How AI is Giving Businesses a Competitive Edge Through Smart Buildings
In the past, simply being able to clap and turn the lights on and off was seen as futuristic technology. With the Internet of Things, the future of innovative building functionality is moving quickly into AI integration. Now, smart buildings can automate just about everything from security to energy temperature settings in each and every room.
The case for smart buildings is indisputable, providing businesses with greater insight, cost savings, and an overall more enjoyable experience for patrons when they visit the property.
Here are 3 reasons why you should consider a smart building:
1. Cost Reduction:Businesses are always looking for ways to cut costs — it’s how they improve their bottom line. With a smart building, you can reduce energy and water usage, saving the planet while cutting down on what can be 42% of your electrical energy consumption over time. A smart HVAC system has sensors to turn lights on and off, as well as the ability to sense room temperatures and adjust it accordingly. More than just automation, smart building orders can review statistics to make even better cost reduction choices in the future.
2. Efficiency:Think of how much time is gained back when your employees don’t need to double as the building cleaners, mechanics, and monitoring agents? With a smart building, things like heating, air conditioning, lighting, and security are now managed by a computer system, so your talent can focus on doing what they were really hired to do. From this improved efficiency, companies will gain a competitive edge over the competition, able to design, develop, and produce more products and services than previously — without expanding payroll.
3. Community:More than just your business, smart buildings actually contribute to the overall vibrancy and sustainability of surrounding communities and cities. From the data aggregation, cities can reduce energy usage while increasing efficiency, integrating smart buildings slowly into every part of the town. From the collected big data, the AI technology can mine the important statistics and streamline the overall process. Not to mention the reduction in energy and waste disposal will contribute to a healthier environment and air quality for everyone living in it. Corporate social responsibility is a hot topic today, which is why you want your company to be synonymous with social investment.
