CCTV Camera Installation, Meeting The Customers Needs
Customer satisfaction depends solely on their needs being met. These needs are often budgetary but a CCTV camera installation that doesn’t cover the perceived areas of need is as bad or worse than no CCTV camera coverage at all. The cameras, types of cameras, lenses, multiplexers and recorders all play a factor in the successful installation of a CCTV camera system.
The only way for the CCTV camera provider to supply solutions to the clients’ needs is a series of meetings with the client. These meetings range from the initial meeting where the client expresses their needs for CCTV coverage to a final meeting where both parties sign a contract. This final contract will define what coverage is being provided to the client. During this series of meetings, the provider can provide information about capabilities of CCTV systems to the client that the client may have been unaware of. The main thing that the CCTV provider must do is insure that the system that they are proposing meets the client needs.
The client must in the meetings accurately represent their needs to the provider. The resolution of those needs is the responsibility of the CCTV camera installation provider. The provider will know of optional equipment that will meet the needs of the client. These options should be provided to the client in subsequent meeting to allow the client the ability to make an informed decision as to exactly what equipment will meet his needs in the most economical manner. Some of these options may require additional budget meetings by the client and their staff or management. The CCTV provider should provide for these budgetary considerations with options for alternate equipment.
Budgetary considerations can be accomplished by installing a less expensive camera package in some locations and more expensive equipment in others. The substitution of black and white cameras for color cameras often saves hundreds of dollars that can be utilized in other equipment. The provider can provide the client a drawing showing camera locations and areas of coverage on the facility. This drawing will allow the client to visualize the coverage and have no doubts as to the areas on the facility that will be covered by the CCTV camera system. This drawing can be provided to the client for presentation to management for final approval.
Meetings between the client and the provider provide open lines of communication. The open lines of communication give the provider the information necessary to solve the problems of the client. These open lines of communication also provide the client the knowledge that their needs are to be met by the provider. When the project is complete, the finished project should accurately represent what equipment and positions were on the drawing provided to the client. This insures that the provider meets the needs of the client.
