For field service companies, staying ahead of industry trends is crucial for maintaining a competitive edge and meeting customer demands. Here are four key AV trends to watch:<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1. Surge in hybrid work and conferencing solutions<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The increase in hybrid work models has significantly boosted demand for advanced conferencing solutions.<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/store.frost.com\/global-video-conferencing-devices-market-forecast-to-2026.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> According to Frost &amp; Sullivan, the global conferencing services market is expected to reach a whopping $28.6 billion by 2026.<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Companies are investing heavily in upgrading their AV infrastructure to support seamless communication between remote and in-office employees.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As hybrid work becomes more common, there is a rise in refreshes, break-fix updates, and general AV system upgrades. Field service companies should prepare to take on a high volume of these types of projects that are focused on conferencing systems. This will require staying updated on the latest systems and offering flexible service packages that include regular maintenance and support for these systems.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2. Increasing demand for digital signage<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Digital signage is becoming more sophisticated and widespread due to the increased implementation of advanced AV features. From interactive displays on university campuses to digital menus in quick service restaurants (QSRs), these advanced displays allow businesses across industries to improve customer experience, streamline communication, and increase revenue opportunities.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To meet the growing demand for digital signage, field service companies will benefit from expertise in installing and maintaining these systems. They will also need to understand specific industry needs, such as the interactive requirements in education versus the high-traffic demands of retail. Beyond installation, MSPs should also offer comprehensive support that includes content management and remote troubleshooting.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3. Growth of interactive and cloud-connected AV systems<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Interactive technologies, such as interactive kiosks, are becoming more prevalent in various environments, including retail, airports, and hospitality. Additionally, cloud-connected AV systems enable remote management and real-time updates, reducing the need for on-site interventions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Field service companies must be proficient in the latest interactive technologies and invest in training for remote monitoring and management tools. MSPs should also offer solutions that enhance the interactive experience while ensuring system reliability and uptime.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">4. Shift towards LED displays<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">LED displays are becoming increasingly popular due to their superior image quality and energy efficiency. This trend is particularly noticeable in commercial and public spaces with large-scale digital signage and video walls. Field Nation Vice President of the AV Market, Chris Bianchet, says he\u2019s noticed the demand for LED growing due to the technology\u2019s rapid development. \u201cLED manufacturers continue to make pixels smaller and the resolution higher while also making products easier to install,\u201d says Bianchet.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Field service companies must be proficient in installing and maintaining LED display systems. They must also understand specific requirements for different types of LED installations, from small indoor displays to sizable outdoor signage. Some businesses may prefer energy-efficient LED solutions to align with cost-saving initiatives, requiring MSPs to know how to install and maintain energy-efficient systems.<\/span><\/p>\n<a name=\"meet-the-demand-for-av-with-field-nation\" class=\"fldn-table-of-contents-anchor\"><\/a><h2 id=\"meet-the-demand-for-av-with-field-nation\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Meet the demand for AV with Field Nation<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Field service companies and managed service providers must stay informed about these AV trends to effectively meet customer needs and capitalize on new business opportunities.
