Business telephone systems are typically implemented on one of four models: a hosted model, in which a third party owns the system resources and fully maintains them; a managed model, in which the customer owns the resources but pays a third party to maintain them; an in house model, in which the customer owns the resources and fully maintains them; and a hybrid model, which generally consists of a unique combination of the in house model and the hosted model.

If your Minneapolis-based company has determined that the in house model would work best for its needs, you may think that retaining the services of a certified Avaya partner in Minneapolis is unnecessary. However, when you consider what it takes to implement the system, you may be inclined to reach out to a certified Avaya partner in Minneapolis for assistance. Below are three ways an Avaya partner can assist you with implementing a business phone system in house.

System Design

Because business phone systems typically feature several telephone lines that connect to different telephone stations throughout the building, they must be intelligently designed with the construction elements of the building in mind. The goal is to deploy a system that offers the desired functionality while implementing as little hardware and cables as feasibly possible.

System Installation

Physically installing the system often entails performing a minor construction project to implement the hardware, especially when multiple floors and an in house Private Branch Exchange (PBX) is involved. An experienced Avaya partner in Minneapolis can help you execute the project economically and with as few alterations to the building as possible.

System Integration

System design and implementation are major hurdles, but there is another hurdle in implementing the phone system that some companies fail to consider: integrating the system with the existing IT network to provide the most seamless, comprehensive level of data access. Unless you have firsthand experience in performing this task, request the help of an Avaya partner in Minneapolis.
