Audio Visual Project List

Below is the list of requested projects that our Audio Visual (AV) Staff are working on. This information is provided to allow Project Requesters and other unit stakeholders insight into our current project load and the status of any given AV project.

Our AV team are still within the first year and are continuing to determine project work capacity. They also report significant, 6-18 month delays from hardware vendors on ordered equipment. If you have questions about a requested project or believe the status of your project is incorrect, please email engrit-help@illinois.edu.

AV Project Status Definitions

Not Started: Project has been requested but has not been assigned to AV Staff for active work.

On Hold (per Customer/EngrIT): used when a  Project Requester or AV Staff has requested a started project remain in queue but not in active work, this may happen due to changes in priorities or resources occur once project work has begun.

Awaiting Needs Gathering: first step of a project, our AV Staff meet with Project Requester and stakeholders to document needs and expectations for the project, preferred timelines, etc.

Design Phase: AV Staff take the needs documentation and crafts a design for the AV project.

Awaiting Design Approval: the design is sent to the Project Requester for review and approval, revisions and final approval will happen in this stage.

Awaiting Purchase Approval
: upon design approval, our AV Staff will put together a purchase proposal and present it to the Project Requester for approval.

Awaiting Purchased Hardware
: once approved the purchase order will be placed and the wait for the hardware delivery begins. As of AY22-23, the time frame for this stage has been significantly impacted by supply chain problems and can be 6-18 months.

Awaiting Facilities Work
: Upon receipt of ordered supplies, work is schedule with Facilities and Services and/or facilities managers to complete any facilities work in the project space.

Scheduled Install
: Installation is scheduled for after facilities work is completed.

Complete
: Installation is functionally complete.
