The SmartViz platform is now providing even greater value to property owners and managers.

SmartViz is also a partner of the iTwin partner program. The partnership means that the Bentley iTwin platform provides the building blocks of an online operational “twin” of the building, enabling SmartViz to add a cognitive layer that empowers property owners and managers with access to data and insights about how their building is used in real time.

As well as identifying where energy is being wasted, SmartViz allows predictive modelling, which enables building owners or managers to see how different scenarios, such as how weather conditions or occupancy rates, would impact energy usage, allowing a much higher degree of control over costs.

Now powered by iTwin, SmartViz offers users a digital twin that records, monitors, tracks, instantly alerts, and optimizes asset performance. With advanced 3D visualizations, real-time data analytics, predictive day-in-the-life simulation, and scenario planning, users can optimise their buildings, assets, and create a more productive and energy-efficient building for all.

“The majority of buildings over 1000 square metres in the UK were built in an era when energy consumption was not a major concern,” said Dr Shrikant Sharma, founder/CEO of SmartViz.  “But with the Government’s net zero strategy demanding decisive action from businesses, and the current fuel crisis impacting every supply chain, the need to optimise how we use energy in our commercial, educational and retail spaces has become a key issue. The data and insights SmartViz provides makes that possible.”
