- Site Survey and Needs Assessment
An in-depth site survey and needs assessment is conducted and begins with a discussion of the room’s overall functionality and objectives. Topics also include different equipment options that may be needed, such as displays, projectors, video conferencing equipment, control systems and more. Additionally, our team will provide guidance on how to achieve a favorable room environment with proper lighting and audio levels.
- Room Design and Proposal Creation
Expert design engineers leverage the information from the site survey, along with a unique understanding of optimal collaboration environments, to design or tailor an audio visual solution specifically for the room. A comprehensive proposal is created for each project by:
- Evaluating customer needs and specific requirements
- Identifying equipment and solutions that work within designated budget
- Developing comprehensive system functionality and room layout
- Proposal Review and Questions
Once created, the proposal is delivered to the client where system functionality and pricing are reviewed with our team. Any comments or questions will be addressed and, if necessary, changes will be deferred to the design team.
Our team has a deep understanding of how different technologies work together to create a cohesive collaboration environment. The goal is to ensure the technology is seamlessly integrated into the room so users are able to focus on the meeting at hand. As a result, customers will receive an entire audio visual solution that is perfectly aligned to their needs.
- Implementation & Project Management
Project management is essential for the successful implementation of audio visual systems and can often be the difference for completing a project on-time. IVCi relies on our unique project management software along with proven processes and methodologies to ensure effective communication and resource planning. With our extensive project management and implementation experience, we are perfectly positioned to deliver a solution that meets our customers’ expectations.
Control System Programming
Control systems and control programming are the backbone of any audio visual integrated room. Our expertly trained programmers have a deep knowledge of all major control system platforms and will design an interface based on an organization’s unique needs and specifications. We have also invested heavily in the development of our own Control System Platform (CSP) that allows customers to have access to a time tested and proven interface.
Control systems and control programming are the backbone of any audio visual integrated room. With the push of a button participants can switch between content from a PC, projector or interactive whiteboard, mute and unmute microphones, pan, tilt, or zoom the camera on a video conferencing system, connect video and audio calls and much more. This eliminates the need for multiple remotes and provides an easy to use interface for meeting participants.
customers can have access to a time tested, proven interface with the following features:
- Presentation, audio conference, and video conference modes that automatically revert to preset lighting, shade, and display controls
- Taskbar with commonly used functions, such as lighting and volume control, available at all times
- Automatic shutdown either at a specific time each night or through an occupancy sensor after a certain period of inactivity
- Customized to room specifications by adding or removing features and personalized to include company logos
- Detailed user manual with button-by-button descriptions and screen shots of each system task
Custom GUI Development
Our expertly trained programmers have a deep knowledge of all major control system platforms and will design an interface based on an organization’s unique needs and specifications. The custom interface includes a detailed control system design document/user manual with screen shots of each system task and a button by button description of each function.
Bring Your Own Control
Augment any control system with a wireless touch-panel. This allows a user to control the room with a familiar device from any seat in the house instead of having to sit directly in front of the wired touch panel. As a result, colleagues no longer have to lean across each other to adjust the speaker volume or switch presentation modes.
Designing a solution’s audio and visual components to “talk” to each other generates a more streamlined and effective user interface. We will work with you to determine the perfect blend of video and audio conferencing, networking and multimedia capabilities to create an A/V environment that addresses your specific needs.
Desktop Collaboration
Access to multiple applications on your laptop and PC has its clear efficiencies. From instant messaging to sharing content to meeting through real-time video, these solutions integrate with your existing systems to optimize scalability and performance.
Mobile Devices
Kazla’s best practices in supporting mobile devices in the workplace are designed for maximum portability and security, so users can integrate without having to worry about a network breach.
