Implementation approach Q-SYS a four-stage method: Discovery & mapping: Observe traffic patterns and map Stima member journeys to queues, services, and display logic. Configuration & integrations: Set up services/counters, call flows, dashboards, and feedback schemas; integrate with branch audio where applicable.
