Marcus Gomez has successfully written a new white paper for Cisco Systems that examines Cisco’s Connected Real Estate technology: a smart suite of products that allow site managers to monitor and manage all aspects of building systems — energy, security and safety — from a single, central location.

The 10-page white paper revolves around the experiences of Office Squared and Servcorp: the second largest supplier of serviced office space globally, managing some 70 storeys spanning 14 different countries. Office Squared was set up to deliver this unique capability to buildings and businesses beyond Servcorp. While current “smart” or “intelligent” building structures tout advanced building management systems, HVAC and environmental controls, each system is separate from the rest and must still be managed independently. The Cisco Connected Real Estate solution unites the disparate — and often proprietary — networks and systems over a single IP network that allows all communication, security and building systems to be monitored and managed centrally.

Connected Real Estate enhances the value of real estate with proven technology benefits. Together with managed services providers like Office Squared, it offers property owners a way to unlock the hidden value of their assets in new ways. And, with Cisco at the helm of IP technology, there will be many more ways to exploit the IP advantage.
