What key challenges were faced?

We encountered numerous challenges during the installation process –
a) Meeting strict deadlines. We had to expedite project execution in 15 days while working within limited time slots as the installation took place inside the TAJ Palace Hotel.
b) Additionally, coordinating a large team in a confined space where other teams were simultaneously operating posed a significant challenge.
c) Since the space was small with ceiling height of just 8 feet, designing and selecting the right components to meet client expectations of state of the art system was also a big challenge


How were those challenges resolved?

We carefully created a project schedule and met with other services team heads to create a meticulous time table to make sure we all work as a team to meet the deadlines. Arranging the material in such short period of time and space constraints at site for keeping the material was also managed with multiple rounds of transportation vehicle to and fro from our warehouse.

Designing the system to ensure we fulfil all requirements without compromising in the result was achieved through out of the box thinking and coordination with the architect team to ensure we get right locations for Ceiling mic tiles, cameras and speakers as per what is needed. Location of the rack just outside the hall was also very typical and we managed to convince the team for smooth operations.


How has your work helped the client?

The system enables the client to conduct high profile Video conferencing , lectures and presentations by Elite speakers to local and global audiences. It also enables them to record and live stream the lectures to all the students of the university

Through state of the art AV system , client is able to showcase their strengths of the university to Education ministry and other Global universities.
