Security infrastructure, coordinated early

Physical security works best when it is designed into the workplace.

Cameras, recording equipment and connected security devices depend on more than the device itself. They need suitable mounting positions, pathways, cabling, network capacity, power and equipment space, all coordinated with the wider workplace design.

Provenance helps bring those requirements into the project early. We coordinate the physical infrastructure and the parties responsible for delivering it, working with appropriately licensed security specialists and registered cablers where required.

Coordinate security requirements with the workplace design.
Reduce late changes between security, IT and construction teams.
Create a clearer path from infrastructure planning to handover.

What we coordinate

The infrastructure around the security system matters just as much as the hardware.

Our role is to connect the physical security requirements with the workplace project. Depending on scope, that can include planning, equipment coordination, cabling requirements, network readiness, specialist interfaces, documentation and delivery oversight.

Camera infrastructure

Coordinate camera locations, mounting requirements, fields of view, power and network connectivity around the workplace design and agreed security intent.

Recording and storage

Plan recording hardware, storage capacity, equipment locations, rack requirements and supporting infrastructure in line with the selected security solution.

Security data cabling

Define cabling routes, outlets, patching and pathways for cameras and associated security devices, with installation completed by appropriately registered cablers.

Network and PoE coordination

Align switch ports, PoE budgets, VLAN or segmentation requirements and device connectivity with the client IT team and the wider workplace network.

Mounting and pathways

Coordinate brackets, ceiling or wall locations, containment, access and builder interfaces so the physical installation is considered before site delivery.

Testing and handover

Organise device schedules, labelling, test information, as-built records and handover documentation so the completed system is easier to operate and support.

Connected workplace security

Coordinate security with the systems and spaces around it.

Modern physical security often shares network infrastructure, communications rooms, PoE capacity and building pathways with other workplace technologies. Treating those dependencies as one coordinated workstream helps reduce clashes and makes responsibilities clearer before installation begins.

Workplace technology advisory

Bring physical security requirements into the wider workplace technology brief, standards and project decision-making process.

Meeting rooms and boardrooms

Coordinate shared network, rack, pathway and builder requirements where collaboration and security systems occupy the same environment.

Asset registers and lifecycle planning

Record cameras, recording hardware and related infrastructure so ownership, condition and future replacement planning are easier to manage.

From brief to handover

Make security infrastructure requirements visible before they become site issues.

Provenance keeps the workplace requirement, technical dependencies and delivery responsibilities connected throughout the project.

Understand the requirement

Review the site, workplace brief, risk considerations, existing infrastructure, operating needs and any client security standards.
Define the infrastructure

Translate the security intent into practical camera, recording, cabling, network, power, pathway and equipment-location requirements.
Coordinate specialist delivery

Align designers, builders, electricians, registered cablers, client IT teams and appropriately licensed security specialists around the agreed scope.
Verify and hand over

Confirm agreed infrastructure outcomes, resolve gaps and organise the records required for commissioning, support and future change.

Practical delivery standards

Build a security foundation that is easier to operate, maintain and change.

A good physical security outcome is not simply a collection of cameras. The supporting infrastructure should be practical to install, accessible to service, clearly documented and aligned with the client network and building environment.

Provenance can also review existing equipment before recommending replacement, helping identify assets that may be suitable for reuse and the areas where new investment adds genuine value.

Camera and equipment locations coordinated with plans.
Clear cabling, pathway and outlet requirements.
PoE, switching and network responsibilities understood.
Recording and storage infrastructure planned appropriately.
Licensed specialist responsibilities identified early.
Handover records organised for ongoing support.

Business outcomes

Security infrastructure that fits the workplace, not infrastructure that fights it.

The value is in coordination. Clear requirements, sensible interfaces and the right specialist involvement help create a physical security environment that can be delivered cleanly and supported with confidence.

Fewer coordination gaps

Bring security, IT and construction requirements together early so device locations, pathways, network capacity and access are not left until late in the project.

Cleaner installation outcomes

Coordinate the physical infrastructure around ceilings, walls, joinery, racks and workplace finishes rather than treating security as a late add-on.

Clearer accountability

Define responsibilities between the workplace project team, client IT, cablers and licensed security specialists before delivery begins.

Infrastructure ready for change

Create practical records and sensible capacity so cameras, storage and connected security devices can be maintained or refreshed more easily.

Frequently asked questions

Useful answers before physical security work begins.

Does Provenance install and commission security systems directly?

Provenance coordinates the workplace technology and infrastructure scope. Where security work requires a specific licence, certification or specialist competency, we work with appropriately licensed security providers and registered cablers as required.

Can you coordinate CCTV cameras and recording hardware as part of a fitout?

Yes. We can coordinate camera locations, recording hardware, storage, rack space, cabling, network and PoE requirements, pathways and project interfaces as part of the wider workplace technology programme.

Can you review an existing camera system before recommending replacement?

Yes. We can review existing equipment and infrastructure to help identify what may be suitable for reuse, what is approaching end of life and where the existing environment may constrain the proposed workplace design.

How do you coordinate physical security with the client network?

We identify the practical connectivity requirements for the security devices and coordinate those with the client IT team. Depending on the selected solution, that may include switch ports, PoE capacity, VLAN or segmentation requirements, IP addressing responsibilities and rack connectivity.

Can you provide documentation and asset information at handover?

Yes. Depending on scope, handover information can include device schedules, equipment records, serial numbers, locations, cabling references, labelling conventions, as-built information and other project documentation required by the client or specialist security provider.
