Heating, lighting, air conditioning and other building functions now increasingly require information and telecommunication (ICT) networks in order to function in the modern world. This is not only demands a outright technical upgrade but also requires an entirely new way of thinking throughout […]

A building automation system (BAS) acts like the central nervous system for a smart building. Through the installation of sensors, software, a network and a cloud-based data store, BAS allows building owners and tenants to monitor, maintain and manage the mechanical, electrical and electromechanical functions within a structure. However, high cost has meant that only […]

Traditionally, the most fundamental rule of commercial real estate (CRE) is location. However, while being close to customers, suppliers and employees remains an important factor, there is a newer and increasingly significant consideration for CRE in the modern age – Information.
