by Rebecca Walker — February 28, 2011—Environmental Systems, Inc., (ESI) a provider of solutions for building controls and automation, is partnering with software provider SkyFoundry to resell and implement SkySpark, which helps transform data from a myriad of smart devices into more profitable solutions for building systems management.
Ongoing and instant access to valuable information from building automation systems, electric meters, thermostats and even individual sensors helps building owners identify opportunities to reduce energy consumption and improve operations through enhanced control and replacement of capital equipment.
Paul Oswald, ESI president, says these advantages are the reason ESI decided to become a SkySpark Value-Added Reseller (VAR). “We continually seek out new technologies that add value for our customers,” said Oswald. “By turning data into actionable information, SkySpark enables customers to improve building performance and reduce energy costs.”
As a VAR, ESI provides SkySpark as part of its end-to-end solutions and offers the software and support services to other firms for use in their solutions.
“Once SkySpark is installed, ESI provides analysis, training and support,” said Oswald. “We work with our customers to measure usage against key performance indicators and goals and fine tune performance as needed.”
ESI provides performance-building solutions for control and automation, systems integration, security, life safety, advanced software applications, energy services and building operations. ESI’s solutions reduce operating costs, improve sustainability and provide a positive return on investment. For more information, see the Web site.
