Gaming and Casino AV Systems

Gaming requires technology to run 24/7. Patrons have high standards. Audio and video systems require design with an understanding of the primary objective. Sound systems must vary based on ambient gaming noise so that background music levels are always present but not overbearing. Video systems are ubiquitous and must be both reliant and completely integrated into building finishes.

The gaming industry does not suffer from lack of budget. Instead, the challenge is always lack of time. Construction nearly always starts before the A/E processes is completed and requires an AV integrator with strong design / build capacity. More importantly, AV has the ability to cause major harm to a project, based on the strength or weakness of their project management.

Do early budgeting and create infrastructure that is flexible, because things will change

Build systems that are robust and fault tolerant, because they need to run 24/7

Ambient microphones can be used to dynamically adjust volume levels, based on occupancy

Obliviously, budget for your project depends on the exact functionality of the room, but over the years, we’ve collected a lot of historical data. At the beginning of every project, we sit down with stakeholders, ask questions and listen intently. Amazingly, this is so rare, that we’ve developed a saying, “Real audio experts listen first”.
AV System Cost Allocation

There are three different ways to approach your project. We can provide any one of the four methods below to meet your needs.
Consultant led bid process
In this method, we act as a pure design consultant. We will provide a bid specification and construction documents. We will not bid on the project, so we can assist the owner with bid selection process. After the contract is awarded, we can provide Construction Administration, Programming, and Final Commissioning. This is typical for government work and projects over $1M. Our fee for this service is typically 5-10% of AV project budget.
Design / Build (D/B) process
In this method, we provide a turnkey solution. Initially we provide a cost for design services at a reduced fee. Bid process requires a large number of contract documents to protect the owner from sub-par firms. This is avoided in D/B process. We can also move significantly faster. Lack of competition is a concern, so we provide extremely transparent cost breakdowns. This method is well suited to small and medium projects, especially fast-track.
Hybrid consultant process
In this method, we provide full contract documents, but participate in the bid. This can be a good compromise between traditional bid and design / build. We sometimes start with design / build and then bid the project if there is concern over the cost. In this case, we just increase our design fee to cover the additional expense. This is important, because the most dangerous route for an owner or contractor is to simply issue an equipment list for bid.
AVaaS
This is the most rapidly growing form of project delivery . In this method, we deliver a true turnkey solution of equipment, installation, training, support, and maintenance at a fixed monthly cost. Capital outlay is reduced or eliminated and we take all responsibility for system monitoring and maintenance. After a fixed period (typically 5 years), we provide an option to update the equipment at no cost so technology stays up to date.

First time buyers of AV Installation services tend to focus far too much on total cost vs equipment lists and end up with massive headaches on their project. AV as a box of parts is useless. These savings are quickly eaten up by schedule delays, change orders, and coordination issues. If you’re dealing with an AV Integrator that only wants to talk about an equipment list, it’s time to run for the hills.
Here is a list of the most common issues in AV. These derail projects and cause users to get frustrated. Click on any one of these to see how we address them as part of our VIBE Design Process
