control with HRMS integration, online UPS with lithium BESS, and IP-PBX or unified comms. Delivered as one turnkey contract or split as the client prefers.

How many Teams Rooms or Zoom Rooms does a typical floor need?

Plan one huddle or focus room per 20–25 staff, one large boardroom per floor and one auditorium-grade event room per building. One huddle/focus room per 20–25 staff plus one large boardroom per floor, plus one auditorium-grade event room per building. The exact mix depends on hybrid-work pattern; we run a pre-design utilisation survey for any office above 200 staff so the count is grounded in actual demand rather than a guess.

Does an office really need a lithium-ion BESS — isn't a regular UPS enough?

Above 50 kVA UPS demand a lithium-ion BESS pays back clearly versus VRLA on floor space, cycle life and lifetime cost — below 20 kVA traditional VRLA can still suit. Above 50 kVA UPS demand, yes. Lithium-ion delivers half the floor space, three to four times the cycle life, and a fraction of the maintenance versus traditional VRLA. For a building running 24/7 critical loads (servers, BMS, critical lighting), the lifetime economics favour lithium clearly. Below 20 kVA, traditional VRLA can still make sense.

Can you integrate access control with our HRMS so leavers lose access automatically?

Yes — we integrate Honeywell, HID, Matrix and Suprema access platforms with Active Directory, SAP HCM and Workday via SCIM or LDAP, so leavers lose access on schedule. We integrate Honeywell, HID, Matrix and Suprema platforms with Active Directory, SAP HCM, Workday and most HRMS platforms via standard SCIM or LDAP. Joiner-mover-leaver events route automatically: a leaver loses building access at 18:00 on their last day, not when someone remembers to deactivate the card.
