There are a few significant factors that facility managers need to consider when determining the building management system price:
One important consideration is understanding that an open, non-proprietary building management system (BMS) platform…
A major financial institution wanted to upgrade its existing Trane legacy control system.
MACC offered them an option to upgrade their Trane system to current technology levels.
The solution would also provide a clear path toward an open systems framework moving to the future.
MACC used the Tridium JACE product line to upgrade the existing Trane BMS at significant savings well below Trane’s…
Facility managers across all industries face challenges in reducing energy costs while maintaining their buildings.
This is mainly because facility managers are also responsible for the health and safety of the building's occupants.
Hospitals are complicated to maintain because they require high indoor air environmental quality (IAQ) standards, especially in operating rooms. Implementing…
Building Automation Systems are prone to aging and will eventually need to be replaced, fixed, or upgraded over time. Like an HVAC or plumbing system, building control equipment has a finite lifespan that varies based on quality, use, and care.
There are three simple tips for avoiding BMS problems:
Building Management Systems (BMS) are typically classified as either proprietary (closed) or non-proprietary (open).
Proprietary systems integrate exclusively with equipment and software produced by the company that manufactured the system.
In contrast, non-proprietary building control systems can integrate with various equipment manufacturers and software platforms. They also offer a wide range…
It’s entirely possible for JCI BAS system owners or property managers to upgrade their legacy system to a more updated and non-proprietary one like Tridium or J2 Innovations.
This migration can produce a far superior system that’s up to date with current technology and is capable of moving forward as technology improves in the future. Read on to learn more about the value and benefits you’ll get…
Access control systems are supposed to create a more efficient way for authorized individuals to enter an otherwise restricted or controlled area—while creating a verifiable paper-trail record of entries and exits.
The vast majority of access control issues stem from:
Researchers at MIT estimate that commercial buildings account for 20% of all the energy used in the U.S., and as much as 30% of that goes to waste.
Energy usage is a business operating expense in commercial buildings. However, the productivity of the people inside is the real goal.
Comfort and climate control are key aspects of maintaining productivity in an office building, but what if you…
Facility managers today have access to a wide variety of ways to improve overall energy efficiency within their buildings.
