SCS Group is the result of a coming together of a fire and ventilation contractor, a control systems manufacturer and a BMS specialist with the intention of creating a new approach to controlling buildings. Our total building automation approach simplifies the control of building services by combining two or more typically disparate systems (e.g. BMS and security) to remove duplicate hardware and software to provide a leaner, more effective solution.
Benefits of the SCS Approach
Many specialists are typically involved in making a building work and there are lots of interfaces between systems that have to be planned, communicated and implemented on site. There is also much duplication of control networks and programming. With this model it is easy for things to fall between the cracks causing problems in commissioning and compromising the efficient operation of the building.
Added Value
With the Total Building Automation approach we integrate systems at high level and wherever possible run them on a common infrastructure so they work as one. Control panels, sensors and interface units are eliminated, wiring is reduced and programming simplified. This way of working saves time on and off site and can reduce overall costs by as much as 35%.
Peace of Mind
Functionality and safety is improved as all critical building information is available in one place, be that a head end computer, a touchscreen, or a smart phone or tablet. Optimisation of building control is possible leading to energy saving and enhanced building safety for occupants and emergency personnel e.g. fire fighters.
