The foundation: Next-generation Connectivity
A robust, future-ready network is crucial for bringing the key datapoints together to deliver a smart building experience for workers or students’ success. The underlying connectivity for the smart building must be:
Agile
Embrace software-defined technologies
Secure
Implement multi-layered security protocols
Observable
Utilise advanced monitoring and analytics
Sustainable
Ensure carbon IT infrastructure is energy efficient
Benefits of implementing smart building technology
● Connect the hybrid and remote worker experience
● Integrate spaces, endpoints and devices to monitor quality of collaboration.
● Report on Intelligent space utilisation
● Centralised, mobile-accessible surveillance systems
● Geofencing capabilities for asset protection
● Integrated access control across multiple locations
● Granular (and automated/remote) control over lighting and HVAC systems
● Occupancy-based environmental adjustments
● Predictive maintenance capabilities
● Reduced energy consumption through intelligent automation
● Minimised environmental footprint of IT operations
● Enhanced ability to meet and exceed regulatory requirements
Key solutions in the Logicalis Smart Building Blueprint
Hybrid workplace integration
Ensure a consistent, productive collaboration experience for all employees regardless of whether they are onsite or remote.
Occupancy monitoring / Intelligent space booking
Track real-time occupancy and ensure efficient booking and reporting on utilisation of spaces
Building Management System (BMS) integration
Ensure your legacy BMS talks to the new tech systems, allowing centralised control and monitoring of your smart building solution suite.
Environmental monitoring
Integrate sensors and systems that continuously measure and report on indoor air quality, temperature, humidity, and other environmental factors to ensure optimal comfort and health.
Energy usage monitoring
Track and analyse energy consumption across various building systems, enabling optimisation and reduction of energy use.
Physical Security
Integrate physical barriers, surveillance cameras, access control, life safety systems, and asset tracking into a unified, intelligent network.
Intelligent lighting
Adaptive lighting systems that adjust based on occupancy, time of day, and natural light levels to improve energy efficiency.
Wayfinding
Implement wayfinding navigation systems to help occupants and visitors easily locate and reach their destinations within a building or campus
