BMS systems are “Intelligent” microprocessor based controller networks installed to monitor
and control a building’s technical systems and services such as air conditioning, ventilation,
lighting and heating.
More specifically they link the functionality of individual pieces of building equipment so that
they operate as one complete integrated system.
Now installed in every major building or facility with the availability of direct integration into
all other building services such as security, access control, CCTV, fire, Lifts and other life and
safety systems.

For business owners, security can be very important. The security and safety of
physical property, equipment, staff, visitors, and information. It can also be an important
consideration on construction sites.
The components of a commercial security system might include :
Intruder alarms
Perimeter security
Fire detection systems
Access control.
CCTV.
Integrated systems
They are also known as security or burglar alarms, intruder alarms detect unauthorized entry into
a site, building, room or secure installation (such as a safe).
The signals from these sensors are sent back to a central control unit via a wired or wireless
network. In high-end installations, these units may be located in a remote facility where staff
members can monitor activities, mobilize security personnel or contact the police in an
emergency.
Intruder alarm systems may also emit an audible alarm. This serves two purposes: it draws
attention to the break-in, and makes it unpleasant for the intruder to remain onsite.
Electronic access control systems may allow access using credentials such as:
Passcodes.
PINs.
Key cards.
Access badges.
Fingerprints.
Keys.
Key fobs.
Video verification.
An important consideration when installing a CCTV system is the quality of the recorded
footage and the resolution of the cameras. CCTV images can be transmitted to a remote
monitoring facility or can be accessed on remote devices such as mobile phones, allowing
responses to be controlled, such as police or fire service action, or in some cases to permit
access and de-activate alarms.

If these systems are operated separately, costs can be higher, decisions poorer, and
responses inappropriate. Instead, access controls, alarms, sensors, and responses, can
be integrated into one system, sometimes as part of a wider building management
system. This can permit greater control, better response and improved flexibility, for
example, setting different configurations for weekends, holidays and night time
security, turning lights on and off, controlling blinds and controlling cameras.
Application of full IBMS brings the benefits of better indoor comfort, energy efficiency,
safety and security, and most importantly, better management of all the systems under
the unified system. IBMS supports efficient functional system integration and provides
maximum flexibility to support any future changes in the building use.
