System Management
Support
Most purchased items need to be supported. If the purchased item is considered an investment and/or an asset it should provide ongoing benefits. To ensure assets return the greatest benefit it would be considered wise to ensure ongoing support is available. dac offers such support plans for every client.
Health Checks
Is your system under a management scheme?
If not, how healthy is the system?
If so, do you have reports from your management provider informing you how “Healthy” you system is. An unhealthy system may be providing an unhealthy environment for your occupants.
Calibrations
Calibration and ongoing calibration of an Automation System is essential to ensure optimum performance of a system and help to maintain the buildings ratings.
A device out of calibration can manifest itself in unnecessary operation of plant equipment. Unnecessary operation of plant equipment can result in additional operational costs, shortening the lifecycle of plant items, a poor NABERS ratings, a decrease asset value and dissatisfied stakeholders.
Optimisation
Just because the plant has always operated that way does not equate to that’s the way it should always operate.
Optimising a system maybe as simple as reviewing the schedules, it may require changing the location of devices or it may be addressed by an engineered solution – Optimising should start with existing systems within the facility. dac will work with customers to gain the greatest performance a facility has to offer, with the installed equipment. If the equipment has not existed beyond its lifecycle, it should not be replaced.
