Creating a building for the future at 123 Albert Street


123 Albert Street has recently undergone a remarkable transformation, with VAE Group at the forefront of the smart building technology upgrade.

Our client, and building owner, Dexus understand the importance of Master Systems Integration and entrusted VAE to lead and manage a group of highly technical sub-contractors through the complex repositioning.

This initiative has provided substantial functional upgrades to the building by integrating advanced systems onto a high-speed, secure Integrated Communications Network (ICN), encompassing both existing and newly upgraded building services. All of which require a deep technical understanding of the systems themselves, their integration capabilities and technical project management to seamlessly bring all the pieces and people together.

VAE embraced a partnership model with all specialised technology subcontractors and by doing so were able to provide a reliable, integrated, and secure solution that just worked from day one. At VAE, we call that ‘Built in Certainty’!

Some of the technology solutions provided by either VAE or our sub-contractors were:

• Upgrading passive and active ICN infrastructure
• Enhancing the Building Management System
• Upgrading the access control system
• Upgrading the CCTV and intercom system
• Installing a new wireless Local Area Network
• Implementing a digital signage display system
• Implementing indoor environmental monitoring
• Implementing a people counting system

VAE are proud to have collaborated with Dexus and Buildcorp on this project, bringing 123 Albert St into the forefront of contemporary Smart Building Technology.
