Review of AVI-SPL for audio-visual equipment ordering and installation performed in Education Facilities
Verified User
Project Manager in Other
Facilities Services Company, 1001-5000 employees
AVI-SPL has been subcontracted to my organization to provide audio-visual equipment and perform installation services of that equipment in new and existing educational facilities in spaces, such as classrooms, labs, conference rooms, and other areas where audio-visual technology is used in those spaces. AVI-SPL has worked on several individual projects for our organization over the last several years.
AVI-SPL recently completed a 2.5 million dollar contract for a 155,000 sf academic building at ACC Rio Grande Campus.
AVI-SPL recently completed a 2.5 million dollar contract for a 155,000 sf academic building at ACC Rio Grande Campus.
- Schedule management of equipment deployment and installation.
- Addressing punchlist items that are generated at the end of a project.
- Holding weekly project management meetings to keep the team informed of progress.
- Timely responsiveness to trouble issues that are discovered during installation.
- Follow-through to address all punchlist and warranty items after substantial completion.
- Accommodating changes in scope from the Owner late in the project schedule.
- Lack of manpower to complete certain tasks on-time and stay on schedule.
- Lack of continuity in the project manager role for the duration of the project.
- Some equipment was incorrectly ordered and not caught before our organization "accepted" it, so we weren't able to resolve the issue in our accounting system, which caused some big issues with the billing of materials.
- Inability to receive technology equipment in a timely manner (not entirely AVI-SPL's fault, due to the supply chain issues being experienced nationally).
- Poor and inaccurate communication between installers and the PM regarding the status of completion of the project.
AVI-SPL has the expertise and buying power to perform the work required by our organization. Because AVI-SPL knows our organization from working on several projects in the past, they understand the unique requirements for our audio-visual systems design and performance. They also know our project managers and have good working relationships with the team, which ensures better communication and execution of the installations. AVI-SPL has recently been overextended, performing two major projects at the time time. Adequate labor hasn't been consistently provided to complete work as a result. In addition, some of the labor doesn't have enough experience to effectively tackle punchlist items that arise at the end of install.
- Work was completed in instructional spaces on time so that classes could be held in those spaces. AVI-SPL responded to our requests to have certain rooms completed by certain dates.
- Installation schedule has been extended due to AVI-SPL's labor shortage. In addition, they've provided some less inexperienced installers that probably aren't wholly qualified to do these types of complex installations.
- AVI-SPL subsequently brought in a new PM toward the end of the project that was very skilled in completing the project. His attention to detail and good follow-through allowed the Owner to have "good feelings" at the end of the project despite the many hiccups that occurred throughout the installation process.
We've struggled to receive equipment ordered in a timely manner, due to global supply chain issues, labor shortages, etc. that are being experienced by the construction industry as a whole. Labor shortages locally have also had some impact on our project, such that AVI-SPL wasn't able to provide enough manpower to complete certain aspects of the job.
Having since completed the project, the Owner has submitted several warranty claims for defective equipment. AVI-SPL has been processing these claims and servicing us well by representing us with the original equipment manufacturers to ensure the equipment is either repaired or replaced.
Having since completed the project, the Owner has submitted several warranty claims for defective equipment. AVI-SPL has been processing these claims and servicing us well by representing us with the original equipment manufacturers to ensure the equipment is either repaired or replaced.
All of our instructional spaces are designed to support remote/in-person hybrid instruction. AVI-SPL has set up these spaces and performed a lot of fine-tuning, testing, and certification to make sure they are working properly. So far we've had minimal issues with the functionality of those systems aside from some minor code issues that needed to be corrected on the touch panel controls.
We've now been using spaces for a full school semester and I can report that 95% of the classrooms are performing well and as intended. We've had only a few minor issues, which is positive given the size and complexity of this AV project.

AVI-SPL is a mid-tier A/V subcontractor as based on my experience. They get the job done, but there are lots of hiccups that happen along the way. A project never goes very smoothly, but AVI-SPL does take responsibility for the issues that arise and does stay to complete the job to our satisfaction (eventually).
Having had time to reflect on the performance of AVI-SPL against it's peers, the company performed admirably under challenging circumstances and got us to the finish line despite many headwinds. I'd use them again on a big project, however, by applying a few lessons learned that would improve how this project went.

We have a staff of 3 audio visual specialists in-house in a group called TLED (Teaching and Learning Excellence Division), that service and support all A/V systems college-wide. They also provide guidance and design assist to specify equipment and develop design standards for all AV configurations (space type by space type) and provide support/CA services for the end users for our large construction projects.
- General Purpose Classroom projector/motorized screen systems tied to an instructor podium with a controlling computer.
- A/V integration into conference room and meeting room tables.
- Digital signage/advertisement displays placed in common high-traffic areas.
- Continuity in the design and equipment used for AV in all spaces to facilitate ease of service and maintenance college-wide.
- We've installed some high-tech panelized digital displays for large scale interactive presentations.
- Developed a performance/meeting space with complete audio visual capabilities, such as live streaming broadcast, surround sound, special theatrical lighting and live host microphoning.
- AVI-SPL offered up some creative solutions to address punchlist items that were encountered after beneficial occupancy.
- Utilize AVI-SPL's subject matter expertise to strengthen design standards for AV installations.
Although we've done a lot of business with AVI-SPL, the last few projects have been very bumpy and project completion schedules have been missed by a few months, causing some disruption in our ability to use the spaces as planned. This factors into getting lot of complaints from the intended end users. AVI-SPL is still one of the few large A/V subcontractors in our region that is capable of doing a multi-million A/V installation project. With limited choice we tend to go back to them given their familiarity with our organization.
UPDATE: Having completed the ACC Rio Grande Campus renovation, my opinions of AVI-SPL have improved. They finished the project strong with the support of new PM that did a great job of picking up where we left off and carrying the project through to 100% completion to the Owner's satisfaction.

- Prior Experience with the Product
As a public entity, we have strict requirements for bidding out construction work. AVI-SPL has a DIR contract and our Board of Trustees had previously approved them for use on larger projects valued over $100k. By using this "pre-approval", we were able to avoid a several month long formal competitive bid solicitation process that would've delayed installation of the final product beyond an acceptable date.
I would've started earlier and used a formal solicitation process rather than fast-tracking the project to a single A/V firm that knew they had the project from day one (and probably didn't offer us the most competitive pricing).
- Implemented in-house
Yes
AVI-SPL installed the project in three distinct phases. We had three different substantial completion dates for different parts of the large academic building and AVI-SPL was nimble enough and able to adjust "on the fly" to complete installations following a construction schedule that moved around a great deal.
Change management was a major issue with the implementation
Change was the name of the game on this project. We had more change that 99% of the typical projects out there. Considering the amount of change thrown at them, AVI-SPL did an admirable job or responding accordingly.
Given a caveat that this project had major changes to overcome, I would say AVI-SPL did about as well as any large installer out there could do under the circumstances.
No, we have a standard one year warranty period. We are currently being supported by AVI-SPL during this period. ACC has it's own in-house service and support team that has subject matter expertise to perform services in-house. For specialized installations that are unfamiliar to our in-house support team, we may elect to engage premium support in the future. Technology is rapidly evolving and sometimes we can't keep up.
No
We have some malfunctioning Absen digital tiles on a digital wall installation. AVI-SPL was able to pull in the manufacturer's rep and distributor to come in and troubleshoot the issues and offer up solutions to remedy. The problem was so beguiling that it had everyone at ACC and AVI-SPL stumped, but by pulling in right people we were able to fix the issue with additional expertise. The problem had been ongoing for months after beneficial occupancy, but it's finally been rectified.
AVI-SPL is accessible and responsive to our requests for support.
Yes
ACC has a standard design for a custom touch-screen interface. It is driven by a lot of code. AVI-SPL struggled at times to get the code correctly input so that the outward facing design was consistent from room to room. After much work during the warranty phase, AVI-SPL has fixed all known issues.

AVL-SPL was used to create a solution for Executive level conference room for Zoom Room. They recommended solution of Poly Studio X50. BUT unfortunately the camera speaker tracking was not good for room of the size. It was then we learned Poly Studio X50 was for smaller rooms, not medium size conference rooms. This mistake from the beginning led to delays and costs over budget as we had to purchase another conferencing codec to replace it. We worked with them for another room of similar size, this time they recommended using Poly G7500 with 1Beyond HAWK camera. BUT they forgot to include adapters needed for the camera to connect to G7500, which led to more delays. Overall experience with AVL-SPL has been mediocre at best with major design problems from the start with each Zoom Room we tried to install. In my opinion, there are many other AV integrators, I'd recommend going with another.
- After install 3 year service
- The design of the solutions needs to be more appropriate for the size of the room. Still cannot understand why they'd use a Poly Studio X50 for the Executive board room.
- Communication between installation technicians and project managers & design engineers needs to improve. In the first room, the technicians had schematics to use for installation, leading to 1-hour delay on installation day.
- More attention to details, missing parts which led to delays on 2nd room.
- Faster response time for service support.
From my experience, do NOT use AVI-SPL for executive-level board rooms, they recommended a bad design with codec meant for small, huddle rooms.
- Negative - increased cost due to having to purchase additional hardware to fix design issues from the beginning.
Increase responsiveness and the number of technicians available. They seem to only have around 7 to 8 technicians in all of the bay area, that's NOT enough in my opinion!
They setup 2 Zoom Rooms.

Would not hire or recommend
They
did not listen to the design process at all. I showed them the existing room
that I wanted to be mimicked and they disregarded and designed something that was not
at all what we needed so that they could come in cheaper and secure the bid. At
the end of the project, they would not replace the wrong hardware that they
suggested in order for features that were specifically requested to work. We
had to go out and purchase the hardware on our own and then pay our in-house
developers to correct the coding that they did not get right. We fought this
for over a year and ultimately decided to pay them rather than drag this out in
court because we needed this classroom that had been down the whole
time and we needed the source code that they created in order to correct their mistake and they would not release until payment was received. This was basically extortion.
- Extort
- Lie
- Cheat
- Experience in designing AV solutions
- Listening to customers
- Correcting their own mistakes
- Communication
- Attitudes need to be corrected by project managers
If there were negative numbers I would absolutely use them here. I wish I could go below 0.
- They ended up costing us more money to get what we needed than the other companies that ended up being cheaper.
- Our classroom was down for over a year because of their inexperience and lack of follow up
After seeing how they install the equipment we denied the support coverage. I had no faith that they would be able to help us as a company at all.
They have not, they only made things worse.
I should have gone with the company that I was used to working with and had already designed and successfully installed our model classroom. This is the company that intentionally undercut by using subpar hardware that did not even work as requested.
Microsoft Office 2016 (discontinued), Brave, Riskonnect
We fired them after the install. They were never capable of getting the system working correctly so we fired them and hired more competent people.

There was about 5 people that corrected and supported the AVI-SPL system. They had AV and PC skills that outperformed AVI-SPL.
- Teaching
- Conferencing
- Presentations
- We have not been able to use their system as it was never working properly
- We will never use them in the future.
I wish there was negative numbers here. We fired them and will never renew their services.
No
- Price
- Product Features
- Product Usability
They made sure that they were the cheapest to get the job by using equipment that would not work at all for the scope that I gave them.
I would not have given them the quote of a competitor in order for them to select cheaper equipment. They wanted this so that they did not have to spend as much time onsite looking into the existing classroom since their competitor had already spent the time and designed a solution that worked based off of the company that installed the original classroom that was working properly and was to be the model of all future classrooms.

N/A
No, after a year they never even got the install right.
No
Lol
They had us replace the PC three times stating that the PSU was not strong enough to power the USB bus. The last PC had a 1500w PSU. The USB devices kept not working because they had too many USB devices connected. We had to hire another company to come out and fix this mistake as well. They redesigned the solution to get the features that we requested from the beginning and something that would work correctly.
- None
- Everything
- Every time you turn on the system you would cross your fingers. Sometimes it was the microphones that did not work, sometimes the speakers, touchscreen, cameras, lapel mic, monitors. It was always something until we paid someone to come in behind them to correct their mistakes.
No
The system was not scalable with the hardware they ordered.
They took over a year to get our classroom together and it still did not work.

AVI-SPL Great for Global companies
Verified User
C-Level Executive in Corporate
Telecommunications Company, 501-1000 employees
We have a two-fold relationship We are customers as well as suppliers As a supplier we mainly work with the Dubai office - great relationship. As a customer, we work around the world. In Hong Kong, there is a great office In the UK the office is OK In the US we are very disappointed After replying to this survey, you have reinforced my feeling that AVI-SPL has leaps and is bound to improve. The survey portrays that AVI-SPL has a product that it sells. To the best of my experience, AVI-SPL is an AV systems integrator 9Just like my company, Malcolm). They take off-the-shelf hardware and software and provide a working A/V solution (Conference room, auditorium, etc...). It appears that whoever hired you either did not review the questionnaire or is not familiar with the company. On the other hand, for the benefit of the doubt, perhaps I am only familiar with a certain aspect f the company's offering.
- In Dubai we have a 24X7 relationship we can always call and get a reply - we have established a good working relationship to reach the common goal of securing a PO.
- In Hong Kong, we feel that the office goes the extra mile to provide a solution and does not try and add costs for every tiny request. In general, the pricing is also realistic.
- In the USA and the UK the turnaround to our requests takes weeks
- The US has a poor attitude in relation to our knowledge and expertise
- Pricing both in the US and the UK and Germany are very high with huge profit margins
- It does not appear that the US UK and German offices are interested in our business
- It appears that AVI-SPL has to develop a business model of working with System Integrators who is the customer, rather than the end-user being the customer.
AVI-SPL is best suited when they work directly with a huge global entity who are their direct customer AVI-SPL works poorly when they are not working with the end customer - they need to adjust their profit margins accordingly.
- As Magalcom are A/V system integrators and not end customers this question is less relevant
- When being your local system integrator in Israel - it would be helpful if we were brought into the loop at a much earlier stage
We have never used AVI-SPL support

I work with AVI-SPL in many different ways. Sales, service, maintenance, and new projects. I just learned AVI-SPL is a big company all over the world. They always pushing above and beyond their services. Today, I know They work hard to provide products that are limited due to COVID. But in the end, AVI-SPL is always there and provides service when I need them.
- Sale dept when I don't need service but buy products. They always ship any products such as Extron. I get them fast and easy.
- Service call, when something is broken, they schedule fast within 5 days. Minimum downtime in the university classroom.
- Communication, They always response my email and phone call.
- For any new projects, I know it is a tough job for them to develop the scope of work or quotes for any new projects. An estimator from AVI-SPL needs to work closely with the engineer/others to help to develop the project plan.
- When comes to new projects plan, AVI-SPL is weak in this field due to a lack of teamwork. They should be ready to answer my questions instead of waiting for someone in the engineering dept or sales dept to get an answer a week later or sometime a few weeks later. AVI-SPL Project leader should work closely with team members.
Sales dept, I always put down 10, They never fail me. I always get them fast. When any products missing or break or stop working. They contact direct to mfg fast and got them repaired or replaced. That is A+ and saved my time. Maintenance and service, they always on time and very professional. Most of the time, they got the jobs done on the same day. Important that I provided info and any problem that I can think of so AVI-SPL can send the right person for this job. Why number 8 on a scale? New projects that AVI-SPL is weak in this field and needs to improve.
- I have no negative in return//ROI. I always appreciation their hard work in Sales dept.
- I can't blame AVI-SPL for the low supplies due to COVID but I know they are doing their best and gave me an honest answer for shipping time. Every week, they keep checking with their mfg for delivery date.
I use the help desk for service calls a few times. I don't like the look of the website (Help Desk), they are hard to read or try to figure out what they try to tell me. Need to be more friendly and easy to read like the ServiceNow app. When I got comments or any updates, their help desk send separate notes. I prefer to keep it all in one place and easy to find past history.
AVI-SPL helped to get the products that I need for Hyflex/hybrid. Also, they provided info on how fully remote works. Believe it or not. I learned that from YouTube posted by AVI-SPL "
AVISPLinfo". I wished they can do more of that. This will be nice if they can set up in different categories such as education, business, etc.

- All classroom with AV equipment must working in order all the time.
- I have always try to find anything that are powerful and simple technology to use for classroom, etc.

No easy at first.. we are learning and getting better down the road
Some - we have added small pieces of custom code
We are allow to make some adjust better fit for us.
