In addition, buildings are not a friend to the environment – worldwide, they consume 42 percent of electricity and waste 50 percent of it.

But buildings are getting smarter, and with that intelligence comes an opportunity for better management. Data and analytics are providing more visibility into how buildings can more efficient, productive and safe. Increasingly, cities and counties can manage buildings more effectively by using technology to identify patterns and prevent problems. In doing this, they can ultimately optimize building performance, lower energy consumption, improve space utilization, improve portfolio and project management, and gain a comprehensive, integrated view of their building portfolio.
