Technical consultancy

Technical consultancy is essential in any new or refurbished lighting project to ensure optimal performance, efficiency, and compliance. It helps guide the design process, from selecting the right products to planning the ideal layout and integrating smart controls. By using expert analysis and lighting simulations, technical consultancy ensures that the solution meets both functional and aesthetic needs while adhering to relevant standards. Ultimately, it reduces the risk of costly mistakes, maximizes energy savings, and delivers a lighting system that performs as intended from day one.

Key points

Here are the key points typically covered in a technical analysis for a lighting project:

  • Needs Assessment
    Understanding the client's goals, space requirements, and application-specific needs.

  • Lighting System Design
    Creating optimal lighting layouts, selecting fixture types, and defining control strategies.
  • Product Selection
    Recommending appropriate LED luminaires and components based on performance, quality, and compliance.
  • Lighting Calculations & Simulations
    Performing photometric simulations (e.g., Dialux, Relux) to predict light levels, uniformity, glare, and efficiency.
  • Compliance with Standards
    Ensuring the design meets local and international lighting codes (e.g., EN, ASHRAE, LEED).
  • Control System Integration
    Designing and specifying smart controls, sensors, and automation for energy management and flexibility.
  • Energy Efficiency Optimization
    Maximizing energy savings while maintaining visual comfort and performance.
  • Technology Updates & Innovation
    Advising on the latest trends in LED tech, smart systems, and future-ready solutions.
  • Integration with Architecture and Interior Design
    Ensuring the lighting system complements aesthetics and functional requirements of the space.
  • Scalability and Future Upgrades
    Designing systems with the potential for easy expansion or technological upgrades.
