The project began in Summer 2022, and was put to the ultimate test with its completion on Super Bowl Sunday - and it was a success!

Technologies Project Manager Travis Fleming notes this two-acre venue project is an impressive show of P1’s versatile technologies capabilities for several reasons.

“One of the biggest challenges on a comprehensive scope like this is coordination with the multiple manufacturers and distributors involved,” he said.

 Multiple big-screen TVs and the finished video walls give visitors the ultimate viewing experience.

“On this project, that included Avigilon, the Assa Abloy family of products, Samsung, and the Pensar LED video boards.”

“This includes interactive training, installation processes/ programming, and exploring exactly what protocols they need us to provide on a network for their systems, all while overcoming procurement challenges,” Travis added.

Travis notes one of the most interesting parts of the completed project is that the technologies are controlled through an iPad, giving SERV staff the convenience of one integrated place from which to control access, manage camera systems, and control A/V interface, TVs, video boards, and sound systems.

“The integration – for these to all interact with one another - was a significant achievement,” Travis said.

Technologies Operations Manager Danny Farnan says the other exciting piece of this project is that it displays P1 Technologies’ versatility, from design to installation, and through completion.

“This has been a great opportunity for P1 Building Technologies to demonstrate our skill sets with many different systems and manufacturers – all within one project,” Danny said.

He says it also gave the Technologies team a chance to expand how they go to market and enhance their business approach as they move into the future.

“P1 Technologies provides diverse systems integration, and we continue to adapt to the fast pace of change in the technologies world,” Danny said.

“This was truly a group effort. Each team member shared their expertise to collectively bring this project to successful completion.” 
