IBIS Building Master System Integration

  One hurdle or question that we, as a Master System Integrator and Smart Building Software provider, often encounter within the industry is: Why do we need an MSI or a Smart Building Platform if we already have various building systems like HVAC controls, lighting controls, metering systems, etc., that are already being used to accomplish their specific use cases? The succinct response lies in efficiency, convenience, accessibility, and management.   Viewing this inquiry parallels the use case of a smartphone. Prior to the advent of smartphones, various web applications were accessible from workstations or PCs. The smartphone consolidated these applications into a centralized device, simplifying access and allowing users to derive maximum value from the applications they were already utilizing . Within a matter of minutes, one could plan an entire...

  In our experience integrating IoT system  data with facility software is central  to optimizing facility performance.  However, structuring IoT data from a central source like IBIS’s smart building platform is the key enabler of ensuring this process works effectively.  IoT data enables the facility software  that was already purchased and installed to be more effective by leveraging real-time data for predictive maintenance, enhancing energy efficiency and improving productivity. You may be thinking to yourself, well facility software and IoT systems have been available for quite some time now  why isn’t this more prevalent in buildings now? This is because, up until recently, when Facility Software attempted to have a heart-to-heart with IoT systems, it felt as chaotic as  a UN meeting without translators,  where everyone was passionately speaking different languages simultaneously, resulting in a symphony of confusion. The  recent a...
