Healthy Building Technology

- 

Recently, experts voiced their opinion on the importance of understanding big data for buildings, especially with the increase in implementation of IoT enabled sensors and devices in the built environment. At a 2017 roundtable, Kevin Sullivan, KEO International Consultants’ sustainability head of commissioning, said that cities need to look at innovative ways to better manage buildings nearing the end of their lifecycle.

The predicament isn’t always restricted to the built environment. The problem often crops up within new buildings that have several consultants and technologically advanced contractors using the latest BIM systems. Things can also go wrong when contractors leave premises having commissioned the Building Management Systems (BMS).
