Daihatsu Perodua Engine Manufacturing (DPEM) has upgraded its meeting room environment with a Meeting Room Panel Arvia DPEM installation, mounted outside each meeting room at its facility in Sendayan, Negeri Sembilan. The panel gives employees a clear, at-a-glance view of room availability before stepping in, replacing guesswork with a simple visual check.

Project Challenge
As a manufacturing facility with multiple meeting rooms in regular use, DPEM needed a clearer way for employees to check room availability without walking up to a closed door or interrupting an ongoing discussion. Scheduling confusion was a recurring issue, with double-bookings and unclear room status making it harder for teams to plan meetings efficiently. With production schedules, supplier calls and internal reviews all competing for the same rooms, even small scheduling mix-ups had a way of adding up over the course of a working day.
The facility needed a straightforward, visible solution that any employee could glance at while walking through the building, rather than relying on a shared calendar that not everyone checked before heading to a room. A digital calendar only helps if everyone remembers to look at it, and in a busy manufacturing environment, that is not always realistic.
Solution Provided
Arvia installed a Meeting Room Panel Arvia DPEM outside each meeting room, giving employees an immediate view of room status without needing to open the door or check a separate app. The panel was positioned at eye level in the corridor, making it easy to read while walking past.
This approach gives DPEM a more organised and professional way to manage meeting spaces, supporting smoother daily operations across the facility. Instead of relying on staff to memorise a shared booking sheet, the panel puts the information exactly where people need it, right outside the room itself.
The installation across multiple meeting rooms was planned so that every panel matches the same clean, consistent look, keeping the corridors tidy while making the system easy for any employee to understand without training.
Key Features
At-a-Glance Room Availability
Employees can see whether a room is available or occupied simply by walking past, removing the guesswork that used to come with checking a room in person.
Reduced Scheduling Confusion
With clear visibility of meeting room status, the panel helps reduce double-bookings and mix-ups, giving teams a more seamless experience before and during meetings.
Clean, Professional Placement
Mounted outside each room rather than inside, the panel keeps meeting spaces looking tidy while still giving employees the information they need before they even reach the door.
Why the Meeting Room Panel Arvia DPEM Fit This Facility
A manufacturing site like DPEM runs on tight schedules, and meeting rooms are shared across production, engineering and administrative teams throughout the day. A simple, always-visible display outside each room meant staff no longer needed to check with someone else or open a door to know whether a room was free, which mattered more here than in an office with only one or two meeting rooms to manage.
Project Outcome
The Meeting Room Panel Arvia DPEM installation reflects DPEM’s continued effort to improve workplace efficiency through practical technology. By integrating a meeting room panel into its meeting spaces, the organisation now has a more connected, organised and productive meeting environment for its team, with less time spent resolving scheduling confusion.
Employees no longer need to interrupt an ongoing meeting just to check whether a room is occupied, and the reduced back-and-forth around bookings means less time lost to avoidable scheduling issues across the facility. For a manufacturing environment where time on the floor matters, even small efficiency gains like this add up over the course of a week, and staff have generally found the new system straightforward to read and use from day one.
