Overview

Expansion and Segregation of Background Music System (BGM) for Residence and Office Zones.

Solution Provided by Thasaamah

Thasaamah delivered a robust solution by designing a BGM system that allowed for the efficient segregation and control of audio in two distinct zones: residence and office. The features of the solution included:

1. Zone-Specific Audio Control

• The residence zone was equipped with a BGM system optimized for relaxation, comfort, and privacy. Music was selected based on ambient preferences, tailored to different spaces such as living rooms, bedrooms, and communal areas.
• The office zone featured a dynamic BGM system that catered to different moods and work environments, such as focused listening in quiet zones or energetic beats in collaborative spaces. Audio preferences could be adjusted based on the time of day or employee needs.

2. Centralized Control with Segregated Audio

• A centralized control interface was designed to allow building administrators to oversee the entire system’s performance. However, each zone maintained independent control over the audio settings, ensuring that customers and office workers had autonomy in their respective spaces.
• The system could be managed from a single touchpoint, but customers in the hotel zone and employees in the office zone could adjust the volume, select playlists, and control music content separately.

3. Security and Privacy

• Each zone was equipped with secure access control, ensuring that only authorized individuals could control or change audio settings in their respective zones

Results & Impact

✔ Enhanced Audio Experience
The separation of the BGM system allowed for personalized and enjoyable audio experience in both the Hotel and office zones. The office zone benefitted from energizing, focus-enhancing music, while the Hotel zone could offer relaxing or ambient soundtracks tailored to individual needs.

✔ Operational Efficiency
The independent control of music in each zone helped optimize the usage of the BGM system. Residents in the hotel could enjoy music in their personal space without interference from the office area, while office employees could tailor the music to productivity needs without disturbing others.

✔ User Satisfaction
The flexible control system led to high levels of user satisfaction, as residents in the hotel and office workers enjoyed a BGM system that adapted to their specific requirements. The overall customization of the music system in each zone contributed to a positive atmosphere in both the Hotel and office spaces.

✔ Seamless Integration
The system was seamlessly integrated with existing building infrastructure, and the separation of controls allowed each zone to operate independently, avoiding cross-zone interference.

Conclusion

Expansion and segregation of the BGM system for the Hotel and Office zones successfully achieved the client’s goal of tailored audio management. The project demonstrated that a carefully implemented BGM system can:

• Provide customized audio experiences for both residents of the hotel and office workers.
• Improve user satisfaction by offering independence in music control for each zone.
• Optimize operational efficiency through smart integration with building systems like occupancy sensors and lighting.

The project also established a scalable and flexible BGM solution that can evolve with future needs or expansions.

Efficient Handover to Customer

The handover process ensured the customer was fully equipped to manage the system moving forward:

Training

• User training was provided for both building management and the end-users (residents and office employees). This included how to operate the system through touch panels and managing playlists.

Documentation

• Detailed user manuals and system documentation were delivered, explaining the functionalities, controls, and troubleshooting steps for the BGM system.
• A technical guide for building management included maintenance procedures, system updates, and integration points with other building systems.

Support

• A support agreement was established to ensure ongoing maintenance, troubleshooting, and system updates as needed. This also included technical support for any urgent system issues.
