Headquarters Audio Visual Services

What Headquarters Audio Visual Services does

Headquarters Audio Visual Services, Inc. is a privately held event technology and AV rental company founded in 1989 and headquartered at 53 Headquarters Plaza in Morristown, New Jersey. The company provides professional-grade audio/visual equipment rental and on-site technical support to corporate meeting planners, with a customer base that explicitly includes Fortune 500 companies across the United States. Its geographic focus is the New Jersey, New York, and eastern Pennsylvania tri-state corridor, where it operates an owned fleet of delivery vans and supports venue coordination, site surveys, and on-site technical staffing.

The core product portfolio is organized around a 'Total Technology Solution' positioning that bundles traditional AV (projectors, HD screens, encrypted wireless microphones, robotic cameras, lighting) with IT infrastructure services (Wi-Fi planning, bandwidth provisioning, tiered connectivity options including a dedicated 'Presenter Code' bandwidth feature). The company operates a Public Videoconference Suite — one of the first in Northern New Jersey, established in 1998 — and supports hybrid meetings across Zoom, Microsoft Teams, and Google Meet. A separate subsidiary brand, TvStudio.com, extends the offering into managed video production including multi-camera capture, live streaming, graphics, music, and teleprompter services. Equipment is sourced through authorized dealer relationships with major AV brands including Da-Lite, Draper, Comprehensive, Kramer, NEC, Shure, Panasonic, and Eiki.

The business model is primarily project-based rental and professional services revenue, with quote-based pricing (not publicly disclosed), day-to-day equipment rental rates, multi-year contract terms kicking in at $10K+ rentals, and tiered Wi-Fi subscriptions. Go-to-market is direct and consultative, with relationship-driven field sales targeting enterprise meeting planners, supported by a modest digital footprint (company website, Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, newsletter, and TvStudio.com). Revenue figures are not publicly disclosed, and the company has no disclosed funding rounds, M&A activity, or leadership changes.
