Mission statement: 

We are a custom audio video integration company based in Charlotte, NC with the drive to be the best in the industry, matched by commitment to quality and innovation.

Vision statement: 

CO-DA promises to be Future Forward in our products, our pricing, our designs, our installations, our customer service, our operations, our marketing, and our overall train-of-thought.

We all know technology changes daily. We are always a moment from a new announcement on the newest game-changing technology-device that will revolutionize the way we live. As a custom audio video company, we have to always prepare our customers with the possibility of tech-change. We have to constantly educate ourselves and apply that education to stay relevant. We have to always move ahead and not slow down.

Our products and client projects HAVE to have the ability to be upgraded. To work with any client and not give them the ability to upgrade in the future is pointless. Many companies will waste their time and their customers’ time by installing what they feel comfortable with and is outdated.

Most importantly, we want to be Future Forward-minded because we want our clients to be with us for the long haul. We want to our operate not focused on the immediate job at hand, but the potential job in the future, because that’s how we will continue to thrive. When we focus on making the client happy and keeping them that way, our clients will come back. The best business is word of mouth, and therefore that’s why we chose Future Forward.
