Integrator Survey Examines the Latest Trends and Opportunity Areas

The team at SSI’s sister publication, Commercial Integrator, has created an eight-question survey focusing on some of the most topical issues in the commercial AV world and they’re seeking your help to get the most comprehensive data possible.

We ask that you take our survey to help your fellow integrators, consultants and technology solution providers better understand the state of the AV industry today.

Nowadays, labor-related issues are a hot topic in the integration community. Our survey touches on the most marketable and in-demand skills for AV technicians working in 2023.

For example, we ask about whether integrators are most interested in attracting technicians with strength in cable pulling, networking, programming or another essential skill.

Moreover, we ask about whether integrator respondents’ firms have more or less demand for subcontracted labor these days, as opposed to in prior years.

What’s more, we inquire about how survey respondents break down their business in terms of categories of project. Specifically, we ask about integrators’ relative percentage of projects in the following categories: commercial AV, residential AV, security, structured cabling and IT/networking.

Commercial Integrator is curious about the extent to which today’s technology solutions providers are diversifying their business by delving into projects outside of their core wheelhouse. This survey will help provide the answer

Survey Examines Commercial AV Opportunity Areas

Another big goal for Commercial Integrator’s survey is to examine key opportunity areas in the AV integration channel. We’re curious which hot trend on the technology side will have the biggest impact in 2024.

In particular, we ask survey respondents about AV-over-IP and network-based systems, direct-view LED technology and artificial intelligence (AI). What’s more, we inquire about applications/use cases that are getting a lot of attention.

We hope, with this survey, to understand whether the ripest opportunity for integration businesses centers on esports, Microsoft Teams Rooms, live-entertainment applications, the ascendant work-from-anywhere trend or something else.

Completing this survey will take three minutes or less, and your voice will help the integration community understand the key issues of the day. Please lend your voice and help us shine a light on the developments that affect your integration business.

Welcome to Gary Pearce Home Services' authoritative guide on Future of Dental and Medical Practices CCTV in 2026 - UK trends and technology . 1. The Regulatory Landscape for Clinical CCTV in 2026 As we move through 2026, medical and dental practices across the UK face unprecedented scrutiny regarding patient privacy and physical security. Clinical environments require a delicate balance: maintaining absolute patient confidentiality while ensuring robust protection against theft, vandalism, and false liability claims. The Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) has updated its strict codes of practice to reflect advances in AI-driven edge surveillance. For dental and medical practices to remain compliant, any newly deployed CCTV system must strictly adhere to the ICO CCTV Code , UK GDPR , and the industry-recognised BS EN 62676 standard for video surveillance systems. To achieve SSAIB Grade 2 or Grade 3 certification, practice owners must ensure that security data i...

The 8K Resolution Era: Why Forensic CCTV is Now the Residential Standard

# The 8K Resolution Era: Why Forensic CCTV is Now the Residential Standard For years, 4K (8-Megapixel) resolution was considered the "ceiling" for residential security. But as we move into 2026, the demand for **Forensic Clarity** has pushed 8K (32-Megapixel) sensors into the mainstream. At **CCTV Systems**, we are seeing a massive shift towards 8K installations for homeowners who require more than just "vague shapes"

Why Weapons Detection Systems Fail Without Proper Planning

The weapons detection market has exploded over the past three years, driven by heightened security concerns across every vertical market. Healthcare facilities, educational institutions, corporate campuses, and entertainment venues are all investing in advanced weapons screening technology. For security integrators, this represents significant opportunity – and significant risk. Unlike traditional security systems that can be “set and forget,” weapons detection implementations succeed or fail based on factors that extend far beyond technical installation. The difference between a profitable, referral-generating project and a costly support nightmare often comes down to understanding challenges that don’t appear in any technical manual. The False Promise of “Plug and Play” Vendors market their systems as simple to deploy and operate. The reality is more complex. Advanced detection technology may be sophisticated, but successful implementation requires integrators to think beyond netw...
