You must look at the ways how facility management services in Gurgaon have started to think about the equipment and
systems that comprise their facilities. They have started the concept of
cluster management, which means monitoring and controlling related equipment,
such as generators, transfers switches and paralleling switchgear as an
integrated group. All related equipment and systems are monitored and controlled
as a cluster. Critical power certainly is considered as one cluster. Others are
HVAC, and safety and security. Each has detailed monitoring, measurement and
control within itself. And each streams data to an overarching system, such as
a building management system. The overarching system orchestrates facility
managers' policy decisions using the aggregated data.Cluster management has
significantly affected equipment and devices in a cluster and how they are
managed. All equipment and devices are planned to be completely compatible,
share information freely, and otherwise operate seamlessly. It is actually a
great step in this industry!
Today, facility managers are seeing
more data than they've ever seen before and they are interpreting it
intelligently. Interpretation is what makes facility management data valuable. For
clients, it is a change for reducing energy consumption, projecting capacity
requirements, streamlining maintenance, resolving operational issues and
meeting reporting requirements. Now, harnessing big data intelligently is best
accomplished with a systems thinking approach. Systems thinking considers
problems as integral elements of an overall system. It advocates that reacting
to specific parts, outcomes, or events could potentially contribute to
unintended (a.k.a. negative) consequences. With the systems thinking approach,
big data has become three-dimensional. Data also requires protection. Data
continuity needs to be assured by a self-healing network that avoids
disruptions or overcomes disruptions instantaneously. Data security is being
assured by multiple levels of encryption: application layer, native database
object, network and point-to-point. Programmable cryptography, digital
certificates and time stamping is also a part of a data protection program and
all this is being taken care of really well.
