Savant Outstanding Performance Award: Amsterdam 2019

GLO Audio Visual received a Savant Outstanding Performance Award in Amsterdam in 2019. The engraved award celebrates the team’s work with Savant and forms part of the project experience supporting our integrated-home installations.

What the award records

The award is a moment we are proud to share from GLO Audio Visual’s Savant history. The most rewarding part of that work is seeing a completed home come together: music, cinema and room controls that the client enjoys using.

What matters on a Savant project today

A successful Savant installation begins with the experience required in each room, then defines the displays, audio zones, sources, lighting or shading interfaces, network, control points and equipment locations. The system should be designed around the household rather than around the largest possible product list.

• Confirm exactly which rooms and functions are included.
• Identify the current Savant host, controllers and software requirements.
• Coordinate the network and equipment rack as part of the core design.
• Record third-party interfaces and the responsibility for each one.
• Agree programming, testing, training and post-handover support.
• Ask for subscriptions, licences and exclusions to be stated clearly.

Why the network and handover are essential

Modern control systems depend on a stable network and accurate project information. Switch configuration, Wi-Fi coverage, IP addressing, device discovery and remote support all need to be considered. At handover, the homeowner should receive the agreed documentation, understand the main controls and know how support will be provided.
