Systems Integration: combining sub-systems and/or peripherals, adding software and cabling to specification in order to produce fully configured product. Many times it means building a system from off-the-shelf components to accomplish a job previously not automated.

The Systems Integrator is a company that specializes in putting different components or systems together to build “new”, customized products, applications or systems. Systems integrators mostly purchase or license third party or off-the-shelf technologies and components to re-package and integrate.
