ABB and Samsung Electronics have announced a new integration between ABB Ability Building Pro and Samsung SmartThings Pro, building on their existing partnership. The integration enables building owners and operators to access building data, insights and controls through a more connected environment.
Building owners and operators are managing increasingly complex property portfolios while facing growing pressure to improve efficiency and meet sustainability goals. ABB and Samsung are directly addressing that challenge by connecting their respective building intelligence and enterprise IoT platforms, providing greater visibility into building performance through a familiar digital environment.
ABB Ability BuildingPro connects devices and data across building systems, enabling analytics and operational insights through ABB Ability™ BuildingPro Suites. Samsung SmartThings Pro brings these capabilities into the Samsung ecosystem via a secure cloud-to-cloud integration, allowing data to be shared between both platforms.
"Building owners require a data foundation they can trust and tools that make it easier to manage increasingly complex building portfolios," said Mike Mustapha, division president, ABB Electrification’s Smart Buildings Division. "By integrating ABB Ability BuildingPro with Samsung SmartThings Pro, we are helping owners and operators access the insights they need to make more informed decisions across their buildings.”
“Samsung SmartThings Pro gives enterprise customers a familiar platform to manage and maximize their buildings and assets,” said Chan-Woo Park, executive vice president, Samsung Electronics Device eXperience Division. “Combined with ABB Ability BuildingPro, customers can access building information and controls through a connected experience that helps simplify day-to-day building management.”
