Home Automation Risk Management... Part 2
Unless you’re talking about production-homes, condos or apartments, all systems are custom, thus really should be planned out. You wouldn’t build your home without a plan, so why would you consider this be acceptable practice when installing all your technology?
You want to make certain that whoever is designing/specifying and/or installing the system is proving detailed schematic design which outlines wiring types, requirements for proper installation and provide detailed functional specifications which clearly set expectations (for example, when you walk into a room and press the top button on the lighting keypad it’s going to turn on all the lights in the room and turn on your favorite music).
Having this documentation ensures everyone is on the same page and those who should be, are held accountable for the specification and deliverables.
