42
number of faulty sensors were
identified ahead of the next
maintenance cycle
The building performance was
monitored and detected faults at an
early stage before they led to
bigger problems
Tracking down facility operations
of units led to reduced energy
consumption by the equipment
Reduction of energy consumption and
occupant discomfort as the facility
manager was equipped to fix the VAV
boxes leaking airflow
Better internal environment and
improved occupant satisfaction by
monitoring sensors and conditions
more closely
Corrective actions taken to ensure air
condition remained as expected
Improved visibility of buildings by
facility management systems
Flexibility of sharing results with
customers and tenants
Effective management of
operational costs
The overall improvements in the
building systems have led to cost
savings and that is a differentiator for
Sun Plaza to attract more customers
for a sustainable business opportunity.
“Building operators across the Middle
East are under pressure to make facilities
more green, safe and productive, all
while reducing operating costs. To
achieve this, building and facility
managers in the region are utilizing
IoT to their advantage. IoT is creating
huge opportunities for operators by
enabling valuable data analysis for more
insightful and accurate decision making,”
said Philipose Jacob, Regional General
Manager, Honeywell Building Solutions.
“It is important that we continue
to inform decision makers on the
opportunities presented by IoT and how
they can continue to develop smarter
buildings using cloud technology.”
Honeywell’s outcome-based service
Honeywell introduced Outcome Based
Service, which is a cloud-enabled
building management service, to make
the region’s facilities greener, safer and
more productive. The service helps
prioritise building maintenance activities
where they can have the most impact on
overall building performance.
Outcome Based Service combines
advanced automation and data analytics,
and enables service engineers to assess
and scrutinise building assets around
the clock, promoting the identification of
anomalies and misconfigurations earlier
than traditional maintenance and helping
save time and money.
According to Honeywell, smart
buildings are the fundamental
building blocks of a smart city, and the
announcement of Outcome Based Service
is the latest addition to Honeywell
Building Solutions’ growing connected
services portfolio. The portfolio leverages
the connectivity of buildings in the
Middle East to improve how they operate
and the experiences they offer for those
who visit and work within them.
By leveraging the Internet of Things,
cloud-based services will continue
supporting the development of smarter
buildings. Outcome Based Service
taps building connectivity and sensors
with the goal of ensuring that building
equipment is performing at its best.
Results from early pilot deployments
have shown it can help organisations
cut energy spend while cutting reactive
service calls.
Honeywell’s Connected Services
portfolio leverages the power of
connectivity to improve how buildings
operate and the experiences they offer to
occupants. Drawing from the collective
power of IoT technologies, mobile
applications and the domain expertise of
Honeywell’s service engineers, the new
service approach transforms buildings
into productive organisational assets.
