The average BMS is effectively obsolete. Outdated software, commissioning faults and poor controls lead to wasted energy and excessive energy bills. It's easily fixed.
The big names don't care if you are wasting energy. When you ask for help, you will often get sent a sales-person. You deserve better.
While efficiency is still the number one priority, opportunities are emerging to further cut costs through intelligent demand management to fit the UK's changing generation mix.
The process is simple. We inspect the system and seek to answer these questions:
Is the Plant fully improved?
Can it be utilised better?
Is the BMS up to the job?
Or is it outdated or obsolete?
Are the controls intuitive, easy to use and optimised to save energy?
Based on our inspection, we can suggest a plan to modernise your BMS in a way that gives you the following benefits:
Because existing plant control is optimised and the innovative retrofit solutions are relatively inexpensive to install, cost savings are both immediate and substantial - as much as 50% on energy bills.
These cost savings can have an significant impact upon operating budgets and they are repeated year on year.
You can read more about these savings in our exemplar.
Unlike the considerable investment required to change to LED lighting, our innovative retrofit solutions can modernise any Building Management System with much reduced initial investment, allowing for short payback periods - often within the same accounting period.
To find out more about short payback periods, read our exemplar.
It is not unusual to find that 50% of the energy we put into our buildings is wasted. Innovative control philosophies coupled with new products can help to reduce energy consumption whilst simultaneously improving the users' environment and reducing maintenance costs.
To see what we have achieved for our clients, read our exemplar.
Our modern BMS solutions can easily measure and verify the achieved reduction in energy consumption. This ensures that all stakeholders can appreciate the positive impact upon their carbon footprint. Sustainability is not just realised, it is demonstrated.

Another significant benefit in upgrading your BMS using our innovative retrofit solutions, is the easy-to-use and ultra-accessible controls that any employees can use, whether maintaining the system or accessing environmental and maintenance data.
We have developed clean, intuitive interfaces that allow technicians to easily maintain the BMS and optimise its efficiency.
