Whether you’re running a manufacturing unit or a mid-sized office building, you need a way to keep track of and control its various systems. Traditionally, facilities managers have turned to building management systems (BMS), also sometimes called building automation systems (BAS), to manage their facilities’ heating and cooling plants, air handling units, lighting control, and other core elements. Building Management system after been introduced to this world in 1970, initially it was started with very limited features but within time a lot of changes and modifications had been made, started with the controlling of power and lightening to heating and cooling of a building together with the alarm system as a further modification in order to provide maximum security. Intrusions can be easily monitored with the help of closed circuit television CCTV and other equipment. BMSs are designed to control the main energy-consuming systems in a facility as well as fire and safety equipment. A building management system provides a clear and visible interface through which to manage a myriad of systems such as fire suppression, cooling, electrical systems, lighting and electricity feeds from the utility, electrical circuits and security systems.
Most older buildings must be retrofitted to incorporate building management systems. Today, however, it’s rare for a new building to be built without an integrated BMS, where all the capabilities are incorporated into the building from day one, and the components are controlled by a master control system. The primary function of building management systems is most often to control the HVAC, heating, and ventilation systems, but there are other functions as well. The main components of a building management system and their basic functionalities are as follows:
Many building management systems have additional capabilities and features; some can even be designed specifically for the facility itself. Typically these types of systems use a combination of hardware and software to monitor and manage, including a central server or servers, monitoring stations (for systems administrators), and remote sensors, as well as software that allows you to interact with the system.
Today there’s a better way to manage your building than with a building management system: an advanced data gathering, monitoring, and control system made possible by the Internet of Things (IoT). IoT solutions like Iota’s smart building sensors and analytics platform make it possible to collect detailed data on just about every aspect of your building—big or small—giving you a level of visibility you simply can’t get with BMS. For example, rather than just maintaining temperature, IoT sensors can be placed on your HVAC equipment to detect anomalies in its operation (excessive vibration, for instance), alerting you to problems before a costly failure occurs. By monitoring real-time energy use, you have more actionable data to pinpoint power-hungry, inefficient lights and equipment; change your usage patterns to avoid high demand charges; and make deliberate improvements to reduce your energy consumption. Tactics like this could help you reduce your energy use by up to 30 percent.
