Turn Building Alarms Into Operational Action

The value of a building management system integration is not the data feed. It is what happens automatically when the data says something is wrong.

The business problem

Alarms that never become work

A BMS integration that simply displays alarms in a second interface adds a screen without adding capability. Without point-to-asset mapping an incoming event cannot be prioritised, assigned or reported on, and the operator still has to decide everything manually.

Alarm feeds displayed without operational consequencePoint names carrying no asset meaningNo basis for automatic prioritisationManual decision required on every event

The IntelliGrid approach

Mapped, classified and actionable

Points are mapped to assets and locations, events are normalised and deduplicated, severity is classified against asset criticality, and configured rules generate assigned work orders carrying the originating event as evidence.

Capabilities

Integration scope

Available interfaces differ by vendor, system age and site configuration. Scope is confirmed in technical discovery.

Vendor interfaces

Native APIs or interfaces where the building system provides them.

Protocol gateways

BACnet or Modbus gateway routes where no direct interface exists.

Point mapping

System points associated with assets, systems and locations.

Event normalisation

One classification across alarms from multiple vendors.

Deduplication

Repeated and related events reduced to a single incident.

Telemetry capture

Trend data retained alongside the alarm that referenced it.

Rule configuration

Which events generate work, at what priority, to whom.

Interface monitoring

The integration itself monitored as part of system status.

Workflow

From BMS event to closure

STEP 1

BMS

System detects an out-of-range or fault condition.

STEP 2

Event

Alarm and telemetry passed to IntelliGrid.

STEP 3

IntelliGrid

Normalised, deduplicated and correlated.

STEP 4

Asset

Matched to the register with criticality and history.

STEP 5

Priority

Severity and criticality set priority and SLA.

STEP 6

Work Order

Assigned, executed and closed with evidence.

Business benefits

Alarms producing accountable work automatically Prioritisation based on asset criticality One classification across multi-vendor estates Originating evidence retained on the work order Interface failures detected rather than discovered
