Connectivity is one of the technical core requirements of any functional building in today’s digital world. Organizations worldwide continue to invest in wireless infrastructure upgrades due to increasing smart devices and greater data use.

Cybersecurity is a moving target. What is safe and secure today may not be tomorrow. This is especially true for building technologies. Today’s building market trends, such IoT, cloud connection and IT/OT network convergence, put the need for cybersecurity front and center. No longer just the concern of IT professionals, cyber threats can impact anyone in the building automation industry. The question how cybersecurity can be best addressed is critical. For those who own, operate or design smart buildings, a new technology is being created and standardized. In our free webinar, experts will explain BACnet/SC from a technical aspect and tell you why it is a game changer for the building automation industry!

The world is getting smarter and more connected. Yet, adding or collecting more building data in the Cloud or onsite serves little purpose without actionable ways to characterize or use it. Luckily, there are cost-effective ways to make better-informed decisions about building operations to meet the needs of occupants today without incurring additional engineering time or costs. 

The impact of occupant health based on indoor air quality (IAQ) can significantly affect a building’s ability to reopen and stay open in the future. Solving these challenges requires a new way of thinking in facility management. State-of-the-art digital building technologies make sense of data stored in devices and systems, reducing data complexity, and automating data handling to deliver real-time building intelligence for smarter, more responsive building decisions that keep occupant health top of mind.

Learn how Bangor Savings Bank achieved increased productivity, comfort and energy savings using Desigo Total Room Automation at their new headquarters.  This webinar will review what it took to specify the job for lighting, shades and HVAC and how they are optimally operating a healthy building where employees enjoy coming to work.

ASHRAE Guideline 36 provides uniform sequences of operation for HVAC systems to maximize energy efficiency and performance, provide control stability, and allow for real-time fault detection and diagnostics. 

This session covers common pain points answered, features, benefits and an overview of OpenAir actuators, application and installation best practices for Roof Top Units (RTU), Fire and Smoke applications, Variable Air Volume (VAV) and sizing, selection and cross reference made easy using Siemens HIT (HVAC Integrated Tool).

The Internet of Things (IoT) requires more systems and data points to be managed by Building Automation Systems (BAS), resulting in mountains of critical building data that can be captured to deliver building intelligence to building owners and facility managers. By incorporating Haystack, owners, engineers, and service providers can begin to make sense of the vast amounts of data stored in building devices and systems.

Today’s school districts are facing increasing challenges to stay open and manage their environmental comfort, HVAC, and lighting systems to boost efficiency and maintain a healthy indoor environment for students and faculty. The implementation of Haystack in building automation systems helps to define and use critical building data in schools to facilitate real-time data modeling and analytics for better decision making, proactive maintenance strategies, and reduced OPEX costs.

This 60-minute session held November 19, 2020, features experts from Akin Gump who further explain the scope of Qualified Improvement Property (QIP) tax deductions related to the amendment in the 2020 CARES Act. The panel provides general information about key guidelines to expensing and how it applies to  non-residential building tax payers. Eligible interior building improvement can include fire protection systems and devices—including system migration, building management systems, security systems and devices, sensors, valves, actuators, and other HVAC devices, and more.
