Insights and Case Studies

Simple and intuitive user interfaces are making smart control systems accessible to users in light commercial applications. Light commercial building operators lack the time and resources to work with complex navigation, large equipment databases, and elaborate schematic diagrams and spreadsheets. They need interfaces that serve up the information they need, when they need it.

With easier installation and lower upfront cost enabled by plug-and-play technology, smart controls systems are breaking new ground in the light commercial market because they put extensive real-time information into the hands of building owners and managers. Having data at their fingertips, whether they are on-site or remote, enables building managers to make faster, more informed decisions and keep buildings running smoothly and efficiently.

Light commercial building owners need smart controls systems to help them better manage their buildings, comply with new regulations, and communicate with other systems, but the complexity and expense of installation and integration has been a barrier. Plug-and-play technologies are simplifying the process.

Small and mid-sized buildings – long left out of the smart building revolution – are seeing new paths to improved efficiency, productivity and compliance through new technologies scaled for them. Plug-and-play systems are providing light commercial buildings with an easy gateway to the advantages of a smart building: more control, insight, efficiency and cost-savings.
