AMS.NET

AMS.NET is a leading technology solutions provider that delivers cutting-edge technology to K-12 entities, such as school districts and county offices of education. For over three decades, the firm has consistently provided customized products, forged strong alliances with manufacturers, and recruited a team of expert engineers to help educational institutions leverage the benefits of modern technology.

“We are the preferred vendor for customers, offering a comprehensive portfolio of K-12 technologies, integrated networking and cabling services, and remote and on-site maintenance for all installations,” says Robert Tocci, President and CEO of AMS.NET.
One of the firm’s key advantages is its broad line card that features a variety of technology solutions, products, and services designed for the K-12 market. To enhance the availability of these offerings, the firm builds lasting partnerships with top-notch technology suppliers like Cisco, Meraki, and Hewlett Packard Enterprise.

“Cisco has been our biggest partner due to their extensive range of products in multiple technology areas and their flexible leasing options for their products and services,” adds Tocci.

AMS.NET’s portfolio covers mass notification systems and cyber security solutions. It also comprises cloud calling, cloud-based video surveillance cameras, environmental sensors, visitor management, and CAT6 cabling infrastructure.

What truly distinguishes AMS.NET is its commitment to providing end-to-end technical support that includes pre-sales technical design, project management, consulting, and managed services.

The firm ensures these services are inherently adaptable and can complement or cooperate with existing IT staff, easing the burden on understaffed IT departments.

Addressing Challenges with Tailored Tech Support

AMS.NET understands that understaffed IT departments pose the main obstacle in deploying technology solutions in K-12 institutions. To address this, the firm acts as a full-service tech support hub that assists these departments in the design and implementation of their technology investments.

To this end, AMS.NET also offers a 5-year plan to help K-12 entities efficiently manage and execute projects, irrespective of the number or type of vendors or technologies involved. This plan can be carried out incrementally each year or through leasing contracts that enable the entire technology integration project to be done at once.

Likewise, AMS.NET tackles another vital challenge— campus security. The firm leverages its cloud-based surveillance cameras, access control systems, alarms, and environmental sensors to strengthen its clients’ security measures. In schools, it uses AI and video analytics to identify threats quickly and deploys cloud-managed mass notification and paging solutions to ensure prompt incident response. In addition to enhanced security, these integrated systems simplify daily tasks such as scheduling school bells and announcements.

AMS.NET’s expertise is further demonstrated by its twodecade experience with the E-rate bidding process. It has a refined understanding of delivering technology solutions using E-rate funds, ensuring that educational institutions optimize their funding while complying with the bidding process regulations and prevailing wage requirements.

A Customer-Centric Approach to Customized Technology Solutions

In its quest to provide personalized solutions to K-12 entities, AMS.NET follows a rigorously designed methodology. It starts with a thorough assessment, during which the accounts team and pre-sales engineers appraise the customer’s current technology environment.

The assessment aims to identify obsolete technologies and document the district standards. Equipped with this profound understanding, the firm then devises a solution, ensuring it flawlessly aligns with the district’s goals and business objectives.

This is followed by an implementation plan synchronized with the customer’s timeline and staffing needs, enabling a smooth transition and minimal operational disruption. Post-implementation, AMS.NET offers support in the form of hourly billing contracts and managed services, allowing its customers to select the level of support that best fits their needs and resources. In essence, AMS.NET’s approach encompasses each customer’s distinct needs, from the initial assessment to postimplementation support. This customer-centric methodology sets the firm apart in the K-12 technology solutions landscape.
