Our approach

How we delivered it.

Infrastructure from the ground up

Planned and installed cabling, connectivity, servers, security and user access controls across all seven layers of the network.

Vendor & team coordination

Worked with vendors, project managers, installers and budget auditors so every phase met technical and financial goals.

Device & software rollout

Deployed age-appropriate devices and educational software for students and faculty.

STEM enablement

Put STEM programs and tools in place to build technology, math and science skills.

Security & remote learning

Set up real-time vulnerability monitoring and regular updates, and built remote learning so instruction continued during COVID-19.

The results

What changed.

  • Complete digital access. Every student, from preschool through high school, has a device and consistent access to learning technology.
  • STEM in the curriculum. STEM-enriched learning that builds digital literacy early.
  • Secure environment. Continuous monitoring and vulnerability management protect student data and privacy.
  • Under budget, ready for anything. Each milestone came in under budget, and the move to remote learning was smooth.

Project led by Daniel Miret.
