A Building Management System (BMS) is an intelligent monitoring and control system installed in buildings to monitor, control, optimize and provide various reports for the building’s facilities, mechanical, and electrical equipment for comfort, safety, and efficiency.
A BMS is highly recommended for the buildings (mostly high-rise) as it offers various benefits including:
- Effective monitoring, control and optimization of the lighting and HVAC system usage as well as other services such as the lifts and alarm systems.
- Significant savings in energy usage ranging from 18% to 60%.
- Early detection of system faults - Effective use of the maintenance staff resulting in time and money savings
- Good control of internal comfort conditions
- Local and remote control and monitoring of the building resulting in great convenience.
- More satisfied occupants - Reports / Logs for decision making
