How Sage actually shows up on a project.
Real installations, real specifications, real rep workflows \u2014 documented end-to-end.
Specifiers and rep agencies learn faster from concrete projects than abstract datasheets. The Case Studies library captures how Sage gets specified, ordered, installed, and monitored on actual commercial projects \u2014 anonymized or branded depending on client permissions.

Built for how reps and specifiers actually work.
Occupancy-based filtering
Browse by healthcare, data center, education, federal, industrial, hospitality, retail. See what Sage looks like for your project type.
Full project spec
Every case study includes the bill of materials, the spec basis, and the wiring architecture — all downloadable.
Rep workflow capture
How the rep agency ran the opportunity: cross-reference → cover call → submittal → order. What worked, what didn't.
Engineering notes
What the specifying engineer actually had to solve — voltage drop over long runs, load balancing on a 1000W Volta, transfer switch coordination with EES.
Post-install monitoring
Sage Live™ screenshots from real installations — self-test results over time, fault alerts, and how facility staff actually use the data.
Outcomes and metrics
Install cost vs. legacy unit-equipment. 5-year maintenance cost delta. Downtime, tests passed, inspections cleared.
Competitive displacement stories
Specifically how the cross-reference tool turned a Lithonia or Hubbell spec into a Sage order — with the before/after specs.
Reference customers
Anonymized by default. Opt-in branded case studies where the client wants visibility. Reference calls available for serious prospects.
Rep-ready PDFs
Every case study exports to a rep-branded PDF leave-behind — drop into your next client meeting as supporting collateral.
Want early access?
Sage rep agencies and active specifiers can request early access as soon as the first private beta goes live. We'll contact you when your tier opens.
Initial batch drops with 3 anonymized healthcare + 2 data-center projects once written engineering signoff is complete on each. Additional projects queued behind active installations as commissioning completes.
Project profiles, in development.
Below are the first six case studies currently being authored. Details are shown in sketch form; full narratives and engineering documentation publish as each project's write-up clears engineering and client review.
Tertiary hospital — multi-floor central battery retrofit
From unit-equipment chaos to a single Sage central battery bus. 10-sec EES bridge, Joint Commission self-test logs, zero ladder-height maintenance for corridor egress.
Hyperscale data hall — white-space egress
Phoenix recessed downlights at 9'6" ceiling grid over hot/cold aisles. Central battery tied into the NOC monitoring. Commissioning passed Level 5 with Sage Live™ generating the test report.
Research university — science building complex
Three interconnected research buildings, shared central battery topology, Sage-branded exit signs throughout. Rep agency placed the order 22 days after cross-reference replaced the competitor spec.
Federal courthouse — BAA-compliant replacement
Legacy fixtures replaced one-for-one with Sage equivalents. Buy American Act certification delivered with submittal. Fire marshal sign-off in hours, not weeks.
Petrochemical control room — hazardous-location exits
Purpose-built exit-sign specification for Class I Div 2 areas. Luma self-luminous exits in primary corridor; hard-wired Jasper in lobby. Central battery outside the hazardous zone.
Luxury hotel flagship — architectural continuity
Emergency fixtures specified to disappear into the architecture. Recessed Obsidian downlights matched to the general lighting spec. Guests never see a blinking LED or a battery test button.
