We have breaking news for you this month, in the form of a limited-space opportunity available to registrants for our gathering this fall in San Diego. Rather than paraphrasing what we've already written once, let me just give it to you straight from the attractively short, concise, and official press release:
The organizers of the BAC 2006 conference are proud to announce an optional building tour as part of the upcoming conference in San Diego on September 12-13, 2006. The tour will feature one of San Diego's premier buildings, One America Plaza. This project was built overlooking San Diego Bay in the late 1980s and was designed by renowned architect Helmut Jahn.
Over the last 10 years, this property has been transformed into one of the most advanced intelligent buildings in North America. The building features a high-speed building optical network (BON) which provides broadband and wireless access for all tenants. A recent controls upgrade provides for network access to all systems, including CCTV cameras, air handlers, chillers, and terminal units. The intelligence continues into the operation of the building with the use of wireless handheld tools for the operations staff, digital images of all drawings and documents, and a tenant portal. This project is a great example of the value of an intelligent building.
Due to the limited space in the building's mechanical areas, the capacity of the tour is limited to 50 attendees. Early registrants for the BAC 2006 conference will have an option to register for the tour at no additional charge.
This unusual opportunity should provide a great real-world tie-in to the discussions we'll be having in San Diego, so pursue the quick signup at http://www.bnpevents.com/ES/BAC/IBTour2006.htm, if you're interested.
