Optimizing Buildings Using Analytics and Engineering Expertise by Brandy Moore Executive summary When fully utilized, Building Management Systems (BMS) offer facility managers many advantages. Harnessing building data to help correct root-cause energy inefficiencies is one area that is increasingly important yet challenging. This paper shows how leveraging BMS data through building data analytics software and combining it with expert engineering services creates actionable intelligence that can reduce HVAC energy costs by up to 30%. 998-2095-04-15-14AR0 Optimizing Buildings Using Analytics and Engineering Expertise Introduction Building Management Systems (BMS) offer facility managers many advantages, including intelligent information about a facilitys operational performance and energy use that can help identify root causes and correct deficiencies in buildings. By harnessing building data properly, facility owners and operators can better realize the full return on their BMS investment as they save energy, reduce operating and maintenance costs, and improve building comfort. But in order to realize these returns and leverage the full power of their BMS, building operators need significant training, in-depth understanding of their facilities, and often additional tools to aggregate and make sense of the growing volume of data in a timely manner. Over the past decade, several types of tools have come onto the market to fill this need, from dashboards to automated analytics to...
