Global Partners
The Global Presence Alliance (GPA) is a framework of world-wide audiovisual and videoconferencing industry expertise, committed to sharing best practice to ensure a high quality and consistent customer experience, world-wide.
Created by Impact and The Whitlock Group, the GPA was formed to meet the demand from large, global organisations who recognise that audiovisual and videoconferencing technology is now an essential business tool; proven to reduce cost, improve efficiency and communication.
As a Global Presence Alliance customer organisations will benefit from:
- Access to a local specialist systems integrator
- Sharing Innovations / Best Practices
- Standardisation of system design and programming
- Global project management
- Implementation which conforms to global standards
- Global pricing support for manufacturer’s framework agreements
