Smart Home Technology In A Commercial Setting

With many Kiwis currently experiencing the financial squeeze, business owners and professional service providers need to do more to stay ahead and keep clients and customers engaged. Enhancing operational efficiency, improving overall workplace functionality, and optimising the client experience are more important than ever. But how can these be achieved when budgets may already be strained? The answers may be right in front of you… at home.

Smart home technologies don't just make domestic life more comfortable and efficient; many can also be applied in a commercial setting. EAV, the smart technology experts, has a few ideas you can borrow from your home to boost your business. 

Smart Tailored Solutions

At EAV, we understand that every industry has specific needs, and within these industries, each business' needs are unique. That's why we specialise in crafting custom smart solutions tailored to meet the requirements of our clients. From bars and restaurants to retail spaces to professional offices, we collaborate closely and conduct thorough assessments of each business's challenges and goals to develop solutions that suit. 

Whether it's implementing automation features to boost productivity or creating immersive audio-visual environments to impress clients or entertain customers, we're dedicated to delivering tailored smart solutions.

Smart Home Tech to Work Smarter

We may have to spend a big part of our lives at work, but why not integrate some of the luxuries of home life into your work day?

You love listening to your favourite music throughout your home. Thanks to EAV's wireless integration, your workplace can offer a similar soundscape, with individual zones that can be controlled locally or remotely to change the source, the music, or the volume. Imagine different music playing at suitable volume levels throughout your space.

Watching movies in a home theatre with a high-definition screen, a blockbuster sound system, and cinematic lighting is thrilling. A full-scale audiovisual system upgrade can bring that same impact to your boardroom.

Think of the convenience of adjusting the lighting and heating at home from anywhere at any time. Talk to EAV about setting up a Control 4 system at your workplace, and enjoy the convenience and peace of mind of controlling heating, lighting, appliances and more from wherever you happen to be.

Similarly, knowing your premises are safe and secure is a great feeling. EAV can get security technology working for you, so when you're not at work, you don't have to worry about it.

If your work premises need intelligent lighting to showcase the space or smart wiring to run your tech or upgraded office cabling, EAV can sort you out with a well-designed and competently installed electrical network.

Minimal Disruption

Integrating smart home technology into a commercial setting sounds ideal.  

Once it's all completed!  

If the thought of major workplace upheavals during installation is off-putting, know that EAV prioritises minimising disruption during installations. By carefully planning and executing each installation with precision, your business can continue to run smoothly. Staff can continue their work without interruptions, while clients visiting the premises experience minimal inconvenience. 

Enhanced Efficiency

Smart home technology in a commercial setting can greatly improve daily operations by streamlining various aspects of the workplace, from automated lighting and climate control systems that adjust to the environment's needs to integrated communication solutions that facilitate collaboration.

With smart technology expertly integrated into the workplace, tasks and workflows are streamlined, and employees can focus more on their core responsibilities, leading to a more productive and efficient work environment.

Client Experience

Integrating smart technology in a commercial environment doesn't just improve how things run internally - it can make a big difference in how clients perceive and experience your business. Whether it's captivating interactive presentations or creating office environments, showrooms, or hospitality spaces that feel intuitive and welcoming, smart solutions help you leave a lasting impression on clients and foster positive interactions. By integrating smart technology into your workspace, EAV can enhance your client experience, setting you apart from the competition and solidifying important client relationships.

Scalability and Future-Proofing
