Living, working, and learning all in the same space has brought new challenges to families. E-Learning or hybrid schooling has not helped.

School IT teams are being flooded with support requests from families struggling with new or different learning technology.

Mechdyne partners with schools and their IT departments to provide supplemental Level 1 service desk support so that technology doesn't get in the way of learning.

Technology investments into collaboration spaces only return on the investment made if users can actually use the technology. If non-technical users are unable to use the interface within a room, they won't use the space to its full extent.

Technology changes quickly. 2020 is causing change to accelerate even faster.

Our AV Services team recently had to go through a software change within the campus of a large client. The client switched from Skype to Zoom, while this does not seem like a big change, this client has over 1,500 meeting rooms just on their campus. Our technicians had to learn how to set up the rooms using the new technology quickly so that the client's end users can stay productive and connected to their teammates.

We get asked what we have going on in our Tech Center a lot. Here is a look at our most recent World First!

What happens when technology fails AND poses a safety threat to those around you? One of our clients had a projector fall out of the ceiling shortly after a meeting had concluded. (Mechdyne did not install the projector, we currently provide support and maintenance to the facility where the incident occurred.)

Had the meeting still been going on, the falling projector would have certainly caused injuries.

When major incidents like this occur, it is important to have relationships and partnerships that can be tapped to assist. Utilizing our relationships across the industry, Mechdyne worked with the projector lift manufacturer to devise new procedures of securing the rest of the projectors across the campus as well as fixing the broken projector and lift.
