3I SPECIAL PROJECTS

Complex problem.
One accountable
technical operator.

Some projects do not fit neatly into a single trade, contractor, or discipline. 3I Special Projects helps private clients and businesses understand the problem, develop the right solution, assemble the required specialists, and move the project through execution.

Bring us the problem.

When nobody quite
knows who to call

We determine what is actually required, identify the right people and technology, coordinate execution, and help get the project finished properly.

  • A project crosses mechanical, electrical, construction, controls, software or automation.
  • Multiple contractors are involved but nobody owns the whole problem.
  • Unusual equipment needs to be installed, modified, integrated or commissioned.
  • A recurring technical problem has resisted normal troubleshooting.
  • You need an informed representative to assess vendors, quotations or proposed solutions.
  • A property or business needs modernization, but the solution is not yet defined.
  • You have an idea and need someone to turn it into an executable project.

What we handle

Across systems.
Through to execution.

01

Complex Property Systems

Integration and coordination across the systems a property depends on.

  • Mechanical systems, pumps and unusual equipment
  • Backup power and camera/security coordination
  • Networking, access systems and smart-home technology
  • Monitoring, workshops, garages and cross-system troubleshooting
02

Special Installations & Retrofits

Turn an unusual installation or an owner-designed concept into an executable project.

  • Custom equipment, machinery and specialty installations
  • Art and unusual installations
  • Workshops, specialty rooms and technology retrofits
  • Automation, monitoring and complicated equipment integration
03

Technical Troubleshooting

When several vendors are blaming one another, we step back and look at the system as a whole.

  • Recurring equipment problems and intermittent failures
  • Cross-system interactions
  • Vendor disagreements about root cause
  • Undocumented installations and unusual or legacy equipment
04

Owner-Side Project Representation

A technically informed representative for the owner, with attention to the whole problem.

  • Review proposed solutions and compare vendors
  • Coordinate contractors and track technical decisions
  • Document work and outstanding issues
  • Support commissioning and verification
05

Automation, Monitoring & Technology

Useful technology with a clear job to do.

  • Sensors, IoT and remote monitoring
  • Dashboards, alerts and equipment tracking
  • Data collection and asset monitoring
  • Workflow automation and practical AI-enabled tools
06

Business & Industrial Special Projects

Technical project execution for equipment, facilities and operations.

  • Equipment modernization and brownfield improvements
  • Production, maintenance, operational technology and instrumentation
  • Technical due diligence and acquisition/site technical reviews
  • Vendor/technology evaluation and unusual implementation projects

For private clients & property managers

Private Technical Services

Discretion. Documentation.
One point of contact.

Complex properties can contain commercial-grade mechanical, electrical, communication, security, automation, and control systems. When something falls outside normal property maintenance, 3I provides a technically capable point of contact who can investigate the issue, coordinate specialists, and oversee the solution.

Discreet troubleshooting, vendor coordination, property technology, mechanical systems, unusual equipment, documentation, technical oversight, monitoring, upgrades and special installations.

Confidentiality, clear records and accountability guide the work. Regulated electrical, security, gas and other licensed work is coordinated with appropriately authorized specialists.

Example situations — not case studies

The kinds of problems
we are built for

“Three contractors have looked at this and nobody agrees on what is wrong.”
“We bought a piece of equipment and need someone to figure out how to install and integrate it.”
“The HVAC company, electrician, IT company and security company all operate independently, but the property needs to work as one system.”
“We’re considering upgrading this facility but don’t know which technology actually makes economic sense.”
“We have an unusual project and don’t know who normally does this.”

That last category is often where 3I is most useful.

How Special Projects works

Responsibility that stays
with the project.

01

Understand

We start with the actual problem, not a predefined service.

02

Define

We determine what needs to be solved, what expertise is required, and what a practical solution looks like.

03

Assemble

Where specialists, trades, vendors, engineers, or other professionals are required, we help coordinate the right team.

04

Execute

We remain involved through implementation so responsibility does not disappear between vendors.

You should not have to become the project manager just because the problem crosses multiple disciplines.
