Smart building is definitely not characterized as the application of technology; it’s not about the Internet of Things or the system integrations that have an impact on data analytics. It’s not about the smartness of specific functions and its outcomes, either – the less costly maintenance, the lower energy usage, the better occupant comfort.
We think that “smart building” doesn’t really stay in the tech part, but it’s actually some kind of commitment to the scientific methods to accomplish the goals that inspired this building in the first place. We know it sounds easy, but many of the high-tech buildings are not the definition of smart. The reason why is that they don’t really help the facility management team to achieve its goals. Most of them are just a waste of money and time. If this building doesn’t really change how people do their work – in better, in a provable way, then it’s not smart building and it’s actually useless. It’s very hard to achieve this; not many can do it.
What you need to do: keep people productive and comfortable
A building plan believes in keeping people comfortable. The maintenance team should be there to respond to the needs of the occupants.
When it comes to a smart building plan, many people use the building automation systems, which are composed out of The Internet of Things devices, cloud apps, and connectivity, in order to measure the environmental conditions, such as Co2, temperature, humidity, and lightning. It also helps in getting constant feedback from the occupants.
Operators should apply analytics to data to keep track of what occupants think of the comfortability of the building in real time. A benchmark would be created then they’d change the way in which the building is operating in order to enhance the conditions that are based on the comfort score.
