Audio Visual is usually the last step in a new build or renovation. Unexpected delays in the schedule can create a particular challenge for A/V contractors, and that’s where project management comes in. During the contractor’s installation of audio/video equipment, along with controls and automation, a Project Manager helps account for delays in every other trade to ensure we are still delivering on—or ahead of—schedule. Effective project management requires a concerted effort among the end user, integrator, and other trades to take proactive steps to satisfy the client’s expectations while anticipating the schedules of various factions on a job.
