The problem

The control system determines how the building actually performs.

Most building performance problems are control problems. servomatrix closes the gap between mechanical design intent and day-to-day building operation.

01

Fragmented systems

Mechanical equipment, meters and third-party systems operate in isolation without disciplined integration.

02

Unstable operation

Poor control logic causes comfort complaints, unnecessary runtime, hunting and recurring call-backs.

03

Weak handover

Incomplete documentation and untested sequences leave operators with a system they cannot confidently maintain.

Solutions

Five ways we engage, mapped to what the building needs.

Solutions describe what you are trying to achieve. Each maps to a defined scope, a set of deliverables and the engineering behind it.

01

New-build BMS delivery

End-to-end controls delivery from design review through to commissioned handover.

Situation
A new facility needs its controls package resolved, delivered and commissioned to align mechanical design intent with day-to-day operation.
Scope
servomatrix engineers the architecture, delivers panels and programming, supports installation, and commissions the system against the design intent.
Typical deliverables
  • Architecture and points schedule
  • Panels and programming
  • Commissioning and as-built pack
Explore this solution
02

Retrofit and controls modernisation

Staged migration of ageing or unsupportable controls in a live, occupied building.

Situation
An existing BMS is obsolete, unsupportable or no longer meeting operational needs, and the building must keep running throughout any upgrade.
Scope
servomatrix audits the existing system, plans a phased migration, resolves protocol and interface strategy, and recommissions the result.
Typical deliverables
  • Existing-system audit
  • Phased migration plan
  • Recommissioning and handover
Explore this solution
03

Testing and commissioning support

Independent, documented verification of controls against the design intent before handover.

Situation
A controls package is approaching handover and the sequences need to be proven, documented and witnessed before the building is accepted.
Scope
servomatrix carries out point-to-point and functional performance testing, verifies sequences, tracks defects and produces witnessed handover documentation.
Typical deliverables
  • Test records
  • Defect register
  • Witnessed sign-off

04

Energy monitoring and operational visibility

Metering, integration and dashboards that make consumption and demand visible and actionable.

Situation
An owner or operator needs visibility of energy and utility use across a facility to manage cost, demand and operational performance.
Scope
servomatrix defines the metering strategy, integrates meter and plant data, and builds dashboards, trends and exception reporting.
Typical deliverables
  • Metering strategy
  • Dashboards and trends
  • Exception reporting

05

Remote support and lifecycle optimisation

Secure remote visibility, alarm review and tuning under an agreed support model.

Situation
An operating building needs ongoing technical support to keep its controls performing and to resolve faults without a full site mobilisation each time.
Scope
servomatrix provides secure remote visibility, alarm and trend review, tuning and fault support under an agreed support model.
Typical deliverables
  • Secure remote access
  • Alarm and trend review
  • Tuning and fault support

Projects

Engineering evidence, presented clearly.

For every project, the controls package should be understandable in drawings, demonstrable during commissioning and maintainable after handover. The scopes below are representative of the work we perform and the deliverables we produce.

Representative delivery scopes describe the engineering approach and deliverables for a building category. They are not presented as completed servomatrix projects. Verified project case studies will be published here following delivery and client approval.
Representative delivery scope

Commercial office BMS integration

Multi-tenant office tower·Representative — Middle East

A multi-tenant office requires central plant, tenant metering and after-hours control brought under one supervisory layer, with each tenancy comfortable and accountable.

Protocols
  • BACnet/IP
  • BACnet MS/TP
  • Modbus TCP
Scope detail
Representative delivery scope

Healthcare ventilation and critical alarming

Clinical facility·Representative — Middle East & Africa

A clinical facility requires ventilation control to defined conditions, critical alarming with clear escalation, and the documentation discipline a healthcare handover demands.

Protocols
  • BACnet/IP
  • BACnet MS/TP
  • Modbus TCP

Representative delivery scope

Hotel HVAC control and energy visibility

Hotel·Representative — Middle East

A hotel requires consistent guest comfort, quiet plant operation and energy visibility across back-of-house, running continuously through every hour of the day.

Protocols
  • BACnet/IP
  • Modbus TCP
  • Modbus RTU
Scope detail
Architecture

From field device to operator interface — one documented architecture.

Every project is built on a single, documented control architecture, from the field devices in the plant room to the operator interface and remote support layer.

  1. 01

    Field devices

    Sensors, actuators, valves, drives and metering at the plant and zones.

  2. 02

    DDC control

    Direct digital controllers running the sequences, local to plant and field.

  3. 03

    Integration network

    BACnet and Modbus over IP and serial, plus gateways to third-party systems.

  4. 04

    Supervisor / operator layer

    Graphics, alarms, trends, schedules and reporting for daily operation.

  5. 05

    Remote support and analytics

    Secure remote visibility, alarm review and trend analysis after handover.

Network architecture diagrams

How controllers, supervisors and gateways connect across the building.

Points schedules and I/O mapping

Every input and output scheduled, budgeted and mapped.

DDC panel schematics

Delivery process

A defined route from design review to lifecycle support.

Six consolidated phases on every project. The full ten-step engineering process is set out in detail.

01

Review and scope

Review the design intent and constraints, and agree scope, interfaces and standards before drawing begins.

02

Architecture and engineering

Set network topology, controller selection, points schedule and integration boundaries.

03

Programming and panel delivery

Engineer panels and write auditable controller logic and operator graphics.

04

Integration and installation support

Support termination, power-up and network commissioning on site.

05

Testing and commissioning

Prove every point and sequence against the design intent, with documented results.

06

Handover and lifecycle support

Train operators, hand over the as-built pack, and support performance after handover.

Assurance

What a serious controls partner is accountable for.

Open-protocol integration

We integrate across BACnet, Modbus and IP interfaces where the project specifies, rather than locking the building to a single vendor.

Documented engineering

Architecture, points, sequences and panels are drawn and recorded, so the system is understandable and maintainable.

Testing against sequence intent

Sequences are verified against the approved design intent and the results are recorded, not assumed.

Support after handover

The relationship continues under a defined support scope, so performance is maintained rather than left to drift.

Standards reference

Our engineering approach is informed by recognised building controls, energy and electrical frameworks. Applicable requirements are confirmed project by project according to jurisdiction, consultant specification and agreed scope.
