Samsung – Ridgefield Park, New Jersey

Samsung engaged Aramark to construct the modern boardroom and enhanced front lobby in a compressed time frame of three weeks working multiple shifts to meet a deadline for inspection by the CEO team from the Korean Headquarters. The initial focus was on a simple audio visual upgrade that expanded to a full renovation of an executive boardroom and the LED walls and AV functions in the highly visible main lobby of the US headquarters’ main entrance.

Unique features of the project included a Wall of LED screens with 4K aspect for internal branding and showcase of Samsung’s internal technology. Full capacity video conference rooms tied into Samsung’s internal network with full security protocols along with state-of-the-art acoustics for presentations. The Ultra-High Definition and LED screens generated substantial heat build up that required unique spot MEP solutions tied into the building HVAC.

The Aramark Project Management team worked under tight time constraints to maintain the tight three week project schedule. Double shifts were initiated working after hours and weekends. The Aramark team collaborated with designers on selections to cut lead time and value engineering (VE). The project was completed in September 2018. It maintained the on target date and was completed substantially under budget.
