Frequently Asked Questions

What brands of security cameras does Harris Technology Services install?

Harris Technology Services is a Verkada Diamond Plus partner and an authorized installer for Avigilon and Lumana camera systems. Verkada offers cloud-managed cameras with built-in AI analytics, onboard storage, and the Verkada Command platform for centralized management. Avigilon provides high-resolution cameras with advanced video analytics for large-scale commercial and industrial environments. Lumana specializes in AI-powered cloud video surveillance with intelligent alerting and search capabilities. We help organizations select the right camera platform based on their facility type, security requirements, budget, and integration needs.

What access control systems do you install and support?

We install and support Brivo and Verkada access control systems. Brivo is a cloud-based platform offering mobile credentials, visitor management, and integration with Eagle Eye Networks video surveillance. Verkada access control integrates seamlessly with Verkada cameras for a unified security dashboard. Both platforms support mobile badge access, remote door management, and multi-site administration from a single cloud dashboard. We also perform legacy access control upgrades, migrating organizations from outdated card reader and key fob systems to modern cloud-managed solutions with mobile credentials.

What areas does Harris Technology Services serve?

Harris Technology Services is headquartered in West Chester, Pennsylvania and provides security camera installation, access control, and network infrastructure services throughout Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Delaware. Our primary service area includes Philadelphia and southeastern Pennsylvania, all of New Jersey from North Jersey to the Shore, and statewide Delaware including Wilmington and Dover. We also manage nationwide deployments for enterprise organizations with locations across the United States, serving as a single point of contact for multi-site security and IT rollouts.

Do you offer managed IT services and network infrastructure?

Yes. Harris Technology Services deploys and manages Cisco Meraki cloud-managed networking solutions including wireless access points, switches, security appliances, and SD-WAN. We provide structured cabling and low-voltage wiring, firewall configuration, VLAN segmentation, and ongoing managed IT services with proactive monitoring and remote remediation. Our managed IT offering is designed for organizations that need enterprise-grade network reliability without dedicated on-site IT staff.

What is SLED procurement and do you support government contracts?

SLED stands for State, Local, and Education. Harris Technology Services sits on COSTARS, PEPPM, and Omnia cooperative purchasing contracts, which allows government agencies, school districts, municipalities, and public universities to procure security cameras, access control systems, and network infrastructure through pre-negotiated, competitively bid agreements. This streamlines the purchasing process, eliminates the need for individual RFPs, and ensures compliance with public procurement requirements. If your organization is a government entity, K-12 school district, or public university in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, or Delaware, we can help you leverage these contracts for faster, compliant procurement.

Can you handle multi-site nationwide deployments?

Absolutely. Harris Technology Services manages nationwide security and IT deployments for enterprise organizations with locations across the United States. We assign a dedicated project manager who coordinates site surveys, equipment procurement, installation scheduling, and commissioning at every location. Our cloud-managed platforms from Verkada, Cisco Meraki, Brivo, and Avigilon are purpose-built for distributed organizations, providing centralized management and visibility across all sites from a single dashboard. Whether you need security cameras at 50 retail locations, access control at 100 office buildings, or network upgrades across 200 sites, HTS delivers consistent, enterprise-grade results with a single point of accountability.

What does the security camera installation process look like?

Our installation process begins with a comprehensive site survey where we assess your facility layout, identify optimal camera placement, evaluate existing cabling infrastructure, and review any specific security concerns. We then provide a detailed proposal including camera counts, locations, platform recommendations, and pricing. Once approved, our certified technicians handle all structured cabling, camera mounting, network configuration, and cloud platform setup. We commission every camera on-site, verify video quality and coverage angles, configure AI analytics and alerting rules, and provide training for your team on the management dashboard. Post-installation, we offer ongoing maintenance plans, firmware updates, and 24/7 support.
