Proposals + Drawings

Our experienced designers work with you to determine the scope and system capabilities required and then specify all of the equipment, materials and labor necessary to complete the project.

We reduce your time and effort to create compelling, complete, and accurate Proposals and/or Construction Drawings for a professional presentation so you can focus on your business growth.

If a picture is worth a 1000 words

If they say a picture is worth a 1000 words then our System Documentation is worth thousands of dollars. While our Design Services support the sales process with proposals and conceptual renderings, our Documentation Services support the installation process with detailed construction drawings. Once the proposal is accepted, the shift is made to our highly skilled engineering team.

Systems Design

Selective Solutions created specifically for Smart System Integrators.

Rack Elevation

Build it right the first time. We create the elevation on paper so technicians aren't left guessing on equipment location & spacing.

Rough In Plan

Stop flipping pages. In a single view, technicians have all the info they need including device placement, cable type & compliment, head-end & wire ID.

Lighting Control

Partner with our specialists & lighting control design can become a new profit category.

Schematics

Get technicians & programmers on the same page. This diagram allows them to work in parallel so the system works correctly the first time.

Rack Elevation

Our Rack Elevation provides the identification and placement of all head-end equipment within the specified equipment rack(s). Both the front and side elevations are included with dimensions.

Our Deliverable is created in MS Visio and submitted to you as a PDF.

Lighting Control

Are you still falling back on highlighters and sticky dots to mark up your plans?We can elevate your game and take you from "dots" to professional "docs"...easily and quickly. Our lighting design team offers a solution to your presentation problem.

Done right (and we explain how) there is no need to incur the ongoing overhead(aches) of staff, standards development, software and training.

Rather, by partnering with BlueDog Group, the lighting control design can become a new profit category unto itself.

Rough In Plan

Our Rough In Prewire plan provides the identification and placement of all rough-in phase devices and assignment of rough-in cabling to each of the various device locations, including unique wire ID numbers and head-end assignments.

Our Deliverable is created in MS Visio using standard D-Tools component ID format and submitted to you as a PDF.

Schematics

This is our Equipment Connection (Schematic) Drawing. It provides documentation of all equipment connections (inputs/outputs) related to the finish phase equipment allowing the information to be communicated to installation technicians & programmers easily and visually. Our Deliverable is created in MS Visio using standard D-Tools component ID format and submitted to you as PDF.

Systems to be included are as follows:

Theater
Surround Sound
Local System(s)
Audio Distribution & Switching
Video Distribution & Switching
Automation & Control
Data Distribution
Rack Power (120VAC) Distributions

You guessed it. We can generate your proposals too!

Proposal

Generation

One of BlueDog's most important services is the creation of accurate and highly detailed project specifications, or proposals. Our experienced designers will work with you to determine the scope and system capabilities required and then specify all of the equipment, materials and labor necessary to complete the project.

Every proposal is written utilizing D-Tools system design software which has been extensively customized, resulting in proposals that are unsurpassed in accuracy and attention to detail.

We leverage the size and accuracy of the BlueDog Master Catalog containing fields for client information such as make, model, list price and description, as well as management information such as cost, category & type, SKU#, installation phase and time, dimensions and input/output connections.

In addition to this individual product information, our proposals also include budgets for the “soft” or hidden time required for successful installation such as Project Management, Administration and Design. All of this information can be easily accessed through the use of custom reports.

BlueDog will create a set of these reports just for you, providing all the tools necessary for sales, operations and management.
