Vision: As Global innovators, we lead the engineering design and create solutions for the delivery of safe, cost-effective, reliable, and sustainable buildings that exceed our customers’ expectations. 
Vision for BMS Adoption & Deployment is to take a complex system and simplify it.
Specifically, we are changing BMS Adoption & Deployment from a complex breakable process to a simplified repeatable process, then optimizing it to a virtuous process. Simplification of the BMS Adoption & Deployment means using process mapping to “invent & simplify” new mechanisms.  We are eliminating non-value-added activities and enhancing automation of value-added activities.
 
Mission: Team is the single-threaded leader and owner for the mechanical, electrical, plumbing, fire protection, structural (MEPFS) engineering and enterprise building management system (EBMS) standards for all operations building types. The team also drives sustainability partnerships and is the global leader for third party commissioning standards. The team provides subject matter expertise and design leadership across all regions, businesses, and functions to deliver scalable platform engineering, program development, program management, retrofit project management, template design criteria and template standards. Drives a virtuous cycle of continuous building design improvement. Supports through engineering and sustainability data collection, EBMS pricing transparency and validation, innovation and template optimization and standardization, worldwide.
 
Why is EBMS important to client?

• EBMS is a critical platform to first aid in the health and wellbeing of our Associates

• BMS provides environmental monitoring for CO, H, CO2 and methane, where the BMS (utilizing SIM) can alert, alarm, and take action if necessary.
• Heat Index (HI) monitoring will be deprecated from the existing IT platform and integrated into the BMS in all facilities globally in Q1 2023, becoming the single source of truth for complying with the WHS HI policy.

• To ensure operational uptime by preventing critical systems (HVAC, UPS, fire panel, etc*) from becoming inoperable and shutting down the building.

• EBMS gives RME the ability to do “predictive maintenance” instead of “reactive maintenance”
• Troubleshoot & monitor remotely
• Trend history, remote visibility of HVAC (for RME & AMOC), alarming, O&M performance improvements, auto SIM ticket generation, etc.

• Use EBMS data & implement energy conservation measures (ECM) to help meet Climate Pledge goals by 2040

• Benchmarking energy usage, electrical metering integration for metrics, cost cutting visibility, and ILFI reporting
• Providing a “data lake” for stakeholder teams to utilize the data to drive business specific cost cutting initiatives
• Adjusting setpoints & schedules, economizer optimization for avg 7% to 9% operational savings
• Future integration of renewable energy-solar, wind, hydrogen etc.

• The EBMS will facilitate future machine learning (ML) functionality

• Advanced analytics, data driven designs
• In development for release (pending additional funding cuts) is advanced analytics and machine learning that will generate additional energy and maintenance savings above and beyond what we’re seeing today.
