Operations and Lighting Project Management Series

Custom integrators excel at delivering complex technology systems, but lighting design, fixture procurement, and project execution introduce distinct operational and management challenges across the entire organization. This track addresses critical gaps in both business operations and project delivery, equipping operations managers, project managers, and leadership teams with structured methodologies to navigate lighting-specific complexities. Sessions cover responsibility definition across trades, fixture procurement strategies that protect margins, linear lighting coordination from estimation through installation, process documentation using SIPOC and AI tools to transform tribal knowledge into scalable operational standards, and role clarification frameworks including Lighting Fixture Responsibility Charts. Led by industry professionals experienced in both technology integration and lighting project execution, this track provides practical tools to streamline business processes, reduce errors, eliminate costly rework, improve trade coordination, and transform lighting from a high-risk obligation into a profitable, scalable service line that enhances operational efficiency, client satisfaction, and long-term business growth.
