Commercial Audio Visual Solutions

Presenting a professional image as a 21st century business at the cutting edge of technology is almost as dependant on audio visual communication as light bulbs are on electricity. A+K’s expertise with Audio-visual technology can make an enormous difference to how your enterprise communicates and collaborates - keeping you at the forefront of technology…and way ahead of your competition.

In the knowledge economy, communication is the very life-blood of commerce. Customers will base their purchase decisions on what they know about you; sharing ideas and being able to work together effectively as a team is vital in today’s fast-moving business environment.

Digital signage systems are a familiar sight in many public spaces. But the use of digital signage in-house is one of the fastest-growing trends in corporate communication. We recently installed our A+K PADS system at a Manchester business to enable the effortless sharing of calendar and training course data between two completely separate sites. 50” Mitsubishi LCD screens are located in the reception areas of the firm’s head office and training centre. The A+K PADS content management system takes training room booking information directly from Microsoft Outlook™ and presents it automatically on the screens in both locations, along with live news feeds and a scrolling messaging system – all controlled by existing admin staff using from their normal working environment. Thanks to A+K PADS, there’s no more confusion about room bookings saving time and frustration.

In nearby Bolton, we installed two of our PolyVision eno interactive white boards into a company of design engineers. Now there’s no more piles of discarded flip-chart paper – the engineers can manipulate CAD diagrams, images, freehand sketches and notes in a single interactive workspace that allows complete freedom of expression. Not only that, but diagrams and information can be saved and shared electronically later. According to the customer, the difference in productivity – not to mention the number of trees saved - has been dramatic.

For a prominent City of London financial services company, we provided a state-of-the-art boardroom/presentation room facility that provides an effective working space for the firm, but also delivers a tour de force presentation facility for its dealings with customers and prospective customers. A+K not only provided the latest projection and teleconference equipment, but through its Media Integration division, also executed its integration into the furniture and surroundings of the room with precision and skill. The result is an environment that combines functionality and elegance.
