For a smart building, the interaction of various IoT solutions is necessary. But which providers keep their promises? How do the added values become visible? And how do you measure the (economic) benefits? The AIRE SmartLab<\/a> is a test environment for smart building solutions in which these questions are answered. <\/strong>Johannes Nussbaum, Head of Innovation at Art-Invest Real Estate<\/a>, gives an insight into the Smart Building Lab and reports on best practices and challenges from his wealth of experience. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n

Testing and trying out IoT solutions<\/h2>\n\n

In the AIRE SmartLab, modern smart building solutions are tested for their significance in a real context: How easy is the installation – <\/span>\n Plug & Play<\/span>\n<\/a> or complicated commissioning processes? How good is the customer service when problems arise? How reliable is the technology? How susceptible is the solution to disruptions and is the service provider proactive? What insights are created? What added value does the solution bring us? For a smart building, an interaction of different applications is necessary. Above all, the networkability of the solutions is central to this.<\/span><\/p>\n\n

In smart buildings, there are a variety of interfaces: between the actors and also between the building and its technical systems. These need to be connected with each other through IoT solutions in order to make new forms of services and user experiences possible. The focus is on the question of how well technologies work together, because a sensor alone does not offer added value. <\/span><\/p>\n\n

Selection – What should be measured?<\/h2>\n\n

When selecting a solution, the focus is primarily on costs and benefits. To better assess this, it is helpful to define a framework. In this way, it can be determined which added value is created by solutions and what significance they have. Existing frameworks such as the 3-30-300 rule can also be used. This describes the cost structure for the tenant of a building: \u20ac3\/m\u00b2 utilities, \u20ac30\/m\u00b2 rent and \u20ac300\/m\u00b2 employee costs (<\/span>Jones Lang LaSalle<\/span><\/a>). This makes it clear which issues should be prioritized, such as employee productivity and health.<\/span><\/p>\n
