When planning, it is critical to consider from the outset who the future users will be, what expectations they will have, and what digital added value the building must offer. One must also consider what will be important in the operational phase and which systems the actors will use in and around the building. 

 

What Challenges Do You Face?

  • Unclear user requirements for a smart/digital building 
  • Concerns about security vulnerabilities 
  • Data protection issues relating to building operations 
  • Possibility of cyberattacks and protection against them 
  • Frequent updates to the systems and the uncertainty associated with them 
  • Concern about the high costs of digital solutions 
  • Fear that the building will already be technically outdated upon completion 

At Drees & Sommer, we do not see digital technologies as an end in themselves, but as a means to improve processes, heighten the user experience, ensure the sustainable operation of real estate, and make new business models possible. A tailor-made smart building is designed to meet the exact needs of the users. It can reliably monitor and control processes, thereby creating economic and ecological added value for all participants.
