A Partnership Begins – Laying the AV Foundations at Premier Foods

Premier Foods, one of the UK’s most recognised food manufacturers, approached BoomSpace with a clear ask: to modernise the AV infrastructure at their head office. Their existing divisible meeting space was entirely manual. It was difficult to use, inconsistent, and no longer supported the needs of a modern, hybrid workforce. Reconfigurations were frequent, yet the technology didn’t keep up, resulting in daily frustration for users and added burden for IT. 

At the same time, Premier Foods was transitioning to Google Workspace. They had been advised by other suppliers that integrating Google Meet would require a costly network overhaul. This was a major concern and a key point of friction. 

They needed more than an install. They needed a strategic partner who could reimagine the way their AV worked, making it smarter, more intuitive, and future-ready without compromising budget or operational continuity. 

We listened, challenged assumptions, and brought forward a vision beyond the brief. 

From the outset, our engagement was deeply consultative. Working closely with the Technical Delivery Manager, we explored how their spaces could function. Not just technically, but practically for the teams using them every day. 

We redefined the purpose of the divisible room, proposing a flexible, multi-purpose environment capable of hosting everything from boardroom presentations to hybrid townhalls, learning sessions, and even live-streamed company-wide events. All of this would be delivered through intelligent automation and robust design, eliminating the need for manual setups. 

Most critically, we delivered a solution that integrated seamlessly with Google Meet, without the expensive infrastructure overhaul others had proposed. This was a turning point for the project and a clear demonstration of the value of deep AV expertise paired with a practical mindset. 

A fully integrated, future-ready AV system supporting diverse meeting formats: 

• Automated room configurations that adapt instantly between multiple small rooms, single large boardroom, townhall, training, and event setups 

• Through smart system design, we enabled Google Meet to operate beyond its intended limitations, unlocking functionality that even Google hadn’t anticipated. 

• Secure, dual wireless presentation for seamless internal and guest use—no costly network upgrades 

• Multi-display, intelligent source routing—no manual switching required 

• Discrete cable management ensuring a clean, professional look 

• Scalable design that later informed the national rollout across all sites 

• Capability to live stream Town Halls 

• BoomCare’s managed services providing expert support for large-scale internal events, along with ongoing system health monitoring 

• Transformed a limited functionality, outdated, manually setup divisible meeting room into a flexible, high-performance, multi-functional space 

• Simplified hybrid collaboration and improved accessibility for all users 

• No more messy wires resulting in a clean professional meeting space  

• OHS compliance 

• Dramatically reduced IT strain and support calls 

• Delivered a scalable, supportable foundation for AV at Premier Foods 

• Enabled seamless Google Meet integration within budget 

• Enhanced internal communications with live-streamed Town Halls 

• Reinforced confidence with on-site support for high-profile events 

This project didn’t just improve one room—it redefined what AV could be across Premier Foods. By focusing on partnership, strategy, and intelligent design, BoomSpace laid the groundwork for a national transformation.
