Making building smarter

Design and Documentation

When building operations are optimised, we help improve costs, consumption and comfort.

While some companies have a ‘get it up and running now, and worry about it later’ approach, Systemax sets an industry benchmark in both form and function: working closely with clients to deliver solutions that are sustainable, manageable and cost-effective.

Managing integrated systems is easy with our intuitive programs — designed for usability with dynamic, interactive graphics using web language without special software or plug-ins, they are unrestricted by user licences, fully accessible across product lines and web appliances such as mobile devices, and all with the assurance of sophisticated system protection with multi-level passwords and a Secure Socket Layer (SSL) boasting 128-bit encryption security.

An integral part of energy management is the ability to collate data from the facility’s energy sources including electrical, solar, wind, generator, gas and water. Systemax’s energy management systems provide whole of facility energy profiling for analysis and incorporation into ongoing tuning control strategies. Smart, affordable energy metering solutions incorporating standard communication protocols provide ease of connect ability without being locked into specific products

When it comes to working together, our practices and processes are as thorough as our building solutions.  From start to finish, Systemax ensures peace-of-mind, accountability and efficiency by delivering a comprehensive system documentation plan that includes:

  • Personalised end user interaction to ensure the appropriate system performance opportunities are considered to achieve the very best facility performance at the most economical rate. 
  • Qualified system integration matrixes defining system demarcations and connect ability.
  • Technical scope of works specifications for all services functionality and operation.
  • Detailed functional descriptions of integrated system operations.
  • Detailed points listing and controller-specific wiring diagrams.
  • Detailed LAN (local area network) schematics identifying the appropriate communications cabling configuration.
  • All projects supplied with all the databases, engineering, control logics, graphics and web configuration tools needed to configure and operate the system now and in the future.

  • I have been dealing with Systemax for the last 6 years and cannot recommend their services highly enough. With their state of the art BMS product, combined with extremely efficient installation and programming skills, they always deliver. It's going the extra mile that sets Systemax apart from their competitors.

  • All too often contractors fall short of their commitments. We have engaged Systemax on various projects ranging from simple unit controls, to full 50,000m2 complex BMCS retrofits. Systemax have proven their commitment to delivery time and time again. Their levels of services have rebuilt my faith in the Building Automation industry. The WebCTRL interface is one of the best we have worked with, giving the user real control and useful feedback anywhere, anytime. We would recommend Systemax services and product, and will use them again.

  • Queensland University of Technology (QUT) has engaged Systemax on a continual basis for the last 6 years. Their works have incorporated ongoing BMS rectification works, fault finding and ongoing system tuning to maximise optimal energy management control strategies. Systemax has directly contributed to QUT achieving significant energy consumption reductions associated with the day to day operation of air conditioning systems. Their quality of staff, diligence and professional attitude applied to all tasks they are involved with is a credit to Systemax and make them a pleasure to work with.

  • Santos Place is one of a few 6 Star Greenstar commercial buildings in Australia currently performing to a 5 star NABERS Energy rating. As such, overall building performance via the BMS is critical in optimal energy management. Systemax supplied and installed the site BMS and have excelled in their diligence for ongoing plant and equipment tuning to optimise energy performance. Systemax’s approach to quick and professional support via the web based platform provides an assurance that facility management issues are easily dealt with in a timely manner.

  • In my 30 years experience in the building services industry and having gone through quite a few major BMCS upgrades and / or replacements in that time, I have never experienced a project of this magnitude go so smoothly – particularly in an occupied building (which we all know is a potential nightmare if not approached correctly and sensitively). It is a credit to you all, and a shining example of what can be achieved when a project is properly planned and resourced by people who have a passion to deliver a first class service.
