Recent site‑survey visit at a customer campus

To support the growing number of site installations nationwide—partly driven by an ongoing monitoring‑system project with Health and Human Services (HHS)—Paragon Robotics has expanded its team of on‑site regional field technicians to assist customers with site surveys, installations, and maintenance. Although Paragon Robotics’s headquarters are in Ohio, technicians from Florida to California have joined the sales and support team to cover the entire United States.

Paragon Robotics’ technicians work year‑round, helping customers install custom monitoring systems and maintaining existing equipment. As the team expands, its capabilities grow as well. Going forward, Paragon technicians will conduct more site surveys to assist customers such as the Department of Energy in identifying solutions that meet their application requirements. These surveys may involve measuring energy output, assessing facility constraints, and reviewing related equipment.

Technicians also cultivate strong, ongoing relationships with customers, ensuring they know support is available whenever and wherever needed. In addition to phone and chat assistance, our technicians provide on‑site visits to address installation and maintenance of existing systems or to help plan new deployments.

Our field technicians serve locations nationwide, organized into regions: West, Midwest, Northwest, Upper Midwest, Mountain, South Central, Southeast, Northeast, and Central East, as shown in the map below. This network enables us to reach customers more quickly and efficiently, ensuring timely support.
