Azbil Corporation announced that it has started developing new digital solutions for use with intelligent building management systems (IBMS), with support from the Singapore Economic Development Board (EDB).<\/p>\n
In recent years, as modern cities are being transformed into smart cities, solutions are being developed in siloes\u2014in other words, in isolation\u2014which hinders both cross-sector information-sharing and the overall benefit such solutions can offer society. Against this backdrop, Azbil has started a technological development project for developing new IBMS digital solutions that combine AI and big data.<\/p>\n
The new digital solutions aim to share and visualize information comprehensively, contribute to a sustainable society, and improve people\u2019s quality of life. Specifically, they aim to improve the safety of buildings and occupants, increase convenience and energy efficiency, and reduce operational costs and buildings\u2019 impact on the environment. This will be accomplished through an infrastructure that enables the status of the building and occupants to be checked and managed remotely.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are pleased that Azbil Corporation is advancing its innovation and digitalization capabilities in Singapore,\u201d said Ms. Linda Sein, senior vice president, Investment Facilitation, EDB. \u201cAzbil\u2019s development of smart technologies and infrastructure in Singapore reflects the country\u2019s strengths in innovation and R&D for urban solutions and demonstrates our value in helping companies innovate and test-bed solutions for smart cities.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI am so excited to announce that, in Singapore, Azbil Corporation will invest and move forward with the state-of-the-art innovation project of developing digital solutions for lBMS, with such significant support from Singapore\u2019s Economic Development Board in response to rapidly increasing demands for digital transformation and smart solutions that leverage AI and big data,\u201d commented Mr. Takayuki Yokota, Azbil\u2019s CFO and senior managing executive officer in charge of global corporate communication.<\/p>\n
Azbil\u2019s Singapore showroom is scheduled to exhibit conceptual images of the new digital solutions for IBMS as well as remote building operation and management.<\/p>\n
