L&T Technology Services (LTTS), a leading global pure-play engineering services company, and global technology leader Dell EMC announced a collaborative relationship to enable holistic, integrated Smart Building initiatives. The joint offerings are expected to drastically reduce implementation time, save up to 40% of facility energy costs and enable up to 15% of operational savings.
One of the limitations in today’s smart building solutions is that they exist in silos – catering to just one facet of a building. Facility managers do not have access to a unified system that can provide an integrated view of various building solutions, such as HVAC and climate control, lighting management, fire safety or parking. In addition, the closed architecture systems make it very difficult to implement such solutions in brownfield projects.
L&T Technology Services, which joined Dell’s IoT Solutions Partner Program in October 2016 as a Preferred Partner, is an experienced system integrator. The company has worked on several turnkey projects involving sensor integration, protocol implementation, edge analytics, cloud storage, application development, and predictive analytics. The L&T Technology Services’ approach is multi-fold:
- Start with an in-depth study to assess what solutions really matter
- Stitch together the best from the various products available in the market
- Maximize usage of existing infrastructure to save costs and speed up implementation time
- Embellish IoT frameworks with Predictive/Preventive maintenance, integrated device management platforms and cloud and mobility support and make them agnostic to communication protocols.
Dell EMC brings to the market cutting edge IoT products in gateways and embedded PCs, infrastructure, communication platforms, and security. Dell’s comprehensive solution portfolio, which includes a system of globally vetted partners, such as L&T Technology Services, reduces complexity and lowers risk while increasing the speed of deploying IoT initiatives. Other benefits of working with leading technology provider Dell include:
- Award-winning IoT-enabling hardware that is industrial grade, and built to perform in the most extreme environments. The Edge Gateway 5000 Series and Embedded Box PC 3000 and 5000 Series were designed by Dell’s expert team of rugged engineers and put through a rigorous 10-step testing process in Dell’s IoT Labs.
- Embedded and application security tools that ensure infrastructure and data remain safe, secure and private.
- Multi-tenancy features that enable different stakeholders in a building (owners, operators, tenants, security and so on) to run and manage their own, private applications within the same sensor network.
By combining domain knowledge with system integration expertise, L&T Technology Services has engineered an i-BEMS platform that aims to revolutionize the concept of a smart building - for facility managers, facility owners, tenants and occupants. The modularity and open architecture of this platform helps facilities stitch together any sensor, any device, and any communication protocol of their choice. i-BEMS acts as an ingenious “system of systems” – bringing together over 50 different modules to enable the next level of personalized user experience, occupant safety, air quality monitoring, and predictive diagnostics. The company says that analysis and field deployments reveal that i-BEMS can save facility energy costs by up to 40% and drive down building operational costs by up to 15%.
