Retrofitting existing buildings to be smarter is just as important as building new smart buildings
An audit is the first step in retrofitting an existing building to be smarter because it allows for a comprehensive assessment of the building's current systems, energy usage, and potential for improvement.
We can complete a building technology audit to assess the current state of technology in your existing buildings. This audit will evaluate the current infrastructure, systems and technology in place and identify potential areas for improvement, such as energy efficiency, comfort, security, and productivity, and it will help to plan for future upgrades and to make informed decisions about building operations.
Why Making Existing Buildings Smarter Is Important
-
Energy Efficiency
Smart building technology can help existing buildings become more energy efficient by automatically adjusting lighting, HVAC, and other systems based on occupancy and usage patterns. This can help reduce energy consumption and lower costs.
-
Improved Comfort
Smart building technology can also improve the comfort of occupants by automatically adjusting temperature, lighting, and other environmental factors to create a more optimal indoor environment.
-
Increased Productivity
Smart building technology can help increase productivity by providing occupants with better access to information, tools, and resources. For example, a smart building might have interactive touchscreen directories, or digital signage that can be used to display important information.
-
Enhanced Security
Smart building technology strengthens cybersecurity by securing networks, encrypting data, and monitoring for unauthorized access. This helps protect sensitive building systems and data from cyber threats, ensuring the integrity and safety of operations.
-
Better Asset Management
Smart building technology can help building managers better track and maintain their assets, such as HVAC systems and lighting fixtures. For example, a smart building might have sensors that can detect when a light bulb needs to be replaced, and automatically schedule a replacement.
-
Cost Savings
Smart building technology can help building owners and managers save money by reducing energy consumption, improving asset management, and increasing productivity.
