THE CHALLENGE
After outgrowing their previous office space, Cerus relocated over 130 employees into a 35,000-square-foot state-of-the-art facility in Concord, CA. Cerus wanted a facility that could accommodate growth, as their workforce is expected to grow rapidly in the future.
In this redesign, collaboration has always been a priority, but the pandemic and reduced travel made hybrid meetings more essential.
THE SOLUTION
Cerus provides biotech professionals with an integrated set of solutions that enable them to achieve breakthrough performance across a wide range of physical, virtual, and cloud environments. To support mission-critical applications, technology must be built specifically for this purpose. As Cerus's partner, Creation Networks can provide them with a trusted and scalable platform that they can depend on. Using Crestron technology instills confidence in their team, as well as allowing them to improve their performance
As a Systems Engineer at Cerus, Richard Chew and his team were searching for intuitive solutions for every aspect of their workplace. He emphasizes the importance of flexibility and scalability in this project. In choosing Creation Networks, we chose to build a rock-solid technology infrastructure that we could rely on both now and in the future. In the new Cerus headquarters, there are beautiful meeting spaces, huddle spaces, hoteling workstations, a training facility, and an event room all powered by Crestron.
THE TECHNOLOGY
Whether an employee works remotely from their laptop or joins a call in a meeting room, Crestron Flex delivers a native Microsoft Teams experience. Cerus conference rooms have been scaled using tabletop, front of the room, and Crestron Flex systems to provide high audio and video quality. As well as the conference rooms, Cerus also uses Crestron Flex for their boardrooms. Due to the rise of hybrid work, these larger spaces needed to be equipped with the right solutions to provide a better in-room experience for large groups. Content and remote participants are simultaneously displayed on dual screens at the front of the room.
Cerus' Showrooms allow visitors to see the company's latest and greatest products in an immersive environment. Touch screens from Crestron maximize the room's unique features by controlling lighting, signage, and more. Crestron AirMedia® wireless presentation systems simplify content sharing by allowing quick adjustments to customize content and tailor the displays for individual visitors.
A reliable management solution was needed since meeting rooms, common areas, and showrooms relied on technology. With XiO Cloud, the team can manage these spaces with an intelligent tool that streamlines operations. Using the Crestron XiO Cloud® Technology Operations Management Platform, the team can remotely connect to any device instead of manually searching for it.
RESULTS
Cerus provides a complete set of solutions that enable biotech professionals to achieve breakthrough performance in physical, virtual, and cloud environments. Therefore, it is imperative to deploy technology built to support mission-critical applications. Cerus need to have a trusted and scalable platform that they can depend on, which they can get from Creation Networks, their partner. Crestron technology instills confidence in their team, but it also allows employees.
