An Eagle’s eye view to Building Management System (BMS)

An Eagle’s eye view to Building Management System ( BMS ) Building Management System ( BMS ), also known as Integrated Building Management Systems (IBMS), Building automation system (BAS), Building Management and Control System (BMCS), is a computer-based control system installed in buildings that monitors and controls the building's mechanical and electrical equipment such as ventilation, lighting, power systems, fire systems, and security systems. More specifically, they link the functionality of individual pieces of building equipment so that they operate as one complete integrated system. Building management systems are most commonly implemented in large projects with extensive mechanical, HVAC, and electrical systems. Systems linked to a BMS typically represent 50% of a building's energy usage, if lighting is included; this number approaches up to 70%. BMS systems, sometimes include access control or other security systems such a
