When it comes to choosing a Building Management System (BMS) systems integrator, installer, or service provider, the decision is a crucial one. An essential factor to consider is whether the provider fabricates their BMS control panels in-house or outsources this pivotal task. T.M. Bier & Associates firmly advocates for in-house fabrication, especially when it comes to BMS control panels. In this blog, we'll explore the significance of BMS control panels, why in-house fabrication matters, and the benefits of choosing this approach.

When there is a complaint about one room in the building being hotter or cooler than the rest of the building, BMS Technicians have to act like detectives to decode the problem. They need to understand the building's many integrated systems and the components within them. This requires a level of knowledge and experience that goes beyond what many other building professionals possess.

BMS modernization can be done in manageable steps that optimize your investment while maximizing the benefits. Choosing the best time to do this upgrade can help. This should be done well before the end of its lifecycle, enabling an incremental upgrade that extracts the greatest lifespan, keeps the software up to date, gains performance enhancements, and protect against cyberattacks.
