Top 10 Building Automation Solution Companies — 2019
The future of buildings is smart. With the rapid reduction in the costs of connected sensors and cloud computing, the Internet of Things is penetrating deeper into the construction landscape with devices that intelligently monitor and control the operations of a building. From real-time energy monitoring and automated demand response to demand control ventilation and smart lighting, building automation solutions are being adopted by companies to meet diverse requirements. Backed by such robust building automation solutions, organizations today need to take control of their building’s energy performance and start finding ways to save energy and costs, deliver better occupant experiences and reach higher property values.
Understanding the changing times, Construction Tech Review has compiled a list of top 10 building automation solution providers that facilitate today’s most desirable smart building features and improve a building’s efficiency. We are glad to feature KMC Controls, a manufacturer of building automation and IoT solutions for system integrators, system distributors, IT providers, and OEM partners. KMC is a one-stop turnkey solution for building control with its specialization in open, secure, and scalable building automation.
The list also features Project Frog — a company revolutionizing the building industry by applying technology to streamline design and construction processes. The company has developed a scalable infrastructure that can be inserted anywhere along a build process. Walking the same road is SBT (Smarter Building Technologies) Alliance that harnesses the power of LED lighting, advanced networked controls, renewable energy, and software applications to revolutionize the way energy efficiency products, services, and smart building technologies are delivered to the market and optimized by customers.
We hope the issue of Construction Tech Review helps you build the partnership you and your firm need to enable technology-driven building automation.
