All systems are equipped with either a Remote Access Device for Norstar systems and an intelligent Site Event Buffer Modem for Meridian 1 systems. Both allow ACI Systems to access systems remotely in a quick response. When able the problem will be cleared remotely, otherwise the dispatched technician will be sent with the appropriate parts to the site.

Maintenance Service ACI Systems provides customized service plans to meet the needs of each customer. Upon the expiration of the Warranty period a Maintenance plan will be provided to the customer. Because many customers desire to have the choice between providing some degree of self maintenance and full service, ACI Systems offers both partial and full maintenance plans. Full Maintenance would like Warranty service cover all hardware, software and labor on a 24-hour/365 day schedule. Partial Maintenance would be customized to allow the customer to maintain a portion of the system with ACI Systems providing the remaining portion of the system. The most common version of this type of plan would have the customer providing service on the telephones. Under this arrangement the customer would have some spare telephones and would replace the set and arrange for ACI Systems to replace the defective set in a depot drop ship manner. Other versions of partial maintenance are available on a custom basis Nortel offers training classes that can provide certification for customers who desire to become more self reliant for the more day to day maintenance tasks. For customers who do not chose a maintenance plan service is available on a time and material basis. Best effort to provide response times consistent with our service plans is made.
