they are running at peak performance. As

technology continues to evolve, today’s security

management systems are increasing in size and

complexity. The integration between software and

hardware platforms on these systems requires

routine service and maintenance to ensure

business continuity. The System Optimization

Program provides highly skilled support

professionals to periodically perform a series of

maintenance functions, run diagnostics and

make performance enhancements.

The System Optimization Program analyzes all

aspects of a system including operating systems,

applications software and database files and

structures. The periodic maintenance visits by a

Honeywell support professional also give the

connection to Honeywell. Our support

professionals will initiate a Q & A session where

the customer can ask questions, request a

demonstration, or request customization or new

features in the products.
