DIV 08 and 28 Success – Panel of Peers discuss best ways to successfully serve customers

As locking hardware becomes more integrated with the access control security head-end system, the need for proper installation, maintenance and configuration is becoming more critical than ever. Join us as Chris Stull, Electronic Sales Engineer at Allegion, moderates a discussion with Bret Emerson, President of Commtech Design and Ryan Benson, Senior Project Architect at Schmidt Associates. Attendees of the session will learn about key trends in the end user market that are driving the need for Division 08/28 coordination.

Points of discussion will include:

• Typical challenges bridging the gap between DIV 08 door hardware requirements and DIV 28 electronic access control needs
• Efficiencies created using an electronic design tool or service such as Overtur™ beginning with the building of door schedules, modifications/updates, punch lists and the value presented with real time project updates
• Project challenges including the need to quickly update records reflecting changes in scope, design change orders, etc. and efficiently distribute updates to impacted project participants
