About DAVD

Who We Are

Celebrating 25 years of passion for proven technologies, and their ability to advance the people who embrace them.

DAVD Consulting Engineers (est. 2000) are specialised technology services consultants. We generate intricate design solutions incorporating Audio Visual and Security to Human Care and Communications Technologies (ICT). Our designs are tailored, product-agnostic, and seamlessly integrated into their environments.

 

With 25+ years of experience, engineering qualifications, industry certifications, and enterprise-level expertise, we create solutions that work flawlessly from day one.

 

We collaborate closely with clients and project teams from concept to completion, often staying involved post-handover to ensure a smooth transition. Our upfront diligence means projects are frequently delivered with zero variations to the contract.

 

Like interior designers complement architects, we complete the services engineers’ scope, closing any expertise gaps, resulting in comprehensive technology-driven solution.

 

Let us help you create smarter, more efficient spaces with technology that works as hard as you do.

DAVD worked very closely with the university’s AV department, collaborating on design ideas, keeping it informed of project progress and issues, and although not directly contracted by the university, always made it feel as if it were his company’s primary client. DAVD’s close attention to detail, thorough knowledge of audio visual technologies, and willingness to understand the specialised requirements of their clients, has resulted in a very successful project outcome for the university. I have no hesitation in recommending DAVD to those requiring professional AV consultancy and skilled project management.
