What is Data Analytics?
Tyson Soutter gives us valuable insights into what data analytics really is for the buildings industry and how it can be used to make better decisions.
Absorbing the Data Explosion
There is an explosion of data in the building industry. Tyson Soutter explains the reasons behind the huge increase, and the risks the building industry is facing.
To start down the journey of a smart building it’s important to implement ongoing maintenance programs that translate data into actionable information through centralized analytics and reporting. This is accomplished by implementing an intelligent infrastructure that can be adaptable based on future needs. This infrastructure drives productivity, enables a new approach to system maintenance, allows you to manage long-term operating costs, and positions your building to leverage fast changing technology.
We recommend a four-step process that incorporates best practices in planning, implementation, and utilization.
