How to Eliminate Change Orders with Absolute Tech Solutions
Change orders can be the bane of any project, especially when it comes to IT and technology infrastructure for franchise businesses. They often cause delays, increase costs, and disrupt the flow of work. For franchise owners, this can mean unexpected downtime and lost revenue. The good news? With Absolute Tech Solutions, you can significantly reduce, or even eliminate, the need for change orders altogether. Here’s how:
1. Comprehensive Planning from the Start
The root cause of many change orders is incomplete or inaccurate project planning. At Absolute Tech Solutions, we emphasize thorough planning at the outset of every project. By understanding your franchise’s specific needs—whether it’s video surveillance, alarms, structured cabling, or digital menu boards—we ensure that the entire scope of the project is accounted for from day one. This proactive approach helps avoid costly changes later on, as no detail is overlooked.
2. Experienced Project Management
Our team brings over a decade of experience in IT services, which means we’ve seen it all. This experience enables us to foresee potential issues before they arise. We know what questions to ask and what potential pitfalls to avoid, saving you from unanticipated adjustments. From access control to point-of-sale systems, our expert project managers ensure smooth execution without mid-project surprises.
3. Clear Communication and Transparency
Change orders often result from a lack of clear communication between service providers and franchise owners. We believe in keeping an open line of communication throughout the project, ensuring that you’re informed every step of the way. If there’s a potential issue, we address it immediately rather than letting it snowball into a larger problem. This transparency reduces the likelihood of sudden, unforeseen changes.
4. End-to-End Solutions Under One Roof
By consolidating all your IT and technology needs with Absolute Tech Solutions, you eliminate the complexity of coordinating multiple vendors. Each vendor can have their own timeline, priorities, and pricing structures, which often leads to conflicting needs and unexpected changes. Our all-in-one approach—handling alarms, video surveillance, structured cabling, access control, audio systems, and more—means that everything is integrated seamlessly. No more “adjustments” because one system doesn’t play well with another.
5. Advanced Technology for Scalability
Change orders often arise when a business realizes that their initial IT infrastructure can’t handle their growth. With Absolute Tech Solutions, we future-proof your technology setup. We design and install systems with scalability in mind, ensuring that your IT infrastructure can grow alongside your franchise. Whether you’re expanding locations or adding new services, our solutions are designed to adapt to your needs without the need for disruptive changes down the line.
6. Custom Solutions Tailored to Your Franchise
Franchises often face unique challenges when it comes to IT and technology integration. A one-size-fits-all solution simply doesn’t work. That’s why we take the time to create customized solutions based on your specific operational needs, so there are no surprises later. Our personalized approach reduces the risk of needing to rework systems or make costly adjustments, ensuring your technology works perfectly for your business from the start.
7. Preventative Maintenance and Regular Check-Ins
Another way to avoid change orders is through preventative maintenance. At Absolute Tech Solutions, we don’t just install your systems and walk away. We provide ongoing maintenance and regular check-ins to ensure everything is functioning optimally. By addressing small issues before they become big problems, we help you avoid major changes that can disrupt your business operations.
