The evolution of the modern office needs to accommodate team members meeting in person and online. ESD now Stantec Senior Audio Visual Consultant John Doyle offers an overview of the best technology to consider. (Learn more about the meeting room technology.)
New technologies are transforming the traditional workspace allowing building owners, operators, and developers to attract and retain tenants in a competitive market.
Writing for Modern Contractor magazine, ESD now Stantec Practice Leader for Technology Mo Fahim says modern offices continue to evolve. In “Smart Buildings: Aligning Technology with Evolving Tenant Needs,” Fahim says expectations for new work environments are shifting from being strictly about productivity and practicality to places that promote sustainability, community, experience, collaboration, and creativity.
Fahim’s article outlines several factors to consider when determining the best building/tenant fit. These include health/wellness; environmental stewardship; determining the best intelligent building platform to employ; infrastructure and connectivity readiness; and safety and security.
For building owners, operators, and managers to succeed, Fahim says their facilities must grow and evolve with these expectations.
Mo Fahim freely shares his knowledge and passion for innovation with other industry professionals as part of ESD now Stantec’s mission to foster communities and improve society through the built environment.
