BUILDING CONTROLS & ANALYTICS

Real-time data on how your building uses energy

Improve your building analytics so you can pinpoint the best options to reduce consumption and improve efficiency every day.

Reduce energy use

Building controls and analytics will save you 5%-35% on your utility bill. How much depends on how your building compares with others like it. We’ll benchmark and improve your building analytics based on years of data, so you’ll know what you can expect to save in energy consumption.

Understand how much energy each piece of equipment uses

Accurately plan when you’ll need to replace equipment. See how efficient each piece of equipment is year over year. If you know how quickly each piece of equipment degrades, you can accurately predict and plan when it needs to be replaced.

Monitor energy in real-time

When you know how your building uses energy, you know where the drains are, and where the best opportunities for improvement are. Whether it’s in overused HVAC or lights left on, you’ll be able to pinpoint what’s causing a spike through upgraded building controls and analytics.

Confidently make big budget decisions

Usually, people wait for something to break before they fix it. But imagine if you knew five years in advance and started budgeting for it now. That’s the level of insight you’ll get with advanced building analytics. 

Plus, meet the regulations to future-proof your facility…

Meet the new standards in sustainability

Updating your building automation system now can help you keep up with the latest energy regulations and standards and avoid any potential fines, penalties, or legal issues for the organization.

Meet stakeholders’ sustainability needs

To meet and exceed sustainability standards means your facility is ready for the future, not being held back by outdated technologies.

Improve your Environmental, Social & Governance (ESG) rating

The higher the rating, the lower the risk for your organization. Less risk exposure and active risk mitigation are more attractive to investors.

Long-term financial gain

Turn fixed costs into expenses of the past. Reinvest energy savings back into your company to improve operational efficiency. The opportunity cost of not prioritizing updated lighting today means a less profitable company tomorrow.
