A BluePrint for the Future of Smart Building Retrofits!

Mike Hook from UK-based Master Systems Integrator LMG joined us to discuss a blueprint for the future of smart building retrofits.

Retrofits with a light touch are the best solution to keep costs down and enable rapid deployment. And by prioritizing flexibility in a phased approach, buildings can achieve outcomes fast, with the savings made in the initial phase, funding the subsequent phases.

What should ‘good’ retrofits actually look like? What should a properly implemented process be able to achieve? Building owners and designers should look to create an open, generic MQTT-based smart buildings backbone throughout the building or deploy a proprietary, ‘end-to-end’ engineered, vertically integrated smart system architecture.
