From Reactive to Proactive: Sarah’s Journey to Smarter Facility Management
Client
Sarah is a Facility Manager for a mid-sized commercial office building, responsible for energy, maintenance, security, and occupant comfort.
Challenges
Sarah juggled multiple systems and platforms—manually checking energy consumption, reacting to breakdowns after the fact, responding to security alarms, and monitoring indoor air quality. With limited staff and growing tenant demands, unplanned downtime, energy waste and comfort complaints were squeezing her margins and her time.
Solution
Sarah implemented Clarity IQ Pro and Clarity IQ Maintenance, along with a suite of smart sensors and an integrated security system. This gave her a single platform to manage building operations intelligently and proactively.
Results
- Unified Energy Dashboard: Mobile-accessible, real-time control over lighting and HVAC based on occupancy.
- Predictive Maintenance: Vibration and performance analytics on rooftop HVAC units trigger alerts before failures.
- Smart Security Integration: Cameras and door-locks feed access attempts into a single interface, automatically blocking unauthorized entries.
- Air-Quality Monitoring & Control: CO₂, temperature and humidity sensors feed the system, which dynamically adjusts ventilation.
- Remote Management: A single app lets her check water usage, detect leaks, and tweak system schedules—even off site.
- Occupancy Sensors: Lights and temperatures automatically adjust based on occupancy, ensuring energy savings without compromising comfort.
