We’re a Scottish SME specialising in AV and IT infrastructure — design, procurement, installation and support — for public sector and commercial clients across Scotland and the UK. Founded in 2008, we’ve grown almost entirely through repeat business and referrals, which is the kind of growth you only get by turning up properly on every job, not just the first one.
Every person who represents Efficient IS on a site — staff or subcontractor — works to the same standard, covering everything from communication and documentation to health & safety and security. That consistency is deliberate: on public sector and enterprise projects, the person on-site is as much a part of the deliverable as the equipment they’re installing. We treat every supplier, partner and customer the same way too — as a genuine partnership working toward the same outcome, not a transaction. Projects rarely go entirely to plan, so what actually matters is how obstacles get handled: informed, analytical, and focused on removing risk rather than assigning blame — which is the approach that’s let us keep the same clients coming back, project after project, for over 15 years.
We work with the major manufacturers across AV, unified comms and networking — not tied to one product line, so the spec is led by your room and your budget, not a sales target.

See managed support →ISO 9001, ISO 27001, ISO 14001, Cyber Essentials, SafeContractor and more — independently audited, not self-declared.

No handoffs between a design agency, an installer and a support desk — the same team carries a project the whole way through.
Since 2008 — over 15 years delivering AV and IT infrastructure projects, almost entirely through repeat business and referrals rather than cold-won work.
Both, depending on the project and location — but every person who represents us on-site, staff or subcontractor, is held to the same standard of conduct, documentation and health & safety. We don’t dilute quality by handing work off.
We’re based in Scotland and deliver across Scotland and the wider UK, either with our own engineers or a vetted local partner — see our locations for coverage details.
Yes — we hold a place on the Scotland Excel framework, plus ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 27001, Cyber Essentials and SafeContractor, all independently audited rather than self-declared.
