WE HIT MANAGED AV SERVICES

OUT OF THE PARK.

 

 

Bluewater offers a robust suite of audio-visual technology Managed Service offerings to keep AV systems and people operating at peak efficiency.

 

We understand that technology is a key contributor to your day-to-day operations, and we offer a wide variety of AV support options to give you the service you need while keeping operational costs in check. From preventative maintenance, on-site staffing, or system monitoring, we partner with you to provide hassle-free, cost-effective solutions that allow you to focus on your core business.

Access to technology support services when you need them most.

Bluewater’s Managed Services Team has the expertise that hundreds of our clients call on when their AV technology needs service.

Our Help Desk opens at 7:00 am ET and is ready to serve you throughout the day. Bluewater’s skilled Help Desk Specialists can quickly create and facilitate a plan to get you back on your feet should the need arise. And, when you require on-site service, our expert Service Technicians will be there.

Bluewater offers three different Service Agreement options to give you the level of service you need, at the price point that fits the budget. Bluewater will also handle any warranty claims with the manufacturer and make the RMA return process pain-free. Our goal is to provide hassle-free support to keep your AV investment running smooth. It’s what we do, and we do it well!

Prevent system downtime before it happens.

Our Enhanced and Premium Managed Service programs include 2 and 4 preventative maintenance visits per year. During these visits, our expert Service Technicians will check system operation, physically review cabling and connections, replace consumables (such as batteries, filters, and lamps) as needed, update firmware, and ensure everything within the system is exactly as it should be.

If anything out of the ordinary is found during the visit, or products have gone end of life, our Service Team will evaluate and offer recommendations to review. It’s these little things that can go a long way in ensuring continual system uptime.

Premiere support for multi-room & mission-critical environments.

For large buildings, classroom technology on campuses, or servicing mission-critical systems, our on-site staffing program is the ultimate choice for support. Bluewater places trained service technicians on-site to provide you with an immediate resource for support. Daily system checks, on-site support to ensure meetings start on time and run smoothly, and training on-demand are just a few of the key benefits.

On-site staffing makes the most sense when you have 20 or more conference rooms to support or are running mission-critical systems like those found in command and control, healthcare, or emergency response environments.

  • Fastest Response
  • On-Site Training
  • Live Meeting Support
  • Ongoing Proactive Maintenance

System training & quick start guides to keep moving.

Even the most intuitive systems require some level of training for operation. This is one of the most overlooked aspects of collaboration technology and integrated video conferencing systems. All of our Managed Service options provide access to our help desk, which provides same-day response for any questions on operation or other technical support. All options also issue quick start documentation that can be left in rooms to help users understand how to best operate the equipment. This can alleviate most issues that arise from understanding how the system works.

Our Enhanced and Premium Managed Service options provide additional coverage, by bringing on-premise training to your facilitates once or twice per year. This is the absolute best way to ensure that no time is wasted getting meetings off the ground.

Never get left in the dark again.

Almost all hardware today is network-connected. That means there’s no reason not to have instant access to real-time system status across all of your properties. Know when there is an issue before end users find it, and prevent downtime in meeting spaces forever.

In addition to providing real-time system information to allow for better proactive support, this data provides valuable insight into system usage. Find out what rooms are being booked most frequently, which aren’t being used at all, and what each room is being used for. This story helps guide future investment decisions in collaboration technology, based on how the rooms are being used.
