BUDGET: 11 crore INR and above (USD1.48 million and above)
PROJECT OVERVIEW
Biswa Bangla University is a modern liberal arts university. The Campus has six academic buildings with major areas identified for AV solution deployment: Classrooms, Auditorium, Conference Room, labs & meeting rooms. Vallect was trusted with the entire AV, IT & ELV Solution, which followed the following philosophy:
Requirement Assessment
System Design, Planning & Procurement
Installation & Integration
Testing & User Training
WHAT DID THE CLIENT WANT TO ACHIEVE?
Seamless Integration and Compatibility
The client expected the AV system to seamlessly integrate with existing infrastructure and technology.
User-Friendly Interface
Per their team, the AV system should be intuitive and easy for educators, students, and administrators.
Scalability and Future-Proofing
Clients expected the AV system to be scalable and easily upgradable to accommodate future needs and new technologies.
Cost-Effectiveness & ROIWhile clients seek advanced AV solutions; they also expect cost-effectiveness and a clear return on investment in the solutions deployed.

WHAT KEY CHALLENGES WERE FACED?
System Complexity:
Modern AV systems can be incredibly complex, often involving a blend of hardware, software, and network components. This complexity can lead to difficulties in installation, configuration, and maintenance.
Integration with Legacy Systems:
One of the primary challenges in AV integration is ensuring that all components are compatible with each other and the legacy systems.
Coordination:
Due to the multiple integration services involved, coordinating was a key challenge from a project execution standpoint. Lack of coordination can drastically affect the timelines and general execution.
User Experience and Training:
Even the most advanced AV systems can fail if end-users find them difficult to operate. User experience is crucial, especially in environments where non-technical users will frequently interact with the system.
HOW WERE THOSE CHALLENGES RESOLVED?
We simplified wherever possible. We opted for integrated solutions that bundle multiple functionalities into a single system. Comprehensive training for the installation team and end-users can also help manage system complexity.
Conducted a thorough site survey and audited existing systems before starting the integration. Plan for potential compatibility issues and have contingency plans in place.
We are a one-stop system integration solution provider. From AV integration to ELV and IT infrastructure, we deployed all the services, which ensured the customer team had to interact with just vendors for all their infrastructure technology integration services rather than coordinate with multiple vendors, creating a hassle-free experience.
Designed user-friendly interfaces and provided comprehensive training sessions for all users. Developed easy-to-follow manuals and quick-start guides. Continuous support and feedback loops ensure the system meets user needs and can be adapted as required.
HOW HAS YOUR WORK HELPED THE CLIENT?
The installation elevated the institute experience and enabled the users to have:
Enhanced Learning Experience
Improved Accessibility
Modernized Infrastructure
Enhanced Student Participation
Teacher Support and Efficiency
WHAT ARE YOU MOST PROUD OF ABOUT THE PROJECT?
BBU is a prestigious university that entrusted Vallect with not just AV integration but the entire infrastructure system integration services, which we delivered on time, making their experience smooth and hassle-free.
After months of meticulous planning, installation, and testing, the day finally arrived for the system to go live. As the team gathered in the newly transformed auditorium, there was a sense of anticipation. The screens flickered to life, displaying crisp, vibrant images and was inaugurated by the Governor of West Bengal.
This achievement was not just about the technology; it was a testament to the hard work and dedication of our team. From the project managers who coordinated every detail to the engineers who tackled technical challenges head-on to the installers who ensured every component was perfectly placed—everyone played a crucial role in making this install successful.
