From camera list to a site that responds
Every deployment follows the same sequence, whether it is eight cameras in one building or eighty across a plant. The parts that matter most are the two nobody advertises: honest compatibility, and tuning on your own footage.
Eleven steps, in order
- 01
Site Assessment
We walk the facility with your team and map risks, coverage, blind spots, lighting and the cameras and network already in place.
- 02
Camera Compatibility
Which existing cameras can carry detection, at what resolution and frame rate, and which locations need something different.
- 03
Coverage & Zone Design
Camera positions, the zones that need rules, permitted hours, the people to enroll and where response devices belong.
- 04
Infrastructure Work
Only where it is needed: additional cameras, cabling, PoE capacity, network segmentation, power protection and mounting.
- 05
Appliance Installation
The PARVEK appliance is installed on site and every camera is brought onto it, with recording and retention configured.
- 06
AI Configuration
Zones, rules, permitted hours, enrolled people, schedules and the capabilities your facility actually needs — set on your own camera views.
- 07
Response Integration
Speakers, horns, lights and floodlights wired and linked to the right events, where your site permits them.
- 08
Tuning on Your Footage
Thresholds adjusted against what your cameras actually see, over real days and nights, rather than assumed from a datasheet.
- 09
Testing & Commissioning
Cameras, recording, AI, alerts and every configured response tested end to end, with you present, before handover.
- 10
Training & Handover
Your security and admin users trained on the console, the mobile app and what each alert means — including how to mark a false one.
- 11
Service & Support
Ongoing health checks, issue resolution, software updates and maintenance under the service plan you choose.
One appliance. NVR + AI + management.
Camera streams, recording, playback, AI events, evidence clips, alerts, reports, users and roles and camera health — centralised in one appliance inside your premises. Faces, clips and reports stay on site.
Camera count, retention and storage are specified per appliance configuration and confirmed during the assessment.
Who does what
What we need from you
- Access to the site for the assessment and the installation
- Someone who knows the facility and what actually goes wrong there
- Network access to the cameras, and a location for the appliance
- The people to enroll, if recognition or attendance is in scope
- Sign-off on the coverage and zone design before hardware is ordered
What you get from us
- A coverage design you can see before you commit
- An honest list of which cameras will and will not carry detection
- A quotation for the complete scope, not a software line item
- Every configured alert and response tested at commissioning
- Training for your security and admin users
- A support route that does not change after handover
Installed today. Supported for years.
A security system is only as good as its worst-maintained camera. Support is part of the deployment, not an afterthought sold separately once something stops working.
Commissioning
Cameras, recording, AI, alerts and every configured response tested before handover.
Issue Resolution
A camera down, a network fault, an alert that is not behaving — raised with us and worked to a fix.
System Health Checks
Camera health and appliance status are monitored; periodic checks under a service plan.
Software Updates
Improvements to detection and the console, applied to your appliance.
Camera & Network Service
Cleaning, re-aiming, re-termination and replacement as sites change over time.
Service Plans
Annual service plans scoped to the size and criticality of your deployment.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a deployment take?
Where compatible cameras and cabling are already in place, a site can be running detection quickly — the work is assessment, appliance, configuration and tuning. A build that needs new cameras, cabling and response devices is phased around your operations and scheduled at design stage.
Do you quote before or after the assessment?
After. The assessment establishes camera compatibility, what infrastructure is needed, storage and retention, and which capabilities are worth enabling. Quoting before that means guessing, and the guess is always wrong in one direction.
Can we pilot it on a few cameras first?
Yes, and it is often the sensible route on a large site: pick the area where incidents actually happen, run detection there, and judge it on your own footage before extending. It also surfaces lighting and camera-placement issues while they are cheap to fix.
Who configures the rules?
We do, with your team, during configuration and commissioning — zones marked on the actual camera views, permitted hours set to your shifts, and the people who need enrolling enrolled. You are trained to adjust them afterwards.
Can we keep our existing integrator?
Yes. Where you have an incumbent doing cabling and camera maintenance, we work alongside them — we need network access to the cameras and a home for the appliance, not ownership of your estate.
