How We Work

A structured delivery process built for commercial projects.

LLG follows a disciplined process from initial discovery through long-term support — designed to integrate cleanly into your project team, construction schedule, and operational lifecycle.

The Design Phase

From first conversation to construction-ready documentation.

01

Discovery

LLG begins every project with a structured discovery session — understanding the project type, ownership goals, design intent, budget parameters, and operational requirements. This conversation shapes every decision that follows and helps us identify where technology can support the design rather than complicate it.

02

Design-Assist

LLG embeds into the design process early — attending design meetings, reviewing drawings, coordinating conduit and rough-in requirements with the electrical contractor, and providing system recommendations that match the architectural intent. This phase prevents the most common and most costly project problems: systems that weren't planned for in the design.

03

Documentation

LLG produces complete system documentation — scope of work, submittals, shop drawings, system architecture diagrams, and equipment schedules — appropriate for the project phase. Clear documentation aligns the project team, supports GC coordination, and provides the basis for accurate installation.

From rough-in through a fully commissioned system.

04

Installation

LLG installs all technology systems in coordination with the GC's schedule — structured cabling, equipment mounting, device installation, and rack build. Our installation team follows documented standards and works as a disciplined trade partner alongside electrical, mechanical, and other specialty contractors.

05

Programming

LLG programs every control system, lighting system, and AV device to match the project's operational requirements — scenes, schedules, user interfaces, and automation sequences. Programming is refined in coordination with ownership and the operations team to ensure the system reflects how the space will actually be used.

06

Commissioning

LLG commissions every system before turnover — testing all devices, verifying all control functions, confirming all user interfaces, and resolving any performance issues. Commissioning is documented and signed off with the project team before the space opens to staff or guests.

The Support Phase

A service relationship that continues after turnover.

07

Training

LLG trains the operations team at commissioning — covering all user interfaces, control functions, and daily management tasks. Training is tailored to the user: front-of-house staff, managers, and property operations each receive the level of instruction that matches their role. Written documentation is provided for reference.

08

Ongoing Support

LLG provides structured service support after turnover — service calls, remote troubleshooting, seasonal system tuning, programming updates, and support for future expansions or changes. Our goal is to be the technology partner that the property can rely on throughout its operational life — not just a contractor who shows up for the build.

Why Process Matters

Most technology problems are planning problems.

The majority of technology failures in commercial projects are the result of late coordination, unclear scope, and systems that weren't designed together. LLG's process is built to prevent these problems from the start.

01

Early coordination prevents expensive problems

Conduit that wasn't planned, walls that are already closed, AV equipment that doesn't fit the rack — these are planning failures. LLG joins projects early enough to prevent them.

02

Documentation protects everyone on the project

Clear submittals, shop drawings, and as-built documentation protect the owner, the GC, and LLG — and make future service, expansion, and troubleshooting straightforward.

03

Commissioning is not the same as installation

Systems that are installed but not properly programmed, tested, and commissioned fail users. LLG treats commissioning as a distinct phase with its own documentation and sign-off.

04

Support after turnover protects the investment

Technology systems require attention after occupancy — tuning, updates, and support as the operation evolves. LLG is designed to be the partner that provides this reliably over time.
