From the main chamber to the library noticeboard, we design, procure and support AV across the full civic estate — accessible through the Scotland Excel framework without a full tender.

Falkirk Council needed its Committee Chamber’s AV replaced and operational in time for a set of emergency meetings it couldn’t postpone — wireless conference and electronic voting, auto-tracking cameras, and live streaming to YouTube, delivered on time and on budget.
Read the case studyA Vissonic wireless conference and voting system across every delegate position, Avonic auto-tracking PTZ cameras, a dedicated DSP for Teams and public streaming, and acoustic treatment throughout — the same combination we run for the Scottish Courts and Tribunals Service, checked by Falkirk’s own site visit before award. The Council has since commissioned a second system for a further meeting room.
See our dedicated Scotland Excel Framework page for the full process — in short, framework-approved suppliers like Efficient IS can be engaged directly without running a full OJEU/FTS tender.
Yes — for authorities outside Scotland, we work either as a direct supplier or via partner frameworks such as Computacenter, with local delivery through our UK-wide install network.
Yes — a single support and maintenance contract can cover chambers, offices, libraries and community buildings across your estate.
Tell us what you’re trying to fix and we’ll tell you honestly what’s realistic.
Yes. Chamber installations are planned around scheduled sittings and committee dates rather than assuming the room is free whenever it suits us, the same approach used for scheduling school and college projects around term dates.
The framework covers AV across the full civic estate, not only the chamber, so libraries, leisure centres and community hubs can be procured through the same route as a committee room upgrade rather than needing a separate arrangement for each building type.
Yes, by prior agreement. Support contracts and larger rollouts are commonly structured to fit public sector budgeting and financial year planning, splitting a project across two financial years where that suits how the council’s budget is approved.
In most cases yes, without necessarily replacing the whole AV system. Whether existing cameras, audio and control equipment can support the required streaming standard is confirmed during a site survey, and where it can’t, only the parts genuinely needed for webcasting are upgraded rather than the whole room being redone.
