AQAV AV9000 Standard Quality Management certification means a company not only complies with AV industry standards but has passed a company audit to ensure consistent application of these standards. The standards were developed by the Association for Quality in AV Technology (AQAV), a non-profit organization dedicated to improving the operational art of designing and installing audiovisual technology. Engineered audiovisual systems continue to become more complex and difficult to integrate. Focusing on the quality management of these systems, and of those who design and install them, can benefit the AV industry and all its stakeholders: including clients and users of AV technology, AV designers and installers, equipment manufacturers, related construction and architectural firms, and the environment. Our adherence to AQAV standards ensures your AV systems are of the highest quality, installed right the first time to save you money.
