Smart Meeting Room Upgrade for Department of Statistics Malaysia

The Department of Statistics Malaysia (DOSM), a pivotal government agency responsible for national data gathering and statistical reporting, has made a significant leap in modernizing its internal processes. By transitioning from traditional conferencing methods to a smart meeting room solution powered by Arvia, DOSM is taking bold steps to foster innovation, precision, and efficiency within its daily operations. This transformation reinforces the department’s mission to deliver accurate, timely, and relevant data to inform Malaysia’s socio-economic development.

Transforming Conventional Setups with Smart Technology

To drive this transformation, DOSM selected Arvia’s full suite of smart meeting room equipment, including the Smartboard ARV100-86, DAS-800 Plus microphone and speaker system, and the ARV-VC40V PTZ camera. These integrated technologies offer a dynamic and intelligent workspace for real-time collaboration, making presentations, virtual meetings, and data analysis more interactive and efficient. This modern upgrade ensures that participants can share insights, conduct reviews, and reach decisions more effectively, all while reducing communication gaps across departments.

Smartboard as the Command Center of Collaboration

At the heart of the upgraded smart meeting room is the ARV100-86 Smartboard—a powerful interactive display designed to enhance content sharing, brainstorming, and live annotation. This 86-inch smartboard supports multi-touch input and delivers vivid visuals, making it ideal for presenting statistical charts, reports, and data-driven forecasts. It allows DOSM teams to annotate on-the-fly, visualize data in real time, and navigate digital content with ease. With Android and Windows compatibility, the smartboard also enables seamless integration with existing software and cloud platforms.

Enhanced Audio-Visual Communication with DAS-800 Plus and PTZ Camera

To ensure clear, professional-quality communication during meetings, DOSM incorporated the DAS-800 Plus microphone and speaker system. This audio solution eliminates background noise and enhances voice clarity, ensuring every participant is heard—whether in the room or dialing in remotely. Accompanying this is the ARV-VC40V PTZ camera, which brings high-definition video conferencing to life. Its auto-tracking capabilities and flexible positioning allow for better engagement during hybrid meetings, supporting DOSM’s hybrid work model and cross-ministry collaborations.

Boosting Efficiency Through Seamless Integration

The smart meeting room setup is designed to be intuitive, reducing the learning curve and empowering staff to adopt the system quickly. By integrating all three technologies into a single streamlined interface, DOSM is able to manage meeting schedules, control devices, and record sessions with ease. This smooth user experience minimizes technical interruptions and allows personnel to focus on content and collaboration rather than logistics.

Supporting Data-Driven Decision-Making

As a central pillar of Malaysia’s policy planning, DOSM regularly hosts high-level discussions on statistical insights, economic forecasts, and policy implications. The smart meeting room now enables these meetings to be more productive and data-centric. With the ability to pull live dashboards, display national statistics, and compare year-over-year trends in real-time, DOSM can enhance its decision-making accuracy and agility. These capabilities are essential as the department plays a vital role in guiding Malaysia’s socio-economic growth and development strategies.

Reinforcing Commitment to Digital Transformation

DOSM’s investment in smart meeting room technology reflects its broader commitment to digital transformation. As Malaysia advances its digital economy, the public sector must lead by example. With Arvia’s smart meeting room solution, DOSM has not only modernized its internal workflows but also set a benchmark for other government departments aiming to elevate their operational efficiency through technology.

A Forward-Thinking Collaboration

The partnership between DOSM and Arvia demonstrates a shared vision for future-ready governance and institutional excellence. By embracing innovative tools such as smartboards, PTZ cameras, and integrated audio systems, DOSM has taken a major step in redefining the way government departments operate, collaborate, and serve the public. This smart meeting room initiative signifies more than just a tech upgrade—it is a commitment to continuous improvement, smart governance, and effective leadership.
