Complete Control System Solutions
At Ford AV, we build control systems that make audio, video, lighting, and room management simple and predictable, no matter which room you walk into. We standardize the controls so once users learn one space, others are the same or similar. Startup and shutdown can happen automatically. Settings adjust depending on whether it’s a meeting, presentation, or video call. And if your organization has multiple rooms, buildings, or campuses, the same design applies everywhere for ease of use.
Your team spends less time wrestling with technology and more time collaborating. Facility & IT staff gain remote visibility and control, so you can monitor system health, reduce wasted energy, and simplify maintenance across all sites. Ford AV engineers carefully integrate the latest control system solutions and technologies to optimize how your systems are used, boost efficiency, reduce waste, and improve usability.
