Smart Buildings Commercial spaces are undergoing digital transformation connecting HVAC, lighting, environmental sensors, security and safety equipment to lower operating cost and risks. Key Benefits: Real-time alerts forewarn of equipment or occupancy concerns Remote monitoring automates building operations by triggering preventive maintenance actions Paper to electronic transformation enables better operational efficiencies through data analysis and forecasting

What to look for Target this solution to commercial space users to maximize resource efficiency, reduce cost and risk, and increase visibility across operations. Building mounted sensors provide a constant flow of data to Azure. Real-time data streaming analytics helps you identify events and understand usage patterns. Machine learning predictive capabilities enables the transition from reactive to proactive operations and maintenance actions. Draw upon external data sources such as weather forecasting and link to other internal systems such as Dynamics CRM.
