Beier offers equipment and services globally. Beier’s employees offer flexibility and customization to retrofit vessels, new builds, and the most sophisticated marine projects of the future.
We decided to reach out to Mr. John Winters, Sr. Account Manager, Beier Integrated Systems to learn more about what they do and the synergy Zenitel solutions have in their overall business venture.
Beier Integrated Systems
headquartered in Mandeville, Louisiana, is a global leader in providing turn-key vessel control, navigation, communication, power distribution and power management solutions. Beier Integrated Systems has a team worldwide to support their customers.
In addition to turn-key support, Beier’s engineers and installation teams specialize in new build and retrofit projects, providing custom designed integrated systems. Doing so significantly reduces operational downtime, resulting in clients maintaining their reputation of dependabilityand superior performance.
Lastly, we asked John our standard three questions, and as always we where excited to hear the answers:
"What is the last project you sold where Zenitel equipment was used that you are proud to have won?"
Beier has recently won numerous projects using Zenitel equipment in various markets including OSV, dredge, ferry, ATB, research vessel, military, and government vessels. The most notable projects are the NOAA Retrofits and AGOR vessels.
"What does the future look like, in your opinion, when it comes to critical onboard communication solutions?"
Ferries, Research Vessels, and Wind SOVs will require very sophisticated interior communications to increase safety and crew efficiency. We see more use of smart devices, applications for control and monitoring, integration between crew wireless apparatus and fixed stations on the vessel. It is an interesting future ahead.
"What in your opinion is the strongest reason(s) you keep working with Zenitel?"
Zenitel offers Beier the highest quality systems and solutions for our customers. Beier’s customers can expect superior equipment with a first-class customer support network to minimize downtime over the life of the vessel. Zenitel is one of the largest providers of internal communications and CCTV in the markets that we serve. They provide detailed and accurate estimates in a timely manner and have strong engineering support.
