Take a bite of some tasty finance to improve, upgrade and create smart spaces

When your focus is to demonstrate an image of excellence and attract and retain talented staff and students, you need a learning community that inspires. The campus of tomorrow is digital, agile and flexible – just like our finance. With a range of products and solutions to help you make your buildings and campus smart, we’re here to tackle your fears and help you tuck in to the campus of tomorrow…
Energy efficiency & performance

Achieve carbon and energy reduction targets by making savings on energy consumption. Offset the cost of installing conservation measures with an Energy Performance Contract (EPC). Let us audit your power use and we’ll provide the solution and finance to match!

Fire systems and alarms

University residences are particularly vulnerable from false fire alarms and unnecessary and costly call-outs from the Fire Brigade. Let us upgrade and improve your fire systems with our unique ASA technology to reduce false alarms, save money and lives, whilst keeping financing simple and transparent

Energy generation

Generating your own energy onsite can not only reduce your energy costs by up to 25%, significantly reduce carbon emissions but create a ‘living lab’ for students and academics to work with real time data. 

Security & Risk

Students and staff need to feel safe and secure, and you need to keep an eye on productivity, reputation and costs. Let us find you a unique, holistic approach to security management that protects your people and assets whilst gives you transparency and predictability on costs.

Health, well-being & comfort

From lighting, to fine dust and CO2; a healthy and productive environment begins inside the building. Happy and healthy buildings significantly increase people productivity and academic results through our building technology and transparent finance.

Smart Spaces

From building data analytics, renewable energy to centralized and integrated building functions, be at the cutting-edge of campus technology. Combine the physical and digital worlds with the latest innovation, all with transparent and manageable finance.
