The built environment is undergoing one of its most transformative and compelling periods in the last 25 years. In recent years, building owners have overcome many hurdles from reassuring occupants about building safety and health to meeting operational and energy efficiency challenges head on. With our customer-focused strategy, we continue to innovate, develop and launch new products to bring to market that empower customers to improve their business outcomes, meet regulatory and compliance requirements and mitigate risks inherent in today’s building integration.
The increasing requirements within commercial buildings’ data structure are more demanding than ever. Stakeholders are now deeply invested in “how” buidlings function including ways to reduce energy, improve operational efficiency, and increase occupant standards for health, comfort and safety. Adoption of smart building technology is at a pivotal point; drive by connectivity, data access/analytics, edge, Cloud, and the convergence of operational and workplace outcomes. There are several factors influencing the BAS industry that are creating this turning point.
With recent supply chain issues, cicular buildings/circular construction is enabling the closure of building material loops by reusing, repurposing, repairing, refurbishing, and recycling versus the traditional: create and consume mindset. Also the increasing need for flexible/staggered work environments and indoor air quality, the growth of connected devices and systems, looming cyber threats, and the global push for a net zero carbon footprint—all of which require buildings to be smarter and connected—are contributing factors.
According to the latest Commercial Buildings Energy Consumption Survey (CBECS), the reality is that most buildings still need to make investments in controls:
