Ovation supplies and installs, so a single subcontract covers product and labor rather than splitting the scope across two vendors.

Drag to orbit, scroll to zoom. Shell colors are switchable, and the assembly exports to OBJ or GLTF for your drawing set.
Documents
Drawings, data

A measured look at the structure as found: risers, sightlines, egress and access.
Layout & seat count
Row and bay geometry, seat count, accessible locations and color program.
Submittal package
Drawings, product data, finish samples and the compliance documentation your reviewer needs.
Approval & release
You approve the set in writing. Only then does the order go to fabrication.
Install & closeout
Installation by Ovation, then as-built documentation and the inspection record for your files.
- A floor plan or site plan, however rough
- A seat target, or the row and bay geometry you already have
- Mounting condition — riser, tread, slab or existing structure
- Color direction, including school or club colors
- Bid or delivery dates, and the date the building has to be back in use
- Whether the project is a public bid, and which documents procurement requires
