Smart Buildings Consultancy
Ensuring your Smart CNS is fit for purpose
Your Converged Network System (CNS) is the foundation for connectivity of technologies within a smart building environment. With a wealth of experience, we offer a tailored Smart Buildings consultancy service. We work with developers, architects, building consultants, contractors and stakeholders to create a CNS specification that will deliver the outcomes you need for smooth completion – and far beyond.
Defining a vision for your Smart Building
The CNS within a smart building must be designed to securely support the integration of IP Partner technologies, whilst having flexibility to scale for future requirements and growth.
Early engagement for CNS requirements is an essential element of defining any Smart building’s technology plan, and results in significant benefits for cost, user experience, sustainability and operational management.
We’ll work with your team and technology partners to ensure that you have a clear vision of what you need your CNS to deliver in terms of functionality, operability, data, wired connectivity, Wi-fi experience and security. We’ll help you to consider the potential evolving needs of tenants and the evolution of technologies to provide future flexibility, ensuring that the right foundations are in place right from the start.
Ideal’s engagement model bridges the traditional transition between consultancy and delivery. We also recognise that a certain degree of pragmatism and flexibility is required, embracing different inputs, outputs and scopes.
We can help with:
- Early client engagement – attending meetings as part of your team at very early stages to bring a coherent vision to life
- Follow-up recommendations – creating a recommendations document with clear advice on your best CNS and integrated service strategy
- Specification reviews – peer reviewing IT and related building services specifications to ensure they are aligned to support the underpinning strategy
- Support development of Contractor Requirements and Interface matrix – helping you to develop high level designs and developing an interface matrix for technology partners
- 3rd Party Engagement – representing you to your Smart partner ecosystem to support development of your Smart Building Strategy
