Techmenity was hired by the developer of The Brook, a 51-story luxury residential rental building in downtown Brooklyn, to bridge gaps between multiple stakeholders during the transition from construction to leasing and move-in. Our role was to ensure all technology systems, from AV and IT to building management and communications, were fully operational for residents, staff, and offices, while also establishing a long-term network strategy (Digital Foundation™).
Key Objectives
Coordinate technology closeout across ISPs, GC, and AV/IT subcontractors
Ensure all building systems are connected, functional, and ready for leasing/move-in
QA oversight for AV installations throughout common areas and offices
Consolidate disparate telecom and BMS systems into a single converged network
Deploy secure, reliable network infrastructure for offices, back-of-house systems, and IoT devices
Provide ongoing consultation and long-term network maintenance
