Before anything is built, StockmasterCo assesses whether the space can actually do what the client needs. We review existing conditions, analyze programmatic needs, and issue a written suitability report — flagging deficiencies that could affect the project before they become costly. From there, we work with the client to define goals, develop preliminary video and broadcast budgets and schedules, and coordinate them with the architect and general contractor on the overall project plan.

StockmasterCo defines the scope of work for the scenic, lighting, and control teams and helps the owner assemble the right video and broadcast project team. Working alongside the architect, Mechanical, Electrical and Plumbing team, and general contractor, we help ensure the base building and the video and broadcast systems are fully integrated. We continuously monitor design development against the project’s goals, and keep cost estimates current as the design evolves. We also manage value engineering for the video and broadcast scope and set the long-lead procurement strategy — so the equipment that takes months to arrive is ordered in time to keep the project on schedule.

StockmasterCo prepares the Request for Proposal for the video and broadcast consultants and vendors the project requires and qualifies the bidders. As the construction documents are finalized, we update the video and broadcast budget and schedule and coordinate both with the owner, architect, and general contractor against the overall project plan.

StockmasterCo runs a transparent bid process for the video and broadcast scope — multiple vendors per line item, fully leveled, so the client can choose the right bidder with confidence. We manage interviews and bidder Request for Information and prepare a recommendation report for each bid group. Before any subcontractor is engaged, we review them with the owner — warranty, insurance, and shop drawing review — then negotiate the construction contract with counsel. Finally, we onboard vendors and coordinate client-direct vendors so the right people are engaged at the right stage.

This is where StockmasterCo’s hands-on background matters most. We oversee fabrication of the video and broadcast scope, including shop visits and reports, and observe progress on site as installation proceeds. Working with the general contractor, we confirm that acoustics, power, data, and HVAC are installed as specified to support the broadcast space, then oversee the on-site installation of all video and broadcast systems, including scenic, lighting, and control. As the space comes together, we collaborate with the client and the scenic and lighting designers on camera blocking and final lighting — making sure the finished studio meets the project’s goals, both physically and in how it will actually be used.

StockmasterCo doesn’t leave when the build is done. We ensure training is carried out on every system and provide on-site support through the client’s first use — when a studio’s real readiness is tested. We review the operations and maintenance manuals with the end-user and facilities teams, evaluate the project against the goals set at the outset, and walk the client through warranty and service agreement options. And we stay engaged afterward, with reviews at three, six, nine, and twelve months to make sure the space keeps performing.
