UVS secures first Polish contract

Burnley-based Ultimate Visual Solutions (UVS) will equip a Polish energy firm's control room with its specialist video wall technology after securing its first contract in the country.

The contract win follows the appointment of Pawel Religa last year, who was tasked with finding opportunities in the fast-growing audio-visual markets in Central and Eastern Europe.

The contract is the result of detailed online demonstrations of its video wall technology during lockdown, to a client brought to UVS by the audio-visual distributor Business Group Poland.

The new deal will see the Burnley firm supply a control room with UVS Lucidity video wall controller technology. It takes the number of countries that UVS has worked in to 17 in the last two years.

UVS technology will be at the heart of a new operations centre where it will be providing the monitoring of key Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems and other critical data.

Steve Murphy, managing director of UVS, said: "This contract is the first to come as a result of the many proposals we have been doing during lockdown for Business Group in Poland, which have benefitted greatly from our ability to provide online demonstrations.

"The investment we made at the beginning of 2020 in our remote demonstration and remote support capability is proving invaluable and has contributed to a very strong finish to 2020."
