The SRI catalog, an interesting checklist for integrating smart buildings

The SRI catalog, an interesting checklist for integrating smart buildings

The decision to make a building intelligent is best made as early as the concept phase of a construction or renovation project. Yet technology can also be integrated incrementally afterwards. Admittedly, this approach requires a careful inventory of the possibilities, followed by a conscious choice of focal themes. Unfortunately, no generally applicable checklist is available today. An interesting holdout is the SRI's underlying smart services catalog, although this tool is essentially not designed for that. At least that is what an analysis conducted at the Galilée Building in Brussels shows.

The Galilée building demonstrates that it is possible to identify improvement opportunities and make an existing office complex smarter that way.

Is your building ready for the future? Look now for that energy renovation!

Is your building ready for the future? Soon it will not be you but your tenant who decides whether your office or shopping center is energy efficient enough. Buildings that are not energetically up-to-date will be less comfortable and more expensive to operate than new or renovated alternatives. That will make them less attractive on the rental market.
