What if your building could talk?
It would tell you when energy is being wasted, when the HVAC needs maintenance, when air quality drops, or when a safety system is down. That’s exactly what Know Your Building® enables—a real-time conversation between you and your building, powered by data.
In this behind-the-scenes look, we unpack how the Know Your Building® platform works, what makes it different, and how it’s changing the game for building owners, facility managers, and tenants across sectors.
What Is Know Your Building®?
Know Your Building® is a wireless, cloud-native Building Management System (BMS) designed to help you monitor, manage, and optimize everything from HVAC to lighting, energy, water, fire safety, and indoor air quality—all in one place.
But beyond the interface lies a world of engineering, integration, and intelligent automation that makes buildings smarter, safer, and more sustainable.
The Core Building Blocks
1. Wireless IoT Sensors
We deploy a wide range of smart sensors throughout your building—temperature, humidity, CO₂, occupancy, energy meters, water flow, and more.
These devices feed real-time data into the system without the need for extensive rewiring or infrastructure overhaul.
2. Cloud-Based Platform
All the sensor data is collected and stored securely in the cloud, making it accessible from anywhere, anytime.
Facility managers can monitor multiple buildings from a single dashboard, enabling centralized control for distributed portfolios.
3. Smart Analytics Engine
Our analytics engine goes beyond dashboards. It learns from usage patterns, detects anomalies, and provides predictive insights that allow teams to take action before problems escalate.
- Want to cut energy costs?
We’ll show you which systems are draining power. - Worried about compliance?
We’ll automate reports for audits. - Concerned about safety?
Get alerts the moment something goes wrong.
4. Automation & Alerts
Know Your Building® allows you to set intelligent rules:
- Turn off lights in unoccupied zones
- Increase ventilation when CO₂ levels rise
- Trigger alerts if a chiller exceeds temperature thresholds
This is how your building starts thinking and acting for itself—with your team in full control.
Why Facility Managers Love It
- No More Manual Logs: Everything is digitized and time-stamped
- Easy to Use: Intuitive UI that works on desktop and mobile
- Scalable: Works for one building or hundreds
- Fast Implementation: Wireless tech means minimal downtime
Whether you’re managing a hospital, school, office tower, warehouse, or shopping mall—Know Your Building® adapts to your needs.
A Day in the Life with Know Your Building®
Morning: Your dashboard alerts you to higher-than-usual overnight energy usage on the 5th floor. You investigate and discover the HVAC ran all night due to a schedule misconfiguration—now corrected.
Afternoon: The CO₂ sensor in a crowded conference room detects poor air quality. The system increases ventilation automatically to maintain comfort and health.
Evening: A pump in the fire system shows abnormal pressure. Maintenance gets an automated alert, and a potential safety issue is resolved before becoming critical.
All of this, without lifting a finger.
The Bigger Picture: Smart, Sustainable, Safe
Behind every feature of Know Your Building® is a mission:
- To reduce energy waste
- To improve safety and compliance
- To make buildings healthier for the people inside
- To help organizations move toward Net Zero goals
And we do it not with promises, but with data you can trust and tools your team can use.
