What we do
AVD Australia is a Professional Systems Integration firm with 35+ years’ experience in Advanced Automation Engineering, Information & Communications Technology systems. We specialise in commercial & high-end residential environments.
To provide the best possible result for our clients, an electrical contracting sector was added over 25 years ago, creating a full service, vertically integrated business model, offering end to end design, installation and post-completion support.
Who we are
Our teams consist of Design, Electrical, Technical and Software engineers who each play their part in driving every aspect of a project forward to ensure complete systems functionality, comprehensive integration, timely delivery and ease of use. These are our key measures for success.
We operate extensively throughout Australia & the world. Together, we are a team of 25+ highly skilled and focused people that provide our clients and project teams with a single point of contact and responsibility for all systems and services & implementation.
Our Practice
Everyone wants a successful project free from headaches, delays and cost blowouts. You can hope for it all you like, but in our experience, no amount of hoping beats a meticulously prepared, proven process. Communication, education and preparation are the backbone of every one of our projects. When you plan for everything, there are no surprises. Have a look at how our hard work will benefit you.
Depending on the role you play in a project, we can assist in different ways. After all, a builder has different requirements to an architect, which differs again from an owner. Below we talk through how we assist in all aspects of a project, and our unique approach with all members involved.
OWNER / Project Manager
Our team of engineers are specialists in everything the Internet of Things (IoT) has to offer. They will ensure perfect harmony between performance and reliability, combined with energy efficiency so you don’t rack up the bills. To find out more click here.

Capabilities Statements
A 'capabilities statement' is a widely used term in the industry, and is often a company's way of explaining what they can do...a company resume as such. At AVD we do this a little differently...graphically.
They are not often shared with clients, more used as a way of demonstrating a company's distinctive competencies to prospective builders, architects, developers, project managers and other industry professionals.
It also allows us to show those 'unspoken projects', the ones we're not allowed to photograph (for which there have been many). The kinds of clients we usually attract don't particularly love publicity, or having their projects strewn all over the internet.
At AVD we create capabilities statements for all our projects, as a way for us to talk about what we do in an easy to understand, one page breakdown. While other companies will present it in page form, this is how we reflect on every project.

Practical Wow
I hear you asking...what is PRACTICAL WOW?
It's our Newspaper, created by our company with over 35 years experience in integration. Astonishingly, we have calculated that as a company we have over 140 years of combined experience working in the industry...wow!
Practical Wow! is intended to shed light on an industry that does not have a clearly defined role in the world of construction. Are we Engineers, Designers, Electricians, Network Engineers, Integrators or just good old Audio Video guys?
Over the years several industries have cross-pollinated and in the new world where everything is connected, there hasn’t yet been a term or set of standards put in place that clearly defines who we are. This had led to anyone being able to call themselves a ‘Smart Home Consultant’, a ‘Home Automation Expert’ or basically anything they like.
In Practical Wow! we describe who we are without the title. We are experienced in all aspects of data collection, data management and data control. What does that mean? Well, in Practical Wow! we tell you in a variety of ways so you can choose which way makes sense to you. Ultimately our message is that not all ‘Integrators’ are equal, not all ‘Home Automation Specialists’ can charge the same and not all ‘Smart Homes’ function the way they are supposed to.
We pride ourselves on knowing when to implement the appropriate technological solution for every occasion. In this instance, we chose the tried and true medium of newsprint. An email would have been easier, but wouldn't have been Practical Wow!
