Case Study: Knight E/A (engineering & architecture firm) achieves real-time global collaboration and cost savings with Lifesize Cloud video conferencing

Knight E/A - Customer Case Study

Knight E/A, a Chicago-based engineering and architecture firm with more than 130 employees across five Midwest offices and one in Guam, needed a better way to collaborate across satellite and field locations. Teams struggled to review image-rich deliverables and CAD drawings in real time, relying on FTP links, PDFs, WebEx and poor webcam feeds that caused delays, travel and coordination barriers.

By adopting Lifesize Cloud, Knight E/A enabled device‑agnostic video meetings and real‑time review of AutoCAD and MicroStation drawings from smartphones, tablets and PCs, with audio-only options for restrictive clients. The cloud solution eliminated large upfront costs, proved scalable, became a daily collaboration tool across projects, streamlined workflows, reduced travel and phone use, and delivered high-quality, cost-effective results.
