AVAD has announced a partnership with Savant on the Savant Studio and Savant Central Management platforms. For this initiative, AVAD will provide sales, logistics and support services to their network of dealers in the United States and Canada beginning on Aug. 1.

Savant has selected AVAD as an exclusive distribution partner for Savant Central Management and Savant Studio, a new cloud-based configuration and management software. This technology simplifies system configuration, which can be deployed remotely from an iPad and proactively alerts integrators to service opportunities.

Select AVAD dealers are participating in a pilot program to test the Savant Central Management and Savant Studio, prior to the official launch on Aug. 1.

The partnership between AVAD and Savant will provide smart home consumers, including a growing number of first-time automation users, with functionality for control lighting, climate, entertainment and more. Savant will work closely with AVAD to approve new dealers while providing them with a synergistic smart home solution for their customers that is reliable, repeatable, scalable and profitable. AVAD’s 20 locations, which have all received comprehensive training from Savant, will display and stock a full line of Savant products as well as provide support from system design to help expand and bundle solutions. Savant will also be participating in AVAD’s 1-2-3 Rewards Program.

AVAD is here in the United States and here in Canada.
