Customer Requirements & Challenges

Professionalizing and Modernizing PEA’s Meeting Room with state-of-the-art Video Conferencing Technology

Under the state company’s “Digital Transformation - PEA DX” mission, PEA needed a smart meeting room that is modern and welcoming but at the same time, professional, easy to use and equipped with the latest digital technology. It wanted to use a mix of the most advanced equipment such as computers, projectors and other connected devices for presentations and communication activities with stakeholders.

This meeting room, which doubles as a conference space, is considered a very important area in the company’s headquarters. For this project, it was crucial to install high-efficiency, low-latency systems providing efficient, fast and flexible real-time solutions for individuals or groups to participate actively and simultaneously in meetings.

The PEA required a unified conference system to save time and resources, and enable brainstorming, analyzing, strategic planning and quick decision-making.
