Campus facilities
A campus can contain buildings with similar room or zone names and different meters serving their facilities. Staff need to know which site an event concerns and which person owns its response. Smart Building Management keeps the site context with meters, events and maintenance tasks, while sensor observations retain the measurement source needed for an informed operating review.
How Smart Building Management is set up for you
Recognizable sites
Facilities Manager maintains building names and locations that staff can use during a response. The meter directory distinguishes energy sources by site and reading mode.
Personal work
Maintenance Technician sees tasks assigned through the mapped person identity. Due and completion dates help the facilities team follow work through the agreed task process.
Observation context
Sensor registration retains the building, zone, metric and unit against the selected operating record. The team can inspect missing or invalid observations before relying on them.
A campus can contain buildings with similar room or zone names and different meters serving their facilities. Staff need to know which site an event concerns and which person owns its response. Smart Building Management keeps the site context with meters, events and maintenance tasks, while sensor observations retain the measurement source needed for an informed operating review.
Begin with a building whose site name, meter identity and response team are understood. Record an operating event in a clearly identified zone and acknowledge it with the actual start. Assign the work to an active responder and verify that the task appears for the correct technician.
Register a sensor relevant to that operating context and capture an observation with its quality. Open the saved sensor and observation, then examine the metric and unit with Facilities Manager. Complete the site task and record event resolution through their separate operating decisions.
Repeat the identity check using a similar zone name elsewhere on the campus. Follow [Sensor registration to observation](/smart-building-management/processes/sensor-to-observation) and [Assigned work to completion](/smart-building-management/processes/assigned-work-to-completion) to rehearse the handoffs before adding other buildings or connecting an external monitoring source.
Features to start with
Sites and Meters
Identify each managed facility and the meters whose readings describe its energy use.
Energy Review and Tariffs
Validate the consumption interval and keep its site, unit and effective tariff context clear.
Operational Events
Record the site condition, acknowledge its actual start and retain when the event is resolved.
Roles on the team
