What Should Louisiana State Agencies Know About AV?Government agencies on the local, state, and federal level are just as dependent on technology as businesses and other organizations.  Having the ability to work effectively, efficiently, and securely has never been more important in both the public and private sectors.  It is for this very reason why AV integration has become a necessity for operational efficacy in terms of collaboration and communication.  However, the complexity of commercial AV implementation has its fair share of challenges. 

Different agencies and offices all have different needs and requirements.  An AV partner that understands these nuances and has the experience, technology, and knowledge to securely integrate the components and platforms that answer these specific needs with your network and existing IT infrastructure is essential.  Here are three elements where a commercial integration firm can enhance a government agency’s AV technology and operations. 

Simplified Collaboration

Technology has made collaboration and the collection and conversation of different ideas easier than ever.  Whether you need a solution that allows for presentations from multiple people in the same room, or across the state, there are platforms that make this simple and efficient.  Integrating collaboration tools into your network reduces other residual costs and improves productivity.

Remote Communication

Video conferencing was once an expensive nicety available to only to big companies or agencies with larger budgets.  Today that is not the case.  Cost-effective and easy-to-use tools are available for offices of any size and provide a significant return on investment.  With response being a major KPI for many departments and offices, having the ability to provide real-time feedback and share other visual elements has never been easier.

AV / IT Convergence

Arguably the most important facet of AV integration is the ability to manage, negotiate, and interact with the existing IT infrastructure. While security concerns and network integrity are crucial for any business, the stakes are even higher in government offices.  When implementing or upgrading new AV technology, it is vital to have a partner that cannot only provide the best solutions, but also understands the IT side of the equation and can make the two work together synergistically.

While boardroom automation, collaboration, and AV integration can streamline a number of operations, making any state agency more efficient and effective, it is important to have a proven, trusted partner.  Link Integration Group is a commercial integration firm the specializes in boardroom automation and workspace AV technology and design, with an expertise in IT.
