BUILDING AUTOMATION

When it comes to managing workspace and production environments, the best mechanical systems in the world will only take you so far if they do not allow you to monitor, adjust, and respond to environmental changes.

That’s where our controls systems come in. Using state-of-the-art software and engineering packages from Schneider Electric, the world’s leading provider of comprehensive building automation systems, we offer our customers versatile, cost-effective controls that precisely calibrate workspace environments, realize substantial savings in energy expenditures, and meet a wide range of facility management needs, including control over physical access and camera surveillance.

Because all of these functions run on the same software platform, they give our customers instant access to mission-critical data through centralized control stations and monitors. And because the entire system can be connected to our main office in St. Cloud, we can remotely monitor and immediately respond to any situation as it happens.

Automation Technology
The technology behind our controls systems requires expertise in computerized applications, electrical engineering, environmental engineering, systems networking, and construction. We make sure our technicians are experienced and well-versed in every area. They receive intensive, ongoing factory training at Schneider Electric  campuses in Texas and elsewhere on the latest developments in what is one of the fastest growing and fasted changing fields in the commercial building industry. We have been working with Schneider Electric since 1993, and we’re very proud of our ranking in the top 10% of Schneider Electric world-wide partners - no mean feat for a company that has extensive operations throughout Asia, Europe, and the Americas.

Building Solutions That Work!
Our commitment to finding creative solutions for our customers’ workspace needs shapes every phase of our projects. When a customer comes to us with plans for a brand new facility, we work carefully with the architects to integrate our access control with their door designs. We coordinate with network providers and electricians to develop strategically consistent locations of sensors, monitoring stations, and other modules. We share our experience in using natural light and other environmentally engineered, green building  features that realize significant energy savings. We always go the extra mile to meet a customer’s specific needs.

Sustaining Your ROI
At the end of project, our goal is to enable our customers to monitor proactively the performance of their mechanical systems so they can ensure a comfortable workplace for their employees, meet their technical and production needs, no matter how rigorous or specialized, and sustain their ROI through smart management of energy expenditure and usage.
