TRANSCRIPT
Information is great. Knowledge is even better. Every facility has an abundance of information that can be gathered, analyzed and leveraged for more energy-efficient operations. But you need to know where to look for it—and more importantly, what to do with it. McKenney’s bdoc® Business Intelligence for Buildings, or BI for BuildingsTM, is a next-generation facility intelligence platform that leverages data generated by building control systems, enterprise applications, asset management systems and other associated facility management applications.The intuitive, easy-to-use interface gives energy and facility managers unprecedented access to critical data so they can make informed business and operational decisions quickly, streamline processes and enhance efficiencies throughout their facilities.
Most facilities have a mix of different systems for energy and asset monitoring, physical and cyber security and traditional IP-based automation and control that are installed over a number of years by multiple manufacturers. McKenney’s bdoc is your single-source interface to extract data from these standalone systems and integrate the data into a centralized platform for more comprehensive analysis.
bdoc connects to multiple open protocol building control networks, databases and browsers. With its built-in, “big data” NoSQL map-reduce technology, bdoc can store virtually unlimited information to track trends and performance over extended periods. It offers secure, remote access from any web-enabled device and simplifies integration with other asset monitoring systems, from fire alarms to inventory control to utility metering services.
Buildings are constructed to stay in one place—building operators are not. That’s why bdoc is designed with proven, well-known technologies to integrate seamlessly in any work setting. It features a user-friendly, intuitive interface and is accessible with a wide range of mobile platforms for convenient access anywhere at any time. The system offers other advantages, including:• Real-time access to data organized just for you• Current or historical data available in seconds• Drill down menus for easy access to key information with less browsing• Minimal set-up and training
With its open framework design, bdoc can be applied to a wide variety of buildings and environments. The application can be hosted at your facility or remotely in a secure data center. And whether your enterprise is small or large, located at one site or spread out across multiple locations, bdoc can accommodate a
broad range of enhancements quickly. Meter and utility cost data can be obtained from web services or customer portals for real-time data collection from external sources. These portals can provide current and projected pricing to determine reduction and consumption curtailment strategies during electrical peak periods. bdoc also simplifies future integration to other facility asset monitoring systems for fire alarm, elevator operation, access control, video surveillance, inventory control and more.
