Smart building
A smart building is a term widely used today to refer to the use of technology in providing:
Communications “Telephony, Internet access & Video”, Security “CCTV Surveillance & Access Control”, Energy saving and Resource control “Electricity, Lighting, Lifts, Heating, ventilating, air conditioning, water, Gas and oil”, Car park management and utilization, 24/7 monitoring, operating and facility management, Billing services to modern or modernized facilities.
These facilities could be offered to Commercial, Residential towers, Hotels, Hospitals, government buildings, or any other type of building.
From the above definition, it is clear that the scope of intelligent building is wide and diverse. Regardless of this diversity, building owners are motivated to implement such services in various degrees by the following:
- Providing tenants with modern and secure communications and information capabilities along with other comfortable lifestyle services that allow owners to charge higher rental rates and get better return on their investment.
- Providing facility owners with efficient and cost effective tools to operate the facility reducing the ongoing operating costs and raising their profitability rates.
- Allowing facility owners to meet the ever evolving strict environmental regulations imposed by environmental, municipal, and governmental organizations on a worldwide basis.
- A direct result of the above is higher ongoing revenue facility that benefits the financial results. And in turn can add value in any selling transaction.
With the above in mind, Tawasul Services set its Intelligent Building services strategy and built its capabilities and partnerships that facilitate the implementation of facilities owners’ vision and long term business objectives.
