The Brief

RSSB worked with Carillion to gather information on current Microsoft Teams technology that would integrate into their meeting spaces prior to issuing an RFP based on their requirements. Carillion was successfully awarded the project, which consisted of fitting several small and large meeting rooms, single and twin booths and the CEO's office with
standardised Microsoft Teams solutions.

The small meeting rooms had to facilitate collaboration and communication with ease in a small space, so compactness was imperative. Additionally, all small rooms had to cater to virtual and physical participants; therefore, each room had to be arranged to maximise visibility and sound quality. A BYOD platform was one of RSSBs main requirements for all rooms. In particular, the one and two-person booths had to provide this feature to ensure flexible and easy use of the spaces.

Each large meeting room had to guarantee the value of human interaction was not lost in a meeting with virtual participants. Everyone had to feel seen, heard and included no matter where they chose to join from. The lack of physical connection could not interfere with the teamwork and cooperation required in every meeting. Therefore, high-quality cameras, sound systems and displays were needed in each space. Some of these larger rooms had to be flexible and divisible to provide the best experience in each meeting, no matter the number of attendees.

Finally, the CEO's office had to integrate and communicate with the rest of the new office technology seamlessly.
