  • Seminar Details
  • Speakers

IoT, sensors, and data analytics all with multiple specialized vendors sounds complicated and a lot to manage. Asset managers and owners are demanding more building operations data but who will pull it all together and what tools should be used? For the existing built environment, there are legacy systems to consider and operations staff that may not have the technical expertise to efficiently pull smart building strategies together. In this session, the speakers will explore business use cases with real cost savings and efficiencies where multiple sources of data and vendors are helping one property management company achieve their smart building goals. Attend to learn how data is aggregated and integrated onto a single handheld device. With this power at your fingertips, asset managers and owners can make informed decisions in real time and report to stakeholders with more transparency than ever before.
