CODA can connect with a multitude of devices within a commercial estate either globally or locally to provide full visibility and digitalisation of the operations. CODA also delivers substantial, and speedy, tangible business benefits from energy to financial savings, maintenance and operational performance. The platform delivers unrivalled analysis and comprehensive reports of energy consumption and operational performance and improvement opportunities. This details all of the items that are connected to the central IoT controller against a clearly defined control strategy design. It also delivers insights into the associated cost savings and ROI for the business.

Additionally, CODA can monitor consumption of all loads during operating hours and through heat-map style analytics, to identify each hourly period where consumption is high, medium, low or off, plus a gradient on energy consumption patterns for each energy intensive piece of equipment. CODA’s interactive dashboard showcases current status, condition and operation of the equipment in question. This aids with the management of the BeMS (Building IoT) solution and also delivers real-time analytics and insights to allow for remote diagnostics and an understanding of the maintenance requirements onsite.
