Automate lighting, HVAC, and energy management from a single connected system.
Smart building automation ties sensors, building management systems, and analytics together into logic that runs the building rather than just monitoring it — adjusting HVAC to occupancy, dimming lights on a schedule, and flagging equipment before it fails. We design this layer to sit on top of your existing systems, whether that is a new-build campus or a retrofit of legacy infrastructure.

Common questions about our Smart Building Automation service.
Usually not. We build automation logic on top of your existing BMS via its BACnet or KNX interface, rather than replacing it. Replacement is only recommended when the existing system genuinely cannot expose the data or control points the automation needs.
This depends heavily on your baseline — buildings with fully manual HVAC scheduling see the largest gains, often in the 15-25% range on energy costs, while buildings with an already-tuned BMS see more modest but still meaningful improvements. We baseline your actual consumption before quoting a target.
Yes — this is one of our core use cases. We design the automation layer as a federated system, where each building runs its own local control loop for resilience, while a campus-wide dashboard gives facilities teams a single view across every site.
They complement each other directly — the BIM model provides spatial and asset context (which sensor is in which room, which system serves which zone), and the automation layer uses that context to make smarter control decisions. Clients who have both get a genuinely unified view of their building.
Automation logic includes fail-safe defaults — if a sensor or connection drops, affected systems fall back to safe, pre-configured states (typically the BMS's own scheduled behaviour) rather than an undefined or unsafe condition, and facilities teams are alerted immediately.
Yes — automation rules are rarely perfect on day one. We typically include a tuning period where thresholds and schedules are adjusted based on real occupancy and seasonal data, and offer ongoing optimisation as an extension of our IoT data platform support.
