Today, your workforce is spread across homes, offices, and possibly even time zones. As companies grapple with the challenges of a hybrid working model, they’re finding that effective communication and technology infrastructure are more critical than ever. Yet, many organizations make the same mistake year after year: when it comes to budgeting, AV (Audio Visual) often gets lumped into the IT (Information Technology) budget.

AV BUSTING YOUR BUDGET? AN INTEGRATOR CAN HELP
Have you ever started a home improvement project by uttering these famous last words: I bet I can do that myself? Only, you later discover after multiple trips to the hardware store, a string of unforeseen complications, and a lot of swearing that it would have been faster, easier and cheaper to hire a professional in the first place? Now, have you ever been tempted to start an AV integration project the same way? Before you find yourself cursing at your video conferencing system, consider this. Just like you need the right skills and tools to install a new toilet, you need the right skills and tools for a truly successful AV integration and AV integrators have them. Involving them early in the process can help you avoid mistakes and missteps that will be time-consuming and costly to fix later. For example, according to industry standard expert AQAV, the cost of fixing poor quality AV can approach 20 percent of the total cost of the system, while monitoring and maintaining a good quality AV system only costs 2.5 percent of the total purchase price.
