BUYER GUIDE
How to choose a audio system integrator in Cambridge
Eight criteria most procurement and facilities leads use when shortlisting AV partners for audio system. Strive AV passes all eight.
Locally-based engineering presence
A Cambridge-area engineer reaches site the same day. A supplier driving from a distant base does not.
Strive AV: Engineering team based in Cambridge
Independent ISO certifications
ISO 27001 (info security), 9001 (quality) and 14001 (environmental) are the minimum bar for any regulated-sector buyer.
Strive AV: Certified to ISO 27001, 9001, 14001 and 45001
Public-sector framework supplier
Crown Commercial Service supplier status removes the procurement risk for public-sector buyers and works for many corporate buyers too.
Strive AV: Crown Commercial Service supplier
AVIXA member
AVIXA is the global trade body for AV integration. Membership signals adherence to standards procurement teams can verify independently.
Strive AV: AVIXA member since founding (1999)
Audio Systems specialism
Look for an integrator with documented audio system deployments at the scale you're commissioning, not generic AV experience repackaged.
Strive AV: Documented audio system case studies, certified hardware partner
Fixed-price quoting after a free survey
Anything else is a budget-creep risk. The site survey, design and fixed quote should be at no charge.
Strive AV: Free Cambridge site survey, fixed-price proposal
Ongoing SLA-backed support
AV is a multi-year commitment. Confirm 24/7 helpdesk, remote monitoring and on-site response SLAs are in scope, not a separate vendor.
Strive AV: 24/7 manned helpdesk, on-site engineers
27 years of trading history
Founded 1999. Long-trading suppliers carry installation backlogs and warranty obligations honoured across that time, which short-trading suppliers cannot.
Strive AV: Founded 1999, East Grinstead
