On what basis should the specific capabilities of AV systems in the Program Report be established?

The specific capabilities of AV systems in the Program Report should be established based on the identified needs of the end user. This approach ensures that the AV solution is tailored to meet the specific requirements and expectations of those who will be using the system. Understanding the end users’ needs allows for a more effective design and implementation of AV systems, addressing aspects such as functionality, usability, and overall user experience.

By focusing on the end user's needs, stakeholders can ensure that the selected technology effectively serves its intended purpose, enhancing productivity, collaboration, and user satisfaction. Additionally, aligning system capabilities with user needs can lead to more efficient workflows and improved performance, making the investment in AV technology more worthwhile.

While other factors, such as site surveys, market offerings from integrators, and manufacturer recommendations, may play a role in the AV system’s overall design and selection process, the primary foundation should always rest on the specific requirements of the end user. This ensures relevance and effectiveness in the solutions provided.
