Design 27 is a regional consulting and design firm based in Indianapolis, Indiana, specializing in the planning and design of integrated low voltage technology systems within the built environment. Our expertise includes structured cabling infrastructure, audiovisual systems, electronic security, access control, and related technology solutions that support modern facilities.
Our project portfolio spans a variety of markets, including K-12 and higher education, healthcare, hospitality, corporate, and community-focused facilities.

- Assist with project invoicing and pay application review as required.
- Monitor project schedules, milestones, and construction progress across multiple projects and facilities.
- Conduct site visits to verify installation progress, document project status, and coordinate with contractors and owners.
- Identify potential project challenges and communicate solutions proactively with internal and external stakeholders.
- Support project teams by maintaining organized records, schedules, and action-item tracking.
