USIS AudioVisual Systems

What USIS AudioVisual Systems does

USIS AudioVisual Systems (USIS AV) is a private audiovisual systems integration firm headquartered in Pearl River, New York, and operating as a division of USIS, a third-generation, privately-owned technology integrator with roots dating back to 1924 and parent-level revenue of approximately $200 million. Founded in 2012, USIS AV designs, engineers, installs, services, and supports software- and hardware-based AV solutions for enterprise clients across corporate offices, hospitality and coworking venues, healthcare, education, museums, and cultural institutions. The firm has been named to Systems Contractor News's Top 50 AV Systems Integrators list every year since 2012 (13 consecutive years as of 2025) and has held the AVIXA APEX Provider of Excellence designation since 2016.

The company's product portfolio spans the full AV lifecycle, including video collaboration and conferencing (Zoom Rooms, Microsoft Teams, Cisco Webex, Crestron control), sound and audio systems (background music, paging, sound masking, high-performance audio for venues like the Rockefeller Center Rink), digital signage and video walls, town hall and divisible-room systems, conference room and employee amenity AV, and contactless/frictionless AV experiences. In October 2024, USIS AV launched "Insight," a unified remote monitoring platform spanning AV, security, and other networked devices, extending the firm into recurring managed services. Service delivery is supported by CTS-, PMI-, OSHA-, and BICSI RCDD-certified staff, and the firm joined the USAV Alliance (PSA division) in July 2021 to extend geographic and project reach through a global network of independent AV integrators.

USIS AV's go-to-market is enterprise field sales targeting corporate, hospitality, healthcare, museum, and education buyers, augmented by direct inbound via dedicated sales and service email addresses and a content-marketing engine (4-Word Thinking blog, LinkedIn, Instagram, Facebook, X, and presence at ISE and InfoComm). Revenue is generated through three streams: one-time design and integration project fees, recurring AV service and support contracts (including remote monitoring via Insight), and pass-through hardware and equipment sales. Notable enterprise projects include Convene Bishopsgate in London (40,000 sq ft, 400+ seat capacity), the National Baseball Hall of Fame Grand Stand Theater renovation, 30 Rockefeller Plaza lobby audio, Tishman Speyer CME Center Chicago, WeWork, Louis Vuitton East 57th, SCOR HQ, and multisite healthcare rollouts for Prenuvo, Neko Health, and Biograph. The firm serves primarily US clients with an emerging UK presence.
