Smart Building Journey

Introduction

What is a smart building? Seems to be the buzzing question that kicks off any conversation on this nuanced topic. To us, smart buildings are places of mutual interaction between users and their workspaces, where a co-operative contract exists that allows users to communicate their wants and needs and in return they get an efficient workspace where productivity is heightened and services are at their fingertips. We measure our outcomes with the wow factor. The clear and pleasant surprise to someone who experiences a smart building for the first time. it’s what makes us tick.

Why go smart?

o Best method of maximising building value, efficiency & workplace user experience
o Hardware & software systems are now technically capable of delivering required data
o The convergence of Information Technology (IT) & Operational Technology (OT)
o Building owners want to deliver unrivalled customer/tenant experience
o Employers want to retain talent and offer immersive workplaces
o Streamline facilities management & reduce OPEX
o Productivity, fiscal advantage & changing office landscape

Smart Building Creation

Through detailed analysis of the characteristic differences between modern traditional buildings & projects, and those of a smart building, we identified the drivers and factors that impact the success of converting one to the other. This became our focus in developing a turnkey smart delivery model which incorporates all stages in the design, deployment, delivery and support of a truly smart building

Our end to end solution takes care of the technical and organisational workflows that are difficult to weave into the commercial structures that exist within urban development. It leverages our highly sophisticated base system design with much of the intricate development work already packaged up and built for plug and play connectivity with any or all smart solutions giving you absolute flexibility yet complete confidence in achieving the desired use cases. We bring the open source concept to smart building delivery and ground it with a robust strategy, while offering a super range of best-in-class apps and services which give the customer exactly what they imagined
