Many folks ask what the “AVD” in Hartwell AVD stands for.

Audio Video Design.

Why Hartwell AVD?

Lots of integration companies do Engineering and Design and most do it quite well, so why use us? 
Here are a few of the reasons.

· Extensive experience in the AV and  Media Control industries.
· Non competitive assistance to integrators. (We don’t sell equipment; only design, management and programming services.)
·  Experience in all aspects of projects. Engineering, Audio, Video, Show Control, Fabrication Direction, On-Site Installation, Opening Assistance, Press Events, Updates of Final Drawings and Operation / Maintenance Manuals.

Hartwell AVD Inc. doesn’t do work for many end users directly—our main client base is the design, installation and integrators of the AV industry.  We provide design and programming services for these companies, many times without the end user knowing that we are outsourced help.

Our integration clients find a significant business advantage to this approach in control over fixed costs such as payroll and insurance during the short term demands of large projects.  When you need us, you call us and we help.  When the project is complete or ready to turn over to the next phase, you decide to allow us to continue the work or resume that work inside your permanent staff.
