Abstract

Automation and Integration of Equipment Functionality Reduce Costs, Drive Demand

Given that thousands of buildings are equipped with separate lighting, security, heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems, there is a strong demand for sophisticated controls to incorporate these complex applications. Automation and integration of all equipment functions represent the greatest area of advancement within the building technology arena. Interest is growing for building automation systems as the benefits of reduced resource consumption, increased safety and security, and enhanced occupant comfort are realized by end-users.

This Frost & Sullivan research provides detailed analysis of the North American building automation systems. By exploring emerging trends and identifying successful strategies, this study offers readers an essential guide to the future of the field.

Interoperability of Systems Key to Industry Growth

"The interoperability challenge is enormous because very few end users have the option to completely upgrade expensive building systems to ensure equipment and communication languages match," says the author of this research. To overcome this hurdle, industry participants are utilizing open protocol systems, which allow building control technologies to support and manage different networks from a common front-end workstation.

Compatibility among diverse components is expected to reduce the amount of labor required to install new equipment. This, in turn, will allow greater profitability for control manufacturers and added value for end users due to lower up-front costs. In an attempt to capture a larger consumer base, some participants are relying on Microsoft Windows-based operating systems to make control software programs more familiar to end users.

Internet Networking Increases Efficiency and Consumer Appeal

"A major advance in networking technologies is the Internet because it is constantly evolving," states the author. Building owners are adopting innovative web-based paradigms in building operations to meet the needs of the new generation of computer savvy occupants.

Online monitoring of equipment will improve maintenance and operation processes as systems can be checked from a single, networked personal computer (PC). More efficient operations will reduce energy use and maintenance costs.

This Frost & Sullivan research provides the most up-to-date information available and presents a clear view of this industry's growth opportunities, supplying your company with the essential tools to formulate a successful business plan.
