Jackson Control: Retrofitting Buildings to Save the Planet

Top 10 Building Automation Solution Companies - 2021

Smart building technology has been earmarked as the next revolution in the commercial real estate sector, and the COVID-19 pandemic has only accelerated its adoption. Amidst the rising challenges, Internet of Things (IoT) and smart building technology are emerging as the preferred choice for building owners to meet the demands.

With breakthroughs in various technologies every minute, there are numerous building automation solutions that promise to deliver key building insights and value using artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning, and data analytics and visualization. These insights, however, are dependent on the ability to securely and reliably access the data. While most commercial buildings have some sort of data networking in place, next-generation smart buildings come with unprecedented connectivity requirements.

Contemporary buildings are home to numerous controllers, switches, and electronic hardware. These components rely on wired networks to automate and control mission-critical building functions like HVAC, lighting, security, CCTV surveillance, fire alarms, and elevators. Today, the next generation of wired infrastructure can interlink previously disparate automation networks in a unified, integrated building management system, enabling seamless and efficient control while streamlining complexity.

As such, the technological progressions in the arena are opening up a universe of new possibilities for building automation solutions providers. This implies that enterprises looking for companies providing robust building automation solutions have to choose from a plethora of options. To make this task easier and assist leaders in identifying the right building automation solution providers, Construction Tech Review presents to you, “Top 10 Building Automation Solution Providers - 2021.” A distinguished panel comprising CEOs, CIOs, VCs, Analysts, and the Construction Tech Review editorial board has selected the most promising building automation solution providers.
