Project planning checklist
A practical brief for evaluating a solution and agreeing a clear scope.
- Start with an operational question
- Describe what should improve: stock reconciliation, a movement checkpoint, an exit response, visual monitoring or door access. Record the current workflow and who owns it.
- Bring representative conditions
- For RFID: item materials, tag position, quantities and read zones. For cameras: lighting, coverage and recording needs. For access: doors, credentials, enrollment and alternative access.
- Define acceptance before a pilot
- Agree the test sample, expected events, missed/duplicate events, response time, exception handling and who signs off. Test edge cases and interruptions as well as the happy path.
- Identify system responsibilities
- List devices, software, interfaces, data fields and the party responsible for each. Confirm offline behavior, retries and reconciliation rather than assuming them.
- Plan handover and support
- Agree installation responsibilities, operator training, documentation, maintenance and support terms in the scope. A website inquiry is not a booking or a service-level commitment.
What drives the cost?
- Devices & coverage
- Number of read points, cameras or doors; tags, accessories, power, network and site conditions.
- Software & integration
- Licensing where applicable, interfaces, data mapping, configuration and validation.
- Implementation & operation
- Pilot work, installation, training, support, maintenance and consumables.
Request an itemized scope. Prices and delivery times depend on the confirmed configuration.
