Building Management System

Buildings need a brain to intelligently control the many systems and thousands of data points they can generate. Schneider Electric's Buildings Business provides that brain. Schneider offer an integrated approach that unites multiple systems on one network across enterprises, from a single software platform. Once integrated, data from those systems are assimilated and converted into information that empowers decisions and actions that enhance efficiency, comfort and well being for building occupants and owners. Schneider have helped design and install intelligent building management and security systems that deliver solutions for HVAC, access control, video surveillance, lighting control and energy efficiency. And they deliver results that create a comfortable, economical and secure environment in schools and universities, hospitals, hotels, airports, shopping centres, factories, government buildings and just about any other industry you can think of.

ACCESS CONTROL

Access Control, an Integral part of the system, reduces Security risks by controlling movements through external and internal entrances. It controls unauthorized access, alerts operators to events such as doors left open and keeps personnel to permitted areas. Use of electronic locks and access cards or tokens eliminates the need for mechanical keys. Access rights can be modified easily and quickly and voided if a card is lost. It also provides end users with an audit trail of all access events. Where systems such as access control, intruder alarm, CCTV and fire detection are integrated, a common platform allows easy operation and multiple user interfaces.
