How IoT can reduce costs in the management of real estate.
The public sector as a real estate operator relies on IoT to optimize costs for maintenance and cleaning contracts, reduce vacancies in space management, improve maintenance cycles of technical equipment and air quality.
Initial situation
Existing rigid maintenance contracts
Fixed costs independent of actual demand
Vacancies in space management
Empty runs in administration
Already installed IoT sensors on the test facility for various physical quantities
Possibility of integration for other simple applications being explored
The challenge was to find out how much the rooms are used by meetings and what the prevailing indoor air quality is. Also, whether the plumbing systems could be controlled based on frequency of use. How many openings and closings of a gate or barrier can occur between maintenance appointments, as well as stage-based management of recycling stations. Whether the reading of energy meter data is possible should also be clarified.
Requirement
Technical and financial requirements
Preparation and visualization of data in individually designable dashboards
Location-independent access from any device to the platform with real-time data
Automatic alarm messages in case of events and limit violations
Easy handling and integration of interfaces to IoT solutions
Solution
Tesenso was able to solve the various high requirements and challenges with its many years of expertise and a holistic solution from a single source. The requirements for the various physical units of mass can each be displayed via integrated dashboards. Pattern recognition, event reporting and the requirement for a flexibly displayable dashboard on the platform are thus guaranteed.
Added value
Increased employee productivity and more efficient cleaning processes
Reduction of sick days due to improved indoor air quality
Usage analysis of the premises via number of persons in real time
Optimization of costs for office space and infrastructure
Reduction of no-shows through demand assessment
The added value achieved by the Tesenso solution fully covers all desired requirements and needs. For example, by analyzing room occupancy and improving air quality, employees' health and quality of work can be increased in a targeted manner. Increased productivity, reduction of no-shows, reduction of sick days, on-demand emptying of recycling centers and lower CO2 costs are just a few more examples. Through the transparency of processes, higher quality of the working environment and massive resource savings, a much higher efficiency of property management can be achieved.
