Industrial buildings
Industrial facilities teams need to understand whether an apparent energy change comes from consumption, a meter reset or unsuitable source data. They also need a clear response when a building outage, alarm or curtailment is recorded. Smart Building Management retains the meter and site context so the energy review and facilities response can be examined on their own evidence.
How Smart Building Management is set up for you
Source interpretation
Energy Analyst records the meter's reading mode and unit before preparing consumption intervals. Estimated, missing and invalid readings remain visible for investigation.
Interval acceptance
Energy Reviewer checks the period and reset handling before accepting a quantity. Non-overlapping intervals keep the same source period from being counted twice.
Site conditions
Facilities Manager acknowledges recorded events, assigns an active responder and retains the actual event period through resolution.
Industrial facilities teams need to understand whether an apparent energy change comes from consumption, a meter reset or unsuitable source data. They also need a clear response when a building outage, alarm or curtailment is recorded. Smart Building Management retains the meter and site context so the energy review and facilities response can be examined on their own evidence.
Choose an energy meter serving a known building area. Capture source readings and rehearse a register-reset case using the agreed source evidence. Review the derived interval and introduce an overlapping submission so the team can inspect the validation boundary.
Record a separate facilities event at the same site and follow it through acknowledgment and assigned work. Keep the event's actual start and end clear, and record task completion under the agreed operating policy. Review the site's tariff records by unit and effective period without assuming a constant rate across a change.
Agree any connection to the facility's monitoring or production systems separately. Use [Meter reading to validated interval](/smart-building-management/processes/reading-to-validated-interval) and [Event acknowledgment to resolution](/smart-building-management/processes/event-to-resolution) for the pilot. Expand only after the participants can identify the source of each accepted quantity and the owner of each response decision.
Features to start with
Energy Review and Tariffs
Validate the consumption interval and keep its site, unit and effective tariff context clear.
Sites and Meters
Identify each managed facility and the meters whose readings describe its energy use.
Energy Readings
Retain source values and quality flags, then derive consumption intervals with the meter's reading mode in view.
Roles on the team
- Facilities Manager
- Maintains site context, acknowledges operating events and coordinates the assigned response work.
- Energy Analyst
- Maintains meter and tariff context and captures readings for consumption review.
- Energy Reviewer
- Reviews source readings and derived intervals before accepting energy quantities for reporting.
- Site Operator
- Registers operating events and captures sensor registrations and observations through the agreed actions.
- Maintenance Technician
- Carries out assigned site work and records its progress and completion under the agreed task policy.
