Challenge
The elementary school required a comprehensive upgrade to their AV technology in both the training and huddle rooms. The primary objectives included:
- Decommissioning existing AV equipment: All outdated equipment had to be removed, with asset tags and serial numbers recorded for review. The client would then decide whether to store or e-waste the items.
- Upgrading AV systems: Installation of cutting-edge AV equipment to meet current standards and enhance usability.
- Ensuring a safe environment: As the site was an active elementary school, extra care was required to ensure safety and minimize disruption.
Solution
We implemented a phased approach to execute a seamless upgrade for both rooms.
1. Site Survey & Planning
- Conducted an initial site survey and planning meeting on Monday, December 2, 2024, with the client to finalize hardware locations and address design questions.
- Reviewed provided IFC drawings, scope documents, and site photos to ensure alignment with project goals.
2. Decommissioning & Recording
- Carefully removed all existing AV equipment from the training and huddle rooms.
