Case Analysis Overview: Cerami Enables Innovative AV Solution for 3.2-Million-Square-Foot Development in Toronto

Posted on by

In the heart of downtown Toronto, the 81 Bay Street development stands as a testament to architectural excellence and cutting-edge technology integration. The project involved the construction of two high-rise commercial towers and various other spaces totaling over 3.2 million square feet.

Cerami, a renowned audiovisual and acoustic consulting services provider, played a pivotal role in this transformative project. With its expertise, Cerami successfully implemented an innovative audiovisual solution, seamlessly blending technology with the architectural vision of the development.

There is no permanently installed audiovisual infrastructure; all AV assets seamlessly integrate into the building’s robust IT network infrastructure.

By doing this, Cerami facilitated the creation of an AV-as-a-Service model, enabling CIBC Square to convert a significant portion of capital expenditure to a multiyear operating expense.
