Remote monitoring and management
COVID-19 disrupted facilities management operations and forced facility managers to figure out how IoT technology could help them manage their buildings from a distance. Significant efficiencies and full asset visibility can be achieved along with real-time alerts to provide an overview of information for decision-making. Almost any physical device can be fitted with an IoT sensor and monitored remotely.
Smart sensors help facilities managers to keep properties in good working order and free up engineers to then take on more complex tasks. Other sensors can flag risks, such as burglaries, gas leaks, or poor indoor air quality. Remote dashboard monitoring delivers real-time data to identify issues at a much earlier stage. Some systems use machine learning to automatically adjust and redefine maintenance plans to prolong the life of the appliances.
The benefits of a remote monitoring system are as follows:
- The visibility of a building’...
