Independent Consulting in AV, Control, and Smart Technology Integration

Consultant Services, Experience, and Capabilities

Human-Centered AV Design with Real-World Expertise

DCH Technology Consulting provides independent consulting services for audiovisual, control, and smart technology systems, focusing on thoughtful integration, intentional design, and long-term usability. Our services are grounded in a deep understanding of both technology and the human experience, ensuring the systems we design support how people work, communicate, and collaborate.

We specialize in helping owners, architects, and design teams develop environments where audiovisual systems feel natural, intuitive, and fully integrated into the architectural vision.

Core Services

Audiovisual System Design & Documentation:

Full design services from conceptual planning through construction, including needs assessment, schematic design, system drawings, signal flow, equipment specifications, and coordination documents.

Room Planning and Layout Coordination

We collaborate early in the design process to support room geometry, seating orientation, ceiling infrastructure, and architectural finishes that align with AV functionality. This helps avoid costly redesigns and enables the intentional placement of displays, loudspeakers, microphones, and control elements—minimizing fatigue, maximizing clarity, and simplifying long-term support.

Hybrid Meeting Environments

We design spaces that support equity between in-room and remote participants. Camera positioning, audio pickup, lighting coordination, and system tuning are planned with the end experience in mind—so everyone is clearly seen, heard, and engaged.

Control System Design & Workflow Integration

Systems are developed around how users actually interact with spaces—not just what the technology is capable of. We collaborate with audiovisual contractors and project teams to develop user interfaces that are clean, consistent, and intuitive. This approach reduces support needs and supports long-term user confidence and satisfaction.

Technology Evaluation & Owner Representation

We bring a manufacturer-agnostic perspective, helping clients evaluate systems and select the right technologies for their environment, workflows, and goals. We combine emerging tech, legacy infrastructure, and user expectations into cohesive, practical solutions.

Smart Technology Integration

From AVoverIP to occupancy-based control and data-driven scheduling systems, we help clients incorporate smart technologies that align with energy, workflow, and operational goals.

Our Approach Delivers Value

We don’t just deliver system designs—we deliver environments that feel effortless to use and fully aligned with their purpose.

- Reduced end-user fatigue through strategic sightlines, legibility, and audio coverage
- Increased system longevity and flexibility through scalable, adaptable planning
- Fewer change orders and support calls thanks to early, informed coordination
- Technology that enhances architecture, not competes with it

At DCH Technology Consulting, every recommendation we make is based on experience, research, and the real-world dynamics of how people use technology. Our goal is simple: to help you create smart, resilient spaces that work beautifully for everyone who steps inside.
