Automation design (RIA)
SD systems, BMS, room control, control engineering, SCADA, and operational systems designed for real-world operation.
A building with sound technical systems but poor automation will often use more energy than one with average systems and well-engineered automation. Automation ties the installations together — it deserves its own design, not an afterthought to the HVAC delivery.
What we design
- SD systems and BMS with full sequence descriptions, not just point lists
- Room control for ventilation, heating, cooling, lighting, and solar shading
- Control engineering: PI/PID design and tuning, cascade control, and demand-based strategies
- SCADA and centralised operational monitoring for portfolios
- Integration with energy metering, EOS, and portfolio-level ESG reporting
Deliverables
- Functional descriptions for each subsystem and system-to-system interactions
- I/O lists, signal-flow diagrams, and control schematics
- Tender documentation, evaluation, and verification of the supplier's application
- Functional testing and follow-up through the operational phase
Why it matters
- 60–80 % of energy deviations in new buildings stem from automation faults, not the technical systems
- Operators get a system that can be run without specialist expertise
- Owners get a system that can feed data directly into ESG systems
