These reports include management information on energy consumption and mechanical system performance as well as specific recommendations. Target energy consumption and operational characteristics are identified and variances from predicted results are analyzed, problems identified and appropriate measures for remediation recommended to the owner. | | |
| Demand response products: By correlating control system data with data from networked switchgear and meters, Analytika enables demand response programs, assessing mechanical, electrical and control systems' behavior to select and optimize the sheddable load in buildings without compromising mission-critical activities. | | |
| Create "what if" scenarios By mining the data from our analysis engine, Analytika experts can generate a three-dimensional topological model of your building systems. This provides the ability to measure the impact of proposed changes or improvements before touching your automation system or lifting a wrench. | | |
| Identify energy savings opportunities Hundreds of computer algorithms automatically uncover opportunities and frame solutions to profoundly decrease energy and operational costs. | | |
| Meet sustainability goals Analytika's technology allows you to see precisely where energy loads are being allocated in the system, down to the individual subsystem, or meter. This enables you to pinpoint areas of unnecessary energy loss and take the steps to begin running at optimal efficiency. Implementing Analytika's recommendations can extend the life and improve the performance of your building systems, reducing energy usage and green house gas emissions, and allowing you to meet your sustainability goals now and into the future. | | |
| Work Smartly Analytika ensures your facilities management, engineering, maintenance and controls resources are focused on tasks that will yield the greatest return. It empowers your team with the specific information needed to take a proactive rather reactive approach to the upkeep and improvement of your building systems. | | |
| Expand the reach and awareness of your team Most management teams are already pushed to the limit, making do with less. Analytika monitors and analyzes virtually every component of your critical building systems, dramatically reducing hands-on troubleshooting and diagnosis. This allows your team to zero in on performance issues and frees up resources to make meaningful improvements. | | |
| Real-time fault detection and diagnostics The Analytika system provides the most sophisticated real time fault detection and diagnosis available on the market today. The system contains over 900 proprietary algorithms that have been developed and rigorously tested over many years. These algorithms apply weather information and static data (such as equipment specs and system topography) to operational data from a facility's entire mechanical system, including each piece of HVAC equipment. Real-time fault detection allows you to monitor your system for performance anomalies to ensure you are aware of them before they result in potentially costly failures. It helps you stay ahead of mechanical issues, allowing you to minimize downtime and extend equipment life. | | |
| Automatic root cause analysis Most competing solutions simply take note of equipment faults. Our root-cause analysis engine combines information from historical system data, a three-dimensional topological model of your system and our sophisticated fault detection algorithms to generate accurate, comprehensive root-cause analysis of system faults. This insight ensures that your resolution efforts are targeted, efficient and will effectively resolve the issue. | | |
| Topological system model Our expert analysts work with your building automation system data, drawings and descriptions of your physical facilities and our point processing technology to build a three-dimensional topological model of your system. This model is used to inform our fault detection algorithms and root-cause analysis engine to more accurately identify issues, potential faults and perform accurate root-cause analysis of system faults. The model is also used to construct "what if" scenarios whereby you and the Analytika experts are able to accurately estimate the impact of a change to your system. | | |
| Measure the impact of your efforts Analytika's analytical processing and stored history of your system data enable you to measure the precise impact of your environmental and energy conservation efforts. This will allow you to see precisely how your building was performing, for example, this winter vs. next winter, or according to other specific data frameworks you wish to measure or compare. | | |
| Increase the efficiency and operation of equipment Analytika derives meaningful insights about the equipment in your building from the comprehensive data extracted from your automation system. It monitors and analyzes virtually every component of your critical building systems, identifying anomalies that may indicate a need for proactive or preventative maintenance and specifying ways to commission your building for optimal performance. | | |
| Realize value from your building automation system Analyzing and mining system data for value is our business. We increase the value of your automation system by extracting hundreds of thousands of data points and translating that data into meaningful insights and actionable recommendations aimed at helping you cut costs and boost the performance and productivity of your infrastructure and staff. | | |
| Increase productivity Analytika will ensure you get a handle on the air quality and comfort of your buildings environments resulting in happier, more productive occupants. Since it reduces hands-on troubleshooting and diagnosis, it also increases the productivity of your team, giving them time to not just react to maintenance concerns, but to focus on making key improvements. | | |
| Universal automation system support Our technical operations team has considerable experience interfacing to popular building automation systems and meters using standard protocols such as BACnet, OPC, and Modbus. Whatever system you use, we can connect to it. | | |
| Transparent management of staff and contractors Analytika Portal's built-in tools extend the capabilities of your management staff by flagging system faults or issues and recommending ways to resolve them. It then allows you to generate and track work orders, browse summaries of issues by building, priority or status, and verify the resolution of issues by analyzing new data streams, positively proving that the system has been restored to optimal operation. | | |
| Up to 250% Internal rate of return (IRR) We have example after example to illustrate how, on a purely financial basis, your investment in Analytika will more than pay for itself purely on first-year energy savings basis alone. While continuing to realize energy savings well into the future, you will also benefit from improved building comfort as well as increased organizational, environmental, and mechanical efficiencies, and more. | | |
| Powerful Visualizations, Customizable Dashboards Use Analytika Portal to visualize your data in the way that delivers the most insight for you. You can customize Analytika Portal dashboards to isolate the data output from any part of the system, or specific piece of equipment, via a variety of graphical presentations (charts, graphs, tables) with the click of a button. Select the outputs most important to you, view them in the visualization format that you prefer, save them to your dashboard (or create multiple dashboards), and modify them as you see fit. | | |
| Customizable Reports Our analytical processing and stored history of your system data enables you isolate building performance data according to the specific frameworks you wish to measure or compare. In addition, Analytika Portal provides a rich filtering and visualization toolset which enables you to quickly identify the information that is important to you and view it according to the data format you prefer. | | |
| Monitor all equipment readings with a full history Raw readings take on meaning when combined with supply conditions, energy flows, and fault flags. Analytika stores your system history and uses it to inform fault detection. | | |
| Verify equipment schedules Analytika Portal lets you easily verify that your equipment is operating in the way you prescribe. Were the lights on all weekend in the classrooms? Was the HVAC system running over the weekend at the prescribed temperature? Where systems running when they shouldn't have been?
