To start, we will introduce the basics of the project. Your onboarding coordinator will contact you on what is required and what the project entails as a whole. As we learn more about your project and needs, we will be able to more accurately recommend certain hardware, integrations, and other assets that will help you along the way. Your onboarding coordinator will also give you a glimpse into REACH’s culture, and how you can contact us with any additional questions or concerns.

STEP 2: SHIP HARDWARE

If you choose to order hardware through REACH, we will ship orders to the provided address once we are aware of all the requirements. Of course, existing hardware can be utilized as well. These users can speed up the process by providing the player type. This will allow us to set up the REACH software properly.
