Technical monitoring

Building performance optimisation through technical monitoring from TÜV SÜD ensures your building is at peak performance. This includes fine-tuning the efficiency and effectiveness of building systems, including HVAC and automation technologies.

For businesses, building performance optimisation is essential to reduce operational costs and improve energy efficiency. Problems arise when technical building equipment is incorrectly or poorly integrated with building automation systems such as heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC). This can lead to high energy and operating costs due to discrepancies in the integration between technical equipment and automation systems. 

Additionally, incorrect or flawed designs can result in frequent system malfunctions, causing urgent and costly repairs. Inadequate ventilation and inefficient HVAC systems contribute to poor air quality, which may cause health issues for building occupants. 

Technical monitoring offers visibility to identify, troubleshoot, and rectify these issues with ease. It allows building systems to meet required sustainability goals and comply with energy efficiency regulations, such as the building energy act (GEG) and the EU Building Directive (EPBD). This prevents potential penalties and fines. Proper building performance optimisation also helps overall occupant comfort and increases the value of your building. 

Building performance optimisation is a complex process – It requires technical know-how to navigate complex integration between automation, building systems, and existing infrastructure. Keeping up with technological advancements in the industry and evolving sustainability regulations is equally important.

At TÜV SÜD, we have an extensive network of global experts who can recognise and remedy these problems. A TÜV SÜD data box is installed at the building automation interface to collect operations and energy usage data. The data is then analysed to uncover underlying problems and derive improvement measures.

Achieve your sustainability goals by refining building operations and minimising CO₂ emissions. Our regular technical monitoring services can minimise energy and operating costs. It can also lessen wear and tear on technical systems, thereby minimising your troubleshooting efforts. Overall, these efficiencies increase user satisfaction and enhance property value.

We offer services that harmonise building systems, boosting performance and reducing operational disruptions:

• Analysing energy usage and implementing strategies minimise high operational costs.
• Running tests to detect system failures in advance and providing actionable insights to avoid unexpected malfunctions.
• Conducting regular performance evaluations to check air quality and promote a comfortable and healthy environment for all your occupants.
• Offering guidance and support on seamless integration of new building automation systems with existing infrastructure.
• Keeping you in line with legal requirements and meeting all necessary energy efficiency regulations and standards to avoid possible fines.
• Developing clear and intuitive dashboards to monitor building performance, troubleshoot effectively, and improve performance.
