WHO WE ARE
WHO WE ARE
Independent Home Systems (IHS) was founded in Portland, Maine, by three longtime friends and New England natives who bring together decades of experience and a complementary range of expertise.
IHS was created in response to a growing need among our clients: a single trusted partner to simplify, unify, and manage the increasingly complex technology within their homes and properties.
Today, that philosophy remains at the heart of what we do. We work closely with our clients and their teams to design, integrate, manage, and support sophisticated residential



OUR WORK
OUR WORK
Managing integrated technology in large-scale residential properties and estates is our specialty. With decades of industry experience, Independent Home Systems has developed the knowledge, processes, and attention to detail required to successfully deliver sophisticated residential technology systems.
At the center of our approach is the IHS Process — Design, Assemble, Program, Test Or DAPT. Whenever possible, systems are assembled, programmed, integrated, and thoroughly tested before deployment to the project site. This controlled process allows our team to identify issues early, maintain consistent installation standards, and arrive on site with systems prepared for an efficient and reliable deployment .THE IHS PROCESS
DESIGN
Every successful system begins with thoughtful design and engineering. We coordinate the technologies, infrastructure, and system requirements before installation begins.
ASSEMBLE
System components are carefully assembled and integrated using consistent IHS standards, creating an organized and serviceable technology platform
PROGRAM
Our systems are programmed and configured to work together seamlessly, with functionality tailored to the home and the way our clients live.
TEST
Before deployment, systems undergo comprehensive testing to verify communication, functionality, performance, and reliability.
FROM DESIGN TO LONG-TERM SUPPORT
At IHS, our clients, their homes, and their privacy always come first.
