LMG has launched its digital enablement & commissioning platform, ExchangeIQ.
As the core platform within LMG's suite of software solutions in smart building management, Exchange IQ serves as a central platform repository for:
- Device Discovery: Automatically identifying all smart assets on the building services network
- Data Harmonisation: Transforming unstructured data into a standardised format for readability, particularly in situations where multiple naming conventions may exist
- Device Commissioning: Validating device configuration and communication
- Data Validation: Ensuring data accuracy and compliance
This integrates into the smart building ecosystem to streamline the digital project delivery process – providing tools for network scanning, data conformance, automated reviews, manual commissioning support, and progress tracking. The platform supports seamless integration with other smart building software platforms & subsystem and helps ensure compliance with industry standards and project specifications.
Today's smart building projects face the complexity of integrating a diverse range of smart assets, each with unique data handling capabilities, often requiring manual configuration and translation through IoT gateways. This traditional approach is prone to errors and costly revisits, hindering efficient project delivery.
ExchangeIQ simplifies the smart building commissioning process by automating key tasks and providing centralised data management. This powerful platform streamlines asset tracking, ensures data accuracy, and simplifies validation, reducing errors and accelerating project timelines. ExchangeIQ provides a dynamic digital operations and maintenance manual that continuously updates in real-time, offering a living resource that can evolve with the building for ongoing maintenance and system optimisation.
Mike Hook, executive director at LMG, comments: “Unlike traditional platforms, ExchangeIQ enables seamless device commissioning, data validation, and integration across multiple protocols – delivering enhanced system performance, reduced risk, and a flexible, future-proof smart building enablement platform.
“With this platform, we're automating processes that used to be prone to errors, allowing our engineers to deploy assets rapidly, efficiently, and with confidence. ExchangeIQ doesn’t just streamline asset installation; it provides a flexible, low-risk solution that offers real-time data validation, comprehensive asset & connectivity management, and significant cost savings.
“This is a tool that truly empowers our clients to take full control, making the entire deployment and commissioning process far more efficient and reliable. It can adapt to any project’s needs, regardless of scale or complexity. Whether it’s ensuring data accuracy or providing seamless integration with existing systems, this smart enablement platform is designed to evolve with your newfound demands.”
