What is a building management system?

Building Management Systems (BMS) are computer-based control systems installed in buildings to monitor and manage mechanical and electrical equipment such as ventilation, lighting, power systems, fire systems, and security systems. These systems help optimize building performance, improve energy efficiency, and ensure occupant comfort and safety. BMS can be integrated with various building technologies, allowing centralized control and real-time monitoring. By automating routine processes and providing valuable data, BMS play a crucial role in modern building operations.
