We Engage via

Channel Partners

For over a decade, we have worked with leading design consultants in the smart building and energy domain to help develop model-driven - and now data-driven - financial & engineering modelling solutions for better informed decision making.

With extensive digital engineering experience, we can solve problems inhibiting the flow of information and specialise in converging operational and information technologies on small or grand scale in new or existing projects.

We Engage via

Strategic Partners

We count amongst our strategic partners government agencies such as QLD Health & NSW Education.

Our academic partners include CSIRO, Data 61, and the International Energy Agency EBC Research Annex 81: ‘Data-Driven Smart Buildings’.

Over the years we have employed our digital engineering skills on Vicinity Centres, NRMA and Crown Property Group property portfolios.

We Develop and Supply

Planning Business

Rapidly assess CapEx and OpEx for energy related components of a building to 50-year BCR and NPV.

We adopted a data-driven approach using AI + ML to speed up the delivery of many scenario models for assessing the viability of energy storage, generation and overall demand flexibility.

Why Choose Us

We are leaders in data-driven smart buildings

We understand the value that data-driven approaches can deliver during predesign and operational phases of the building lifecycle - in addition to traditional building energy modelling that complies with NCC Section JV3 using ASHRAE standard 140.

  • Industry leaders

    We actively participate in IEA/EBC Annex 81 on data-driven smart buildings and Mission Innovation IC7 on affordable heating and cooling.
  • Experienced team

    Our dynamic team draws upon many disciplines and has extensive experience with optimising the built environment both in modelling and thr real-world.
  • Proven track record

    From CSIRO to the QLD & NSW Governments, to some of the largest listed property portfolios in Australia, we have the record that provides innovation and reduces project risk.
  • Superior solutions

    Drawing upon our extensive R&D experiences and links with academia, we cut through what works and what doesn’t, providing the best solutions for the market to build.
