WHAT IS A BUILDING MANAGEMENT SYSTEM?

A building management system (BMS), also known as a building operations system, uses computer hardware and software to allow users to control all the main systems in a building from one platform.

This means the user can automate important processes and easily monitor performance. A BMS is also referred to as a building automation system (BAS) and building controls system.

WHY DO WE NEED A BUILDING OPERATIONS SYSTEM?

Because of all the building components listed above, keeping your building running reliably and efficiently can be a challenge.

A BMS system can interact with all the various subsystems (e.g., power distribution, HVAC, etc.) and give you a centralized management platform, that makes staying in control of your building much easier.

WHAT ARE THE COMPONENTS OF A BUILDING MANAGEMENT SYSTEM?

A building management system controls and monitors the building’s mechanical and electrical equipment such as:

  • Ventilation
  • Lighting
  • Boilers and Chillers

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF A BUILDING MANAGEMENT SYSTEM?

A BMS offers many benefits beyond centralized management over your building’s subsystems.

The top four are better energy efficiency, occupant experience, operational efficiency, and precise control.

ENERGY EFFICIENCY

ENERGY EFFICIENCY

Building automation provides greater control over systems, giving operators the ability to measure, analyze and take action to increase energy efficiency and lower costs. For example, occupancy sensors connected to a building automation system (BAS) can detect if everyone has gone home for the day. As a result, the BAS can then dim the lights and command the mechanical system into nighttime setback mode, thus adjusting the temperature and lighting to save energy through both systems.

OCCUPANT EXPERIENCE

OCCUPANT EXPERIENCE

An ideal temperature and adequate lighting are crucial components for improving the occupant experience. With modern building automation, employees can maintain their optimal space temperature and lighting levels while working early in the morning or late into the evening. The satisfaction that comes from this level of personalization leads to improvements in important metrics like employee recruitment and tenant retention. Aptly named “smart” buildings, which provide the highest levels of connectivity and occupant experience, have been shown to yield 6% higher rental values and produce a 15% premium for sale in the market.

OPERATIONAL EFFICIENCY

OPERATIONAL EFFICIENCY

Connections to analytics platforms, such as automated fault detection and diagnostics (AFDD), enable operators to better predict future system performance and perform dynamic, condition-based maintenance. By becoming more proactive regarding potential maintenance issues, operators can reduce unplanned equipment downtime and better plan their work instead of reacting to alarms and dealing with unexpected issues.

PRECISE CONTROL

PRECISE CONTROL

Facilities such as hospitals and data centers often require precise temperature and humidity control with no tolerance for system variability or downtime. Automation can be used to maintain consistent temperature, appropriate lighting and contaminant-free ventilation in spaces like operating rooms, laboratories or other critical facilities.

WE'RE READY TO CREATE YOUR BUILDING OF THE FUTURE

Our building automation systems will allow you to monitor everything from your HVAC system to your lighting and security systems from one, easy-to-use platform.

Our systems are easily installed in newer buildings, but older buildings can also be retrofitted with our management software. No matter your situation, we can find a solution that makes automating your building simple.
