The Brief
JTP were moving offices and needed to install high-end technology to match the ambitious headquarter relocation. The project had to unify communications using latest technologies, maximise efficiency in the meeting spaces with open collaboration and content sharing for teams anywhere.
The Solution
Following an initial discussion and a Barco ClickShare demo, Carillion undertook a site review of their existing office space and newly acquired locations including a listed building in London’s docklands. Carillion installed a mix of Large format Displays, Barco Clickshare wireless presentation, Skype for Business web conferencing integration and Crestron system management to ensure the highest levels of communication could be achieved through the technology. Key installations included:
- Wall-mounted large format displays
- Presentation audio from speakers
- Web conferencing VIa Logitech Mic
- Web conferencing USB Mic and PTZ Camera
- Wall mounted array microphones
- Control via intuitive button wall keypad
- Wall-mounted array microphones
- Control via an intuitive wall keypad
The Outcome
As part of the successful completion of the spaces, Carillion provided training sessions at the new offices. This has seen the meeting rooms used extensively. The initial opening was a success with the HUB spaced filled to capacity.
