When organizations invest in new technology, the devices themselves are only part of the equation. The real success of any technology rollout depends on how well those devices are prepared, configured, and deployed.
At Pierson, our Configuration & Deployment team ensures that every device arrives ready to perform, fully secured, and aligned with your organization's policies.
From the moment devices arrive at our facility to the moment they reach their final destination, our process is designed to eliminate surprises, reduce deployment stress, and keep your project on schedule.
Here’s how we do it...
Dedicated Project Management & Clear Communication
Every deployment project at Pierson begins with a dedicated project manager who serves as your primary point of contact.
This ensures:
Rapid response to questions
Clear communication throughout the project
Coordinated scheduling and logistics
Full visibility into deployment progress
Our clients never have to wonder where their project stands — we keep you informed every step of the way.
Secure Device Intake & Inventory Accountability
When devices arrive at our facility, they immediately enter our inventory tracking and accountability system.
Each shipment is carefully logged and verified to ensure:
Product quantities match purchase orders
Devices are tracked from receipt to deployment
Inventory is properly allocated to your project
This level of control protects your investment and ensures nothing falls through the cracks.
Early DOA Testing & Issue Identification
Few things derail a deployment faster than discovering defective devices after they’ve already reached the end user.
Our team performs Dead-On-Arrival (DOA) evaluations during the configuration process to identify potential issues before deployment begins.
If problems are detected, we report them immediately and work with manufacturers or suppliers to resolve them — preventing delays and minimizing disruption.
Site-Specific Deployment Planning
No two organizations deploy devices exactly the same way.
That’s why Pierson builds custom deployment allocations tailored to each customer’s environment. Devices can be prepared and packaged by:
School building
Department
Location
User group
This ensures that when devices arrive, they go exactly where they belong — simplifying rollout for your internal teams.
Operating System Preparation
Before devices leave our configuration facility, we ensure they are running the latest stable operating system version, or the specific version requested by the customer.
This step ensures devices are:
Secure
Compatible with your environment
Ready for immediate use
Enterprise Enrollment & Policy Configuration
Pierson prepares devices for immediate integration into your environment through enterprise enrollment and policy application.
This includes:
Device enrollment into your enterprise management system
Network policy configuration
Security permissions
Administrative controls
When devices arrive, they are already aligned with your organization’s policies
Advanced Configuration Options
Many organizations require additional configuration beyond standard enrollment.
Pierson offers a range of advanced configuration services, including:
Wi-Fi network pre-configuration
Organizational Unit (OU) placement
Device identification within your Google Admin Console
Custom policy application
These additional steps allow devices to connect and function immediately upon first boot
Physical Customization &
Asset Preparation
To support long-term device management, Pierson offers physical customization services including:
Laser etching
Asset tagging
Inventory labeling
Charging cart wiring and population
These steps help organizations maintain clear device ownership, security, and inventory control.
Green Packing & Deployment Efficiency
Our deployment teams use efficient, environmentally conscious packing methods that reduce waste while protecting equipment during transit.
This approach improves shipping efficiency while aligning with many customers’ sustainability initiatives.
Secure Final-Mile Delivery
Getting devices from configuration to their final destination requires careful coordination. Pierson manages final-mile delivery to ensure secure, controlled transportation from our facility to your location.
This dock-to-dock chain of custody protects your investment and ensures devices arrive exactly when and where they are needed.
Ongoing Support Beyond Deployment
Our services don’t stop once your devices arrive.
Pierson remains available to support our clients long after deployment through:
Ongoing consultation
Troubleshooting support
Lifecycle management services
Future refresh planning
Our goal is not simply to complete a deployment — it’s to build long-term technology partnerships.
