Making building smarter

Evaluation and Assessment

Building management systems (BMS) and the tools that make running them more efficient are no longer an after-thought — they are now integral to new constructions and existing buildings alike, because they make operations more cost-efficient, effective and environmentally-friendly.

Some companies might be able to make assessments about energy and water conservation, saving or usage, yet few can offer the tools to deliver the promised results.

Our services and tools allow facility operators to plan, manage and initiate energy savings which quickly result in cost savings, using the latest technology to maximise performance.

 We help facilities and tenants save money by assessing their operations to improve efficiency, with our range of audit services including:

  • Overall facility performance assessments for all major plant and equipment impacting energy performance and carbon footprinting.
  • Develop easy ways for operators and support staff to alter operating parameters without compromising comfort levels of occupants.
  • Optimising areas of building operation to reduce consumption and costs by looking at operational hours, out-of-hours operation, comfort versus efficiency and lighting levels.

With a focus on energy reduction and environmental sustainability, Systemax thoroughly assesses building operations with tuning tools that maintain energy-reducing strategies and reduce costs for clients.

  • 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.
