While the major part of the renovation is finished, there are still a few behind-the-scenes items that have yet to be completed. One of those items is the bas, the retrofit of which began in 1998 and is scheduled to be finished by the end of the year.
For years, Harrah's used another system, which worked very well, but as parts became more difficult (and expensive) to find, there was a need to find a new bas. In addition, the engineering department at Harrah's wanted a system that was more graphics-oriented, could help point out where to save energy, and could keep tighter control of the indoor environment.
