Project Management for AV Professionals
Note: This is a three-day course from 8:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m., June 13 -15.
This course deepens participants’ understanding of the four major project management phases within AV and systems integration projects. It is valuable not only for Project Managers and Coordinators but also for professionals in Sales, Engineering, Installation, Operations, Service, and support roles such as Purchasing and Warehouse. The program clarifies the responsibilities and authority of key stakeholders including clients, contractors, consultants, engineers, technicians, subcontractors, and service teams, while highlighting the importance of organizational alignment and collaboration.
Participants explore core project management concepts including project definitions, roles and responsibilities, and key project elements such as scope, quality, time, cost, risk, and profitability. The course covers the full project lifecycle: initiating and proposal development, needs analysis, site surveys, estimates, contracts, post-award planning, scheduling, procurement, risk management, execution, monitoring, change control, commissioning, transition to service, and project closeout.
Additional topics include managing multiple simultaneous projects, communication planning, performance metrics, conflict resolution, decision-making, and continuous improvement through lessons learned. Although designed primarily for commercial systems integrators, the course also provides value to technology management organizations in corporate and higher education environments.
