Predictive Wi-Fi surveys for new builds and office fit-outs
Designing Wi-Fi before walls go up ensures coverage, performance, and capacity are built in from day one — not patched in after handover.
At a glance
Design reliable Wi-Fi before installation begins.
Predictive RF modelling and capacity planning.
Fewer surprises and better Wi-Fi performance.
The challenge
In new builds and office fit-outs, Wi-Fi is often considered late in the project — after walls, ceilings, and furniture are already locked in. This can lead to coverage gaps, capacity issues, and costly rework.
- Access points placed without understanding RF behaviour
- Unexpected interference from building materials
- Insufficient capacity for user density
- Retrofits required after occupancy
The solution: Predictive Wi-Fi design
A predictive Wi-Fi survey models wireless coverage using floor plans and construction details before any hardware is installed. This allows Wi-Fi to be designed around the space — not guessed after the fact.
By accounting for wall types, ceiling heights, materials, and expected device density, we can determine optimal access point placement and configuration early in the project.
Designing coverage based on real building layouts.
Accounting for walls, glass, and structural elements.
Designing for expected user and device density.
Correct locations before cabling is installed.
The outcome
With a predictive survey completed early, Wi-Fi infrastructure could be installed correctly during the build phase, avoiding costly changes later and ensuring performance expectations were met from day one.
- Correct access point placement first time
- Reduced rework and post-handover fixes
- Consistent coverage across the entire space
- Capacity ready for staff and devices
- Smoother handover at project completion
Why this works
Predictive surveys remove guesswork. Designing Wi-Fi alongside construction ensures wireless performance matches how the space will actually be used — not assumptions made after occupancy.
Planning a new build or office fit-out?
If Wi-Fi performance matters from day one, a predictive survey can save time, cost, and frustration later.
