How
ASI Started
Australian Systems Integration Pty Ltd (ASI) was established
in August 1988, (previously known as Broadcast Technical Services Pty
Ltd) stated by Graeme Paech with over 37 years experience in Broadcast
Television, Radio, Theatre, Conferencing and related Audio Visual Industries.
In the 80's, Graeme noted the absence of professionally trained Broadcast
Engineers that were available in the freelance market to look after the
engineering needs of the medium to small Video and Audio Post Production
houses.
The first three clients were, The EVS Group, Television Makers and Editape
(now known as Zero One Zero). It didn't take long before many of the Audio
Post houses came on board.
ASI Now
Since 1988 ASI has successfully
completed an impressive range of high profile projects for both Government
and Corporate clients in Australia, United Kingdom, United Arab Emirates
and Asia.
Independence
As
ASI is not commercially connected to any single equipment supplier, we
can reassure our clients that all recommendations made by us are independent
and in the best interest of the client based on functionality, price and
performance.
Design
& Documentation Standards
ASI prides it’s self as being a
world class leader in Consultancy, Project Management, Design and Installation
practices utilising the latest drawing techniques and software packages.
All projects follow strict safe working
practices, OH&S, Site Induction and Security. As a testament to this,
ASI has a 100% clean track record for all projects we have either managed
of been connected with.
