What AVM Solutions does

AVM Solutions (UK) Ltd is a privately-held, UK-based bespoke audio-visual consultancy and integration specialist founded around 2008 and headquartered in Farnworth, Bolton, with an additional engineering and development office in India established in 2017. The company designs, delivers, and supports workplace audio-visual and smart building environments for enterprise and public-sector clients across corporate, education, retail, public sector, and hospitality verticals, with named customers including Gymshark, NHS, Disney, NEC Group, Peak AI, Autocab (Uber Group), Campfield, Mott MacDonald, Bruntwood, University of Bolton, Quiz, Liberty Blume, and Reach PLC.

The company's core offering spans four service lines: AV Consultancy (early-stage engagement to define requirements before technology selection), Bespoke AV Design & Build (custom system design with detailed design packs and installation), Support & Maintenance (ongoing training, proactive maintenance, account management, and remote troubleshooting), and Content Management Services (24/7 managed digital signage content with integrations like live traffic, wayfinding, and gamification). Underlying technology comprises video walls, digital signage, audio systems, enterprise IPTV, video conferencing (Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Workspace), podcast studio solutions, and smart building technology. AVM's proprietary asset is Digispace, an in-house smart building platform developed from 2021 and launched commercially in 2023, delivering space management, occupancy sensing, wayfinding, and environmental controls. Technology supply partnerships span Appspace, BrightSign, Bose, Clickshare, Polycom/Lifesize, and ADT Workspace for architectural co-design.

AVM generates revenue primarily through project-based professional services for AV design and build, supplemented by recurring support and maintenance contracts and managed content services. Pricing is bespoke and quote-based given the project nature of the work. The go-to-market is direct enterprise field sales with a consultative, early-involvement model and a reported 96% partner retention rate. The company is founder-owned and bootstrapped with no external funding rounds identified, and is positioning itself as a broader technology business in 2025 with an expanding development team and a flagship UK partner event, Techknow, introduced in 2023.
