JOSH HASHBARGER, SERVICE ENGINEER (AND “MR. FIX-IT”/”CHEESE”)

Service engineers are a different breed. Driven by a desire to figure out what’s wrong, and fix it, at all costs, these are the folks we get on-site when the show must go on.
When McCann Field Service Engineer Josh Hashbarger zapped himself at age 15 with 50 amps of 277 voltage while working with industrial power distribution equipment, he didn’t give up on electrical repair. Instead, he had found his passion and felt compelled to learn more about this industry.

The Value of Upgrading Existing Audiovisual Installations

McCann doesn’t only design and build all-new audiovisual installations, we are also experts in upgrading existing AV projects in need of a fresh take. We can revamp installations originally built by our team and take on existing systems installed by a different integrator.

You rely on audiovisual systems and installations to work as designed at the moment you need them most. Unplanned downtime not only inhibits productivity but has the potential to disrupt employee and client relationships.
McCann’s commitment to 2nd Day Care keeps you covered, ensuring peak system performance for years to come. In fact, we take aftercare so seriously that a full third of our company’s staff are employed on the Managed Services team.

User interface (UI) and user experience (UX) can make or break the experience when interacting with technology. Successful engineers prioritize UI and UX when designing and implementing technology to have positive experiences. Without UI and UX, users can be left with a disappointing and complicated experience or process to operate their systems.

Concept to Completion: Executive Boardroom

The ability to leverage in-house talent for the entirety of every audiovisual project we take on gives McCann a distinct advantage over competing firms that rely on other providers to complete one or more stages of the project lifecycle. We believe covering every phase of the project leads to continuity, better communication, and ultimately, the delivery of a higher-quality installation that is sure to exceed expectations and function exactly as designed.
