A modern way to manage buildings

Which space is being used when? Are all the doors and windows shut at night? Is there someone still in the freezer room after closing time? How many people are entering the canteen? What is the air quality in the conference room like? The comprehensive IoT solution Building Monitoring & Analytics has the answers to these questions. Room sensors record people moving, the status of windows and doors, temperature, humidity, brightness or CO2 levels. This data is then encrypted and transmitted according to German data protection laws. Device management then takes place on our IoT platform, the Cloud of Things. Special software analyzes and visualizes the data in almost real-time, helping lower building management costs and improve customer service. Whenever set thresholds are crossed, the system alerts technicians, so they can intervene.

Your benefits with Building Monitoring & Analytics in overview

Faster rollout
Building Monitoring & Analytics is preconfigured and can be used as a retrofit solution. It comprises various sensors, IoT gateways and our IoT platform Cloud of Things. The sensors and gateway use the low-energy wireless network LoRaWAN. NarrowBand IoT (NB-IoT) has also been available as a transmission standard since 2019.

Diverse sensors
The battery-powered sensors record movement by people, as well as the opening and closing of doors and windows. Moreover, they can measure temperature, humidity, light, noise and CO2levels. Retrofit sensors can also be installed on regular doors, windows, desks and walls.

Scalable software
The IoT platform Cloud of Things visualizes and analyzes the data, which can be used as the basis for the integration into other IT systems like CAFM, ERP, PLM or CRM. It can be easily expanded for additional users, sensors and gateways. This allows for limited testing of solutions that can later be scaled up to encompass the company’s entire building or campus.

Application examples for every sector

The application comes with all the sensors necessary to monitor the climate inside offices and conference rooms.
Companies can use it to measure and visualize temperature, humidity, brightness, noise and CO2 levels. Users define alerts to keep facility management informed of unwanted changes in critical comfort parameters, so quick action can be taken.
Open office areas are used quite differently than separate meeting rooms and individual workspaces.
Companies can deploy motion sensors to analyze which desks and rooms are especially busy at specific times. By visualizing data and defining certain values, the facility management can determine if the number of desks and rooms need to be changed. Door sensors installed at toilet entrances will determine usage levels over the course of the day, allowing for better planning of cleaning services.
Many companies have critical spaces where people should only enter briefly or not at all. These include freezer rooms, high-security areas, painting spaces and protective zones for robots.
Motion sensors recognize when people are present. And door sensors determine if they’ve been kept open too long. Alerts and notifications can be set up, so facility management employees can react promptly.

NarrowBand IoT: Trailblazer for the Internet of Things

The wireless technology NarrowBand IoT was specially developed for the Internet of Things. The network offers low operating costs, low energy consumption and high building penetration. This video introduces the advantages of the technology, how it works and a few application examples.
