New Independent Audio Visual Consultancy to Solve AV Blues

A new audio visual consultancy that is totally independent of links with manufacturers or distributors has been established by Paul Ferri after 23 years' experience in the market. AVanti 21 Consulting provides clients throughout the UK with a range of AV services without any commercial compromise.

“Choosing the right AV equipment, ensuring it is set up correctly, training people to use it to maximum effect and managing its life cycle is vital if companies and organisations want to make the right impact and are to benefit from their investments. Outsourcing to AVanti 21 Consulting removes the headache,” explained Paul.

Many AV users simply need unbiased consultancy so they purchase the right equipment, but AVanti 21 offers much more. The company can prepare and manage the tendering process from specification, through selection and to purchase. For architects, designers and facilities managers, the company can project manage the entire selection and installation process and provide on-going assistance. An important aspect of AVanti’s work is the integration of complex AV systems to fulfil the exact needs of each client. Finally, the company provides an equipment hire service.

“The rate of change in AV technology is similar to computers. AVanti 21 Consulting aims to break down the jargon and give clients a pragmatic and honest view on the best approach that will meet their need to create a professional presentations at an affordable price,” added Paul.

Using competitive daily or weekly rates, all fees for work are agreed before projects begin and the company is available on a contract or ad-hoc basis. Paul is a member of Infocomm and AVolution (International Communications Industries Association), which ensures standards of excellence are met through on-going training. He is also a Chartered Marketer and a Member of the Chartered Institute of Management.

From their Dunbartonshire base the company has already notched up some notable clients including University of Glasgow, Strathclyde Fire Brigade, Britannic Asset Management and West Dunbartonshire Council. “We are keen to repeat our early successes anywhere in the UK,” commented Paul.
