The Meijer ERCES program at a glance, more than fifty supercenters delivered through the same five-step playbook since 2018.
The challenge
Meijer needed compliant emergency-responder coverage at new and existing supercenters, in every jurisdiction it builds in, on a program that had to stay predictable.
The solution
WZC runs the complete ERCES process at every site: benchmark grid test, iBwave design, AHJ coordination, installation, and inspection sign-off, with 24/7 alarm monitoring after go-live.

Since 2018, WZC has been Meijer's preferred in-building wireless partner. Across more than fifty regional deployments, new construction and existing supercenters alike, WZC runs the complete ERCES process at every site.

The standard holds at scale: the program averages 95.5% coverage with 24/7 alarm monitoring.
