PSCo Assessment Centre continues to add value to partners
Assessment Centre is re-launched with new technology zones, including super high resolution LED
Reading, UK, 2 December 2013 – Trade-only AV specialist PSCo today announced another successful re-launch of its Assessment Centre following an open house event on 27th and 28th November in Reading. Over 100 visitors attended the event to view the latest technologies on show, including five distinctive videowall configurations, four varying sized videowall display panels, three LCD models and two LED displays with the smallest pixel pitch in the UK, all in one location.
“It’s been a fantastic few days and a great result in terms of the number of genuinely excited visitors wanting to view the latest technologies and find out more from the team,” said Stuart Holmes, CEO of PSCo. “We’ve invested over £500,000 since the centre’s initial launch last October. It’s been a truly great year and the Assessment Centre is one of our proudest market development achievements, receiving over 30 visitors per month on average. Our goal is to refresh the centre every six months to ensure our trade partners, their end-user customers and consultants continue to be able to see, touch and compare these new technologies side-by-side in an unbiased environment.”
The third Assessment Centre re-launch follows hot on the trail of PLASA where PSCo first introduced ‘The PSCo LED Experience’ and unveiled their range of super high resolution LED displays. They were subsequently brought to the Assessment Centre to show to PSCo partners in the LED zone with PSCo specialists at hand to answer questions and offer technical advice. The PSCo LED Experience is available to partners for rental and permanent installation now, with a range from 1.6mm – 3.75mm and many other indoor and outdoor products.
The Assessment Centre was also revamped to allow customers to truly assess and compare each technology in specific zones, including Plasma, Micro Tile, LCD, Videowall, Large Format and LED.
The zones include:
Plasma Zone – 2x2 PSCo’s 60” in landscape and 1x2 Orion in portrait
Micro Tile Zone – omniSHAPES and Samsung UD22C
LCD Zone – 2x3 Samsung UD46 in portrait, 3x1 Sharp 60” in portrait, 2x2 LG 55” in landscape, 2x2 Samsung UD55 in landscape and 3x3 NEC X463UN in landscape
LFD Zone – Samsung 95” in landscape and LG 84” in landscape
LED Zone – 1.9mm and 3.75mm pixel pitch LED
PSCo created the Assessment Centre as a one-of-a-kind facility where channel partners, end-users and consultants can assess new technologies in a completely unbranded environment; ensuring technologies are assessed rather than pre-judged. Visitors can make an informed decision on an array of products from leading manufacturers, set up to mimic real-life applications with the option to test their own content for an even more realistic view.
Stuart continued, “This facility is designed to remove risk for our partners who adopt new and innovative technologies. They are able to visit the Assessment Centre and utilise it as a test site, viewing the technology first hand, assessing, testing and talking through the product in full with our team.”
