ACT Associates takes great pride in being a key member of your design team and since our start, have never missed a deadline on any of our projects. With ACT Associates, our name is on every drawing and document that we submit, and we truly feel a great responsibility to our customers to produce a high-quality product. We understand the critical path on all our projects and work hard to provide the best possible product and solutions for our clients. We will work tirelessly for your project to bring our knowledge and resources of our industry partners. These resources include manufacturer visits and webinars, product demos, and tours
of completed projects.
The importance of becoming involved in a project as soon as possible cannot be over-emphasized. As a part of schematic and master planning phases, we can bring our expertise to bear on connectivity and electronic infrastructure goals to establish advanced design concepts, and accurate budgeting. Many capabilities of an effective presentation system require coordination in the base building plan, especially electrical conduit layouts and telecommunication connections. Involvement at this stage can allow for expanded capabilities within the same budget, and save countless hours for changes which would incur design expenses later.
Once the goals have been established, we work closely with the architect to make sure that we guide the establishment of the infrastructure. When applicable, we will also coordinate details with other project members, such as the telecommunications contractors, information technology professionals, electrical, and general contractors. We apply what we’ve learned over the years into innovative, cost-effective design solutions that meet the client’s objectives, budget and schedule.
ACT Associates will provide the needed documentation and knowledge to help the AV Contractor put it all together. Each project contains all the information and specifications for all related trades to build a complete user-friendly facility.
Depending on the detail required, our design packages would include some or all of the following detail drawings and specifications. All of our drawings are created with AutoCad.
Audiovisual designs for today’s environment require us to look at “smart” technologies where the tools for presentation are becoming the tools for communication. This process can take a lot of time and money. This is why we’ve introduced AV/VR design. Using virtual design tools, we are able to quickly collaborate and find solutions for a future space within minutes, while providing the exact solution our Client needs as they experience their future build months or even years in advance. After defining these requirements, ACT produces construction-grade drawing packages, provides project management services, and oversees installation through project close-out. Our AV/ VR design experience includes:
