Case Study : Siemens Building Technologies, Inc.
Problem:
Siemens Building Technology (SBT) needed a solution that helps college and corporate campuses regulate multiple
heating and cooling systems.
Benefit:
Using Lantronix's device server technology has helped SBT solve customers' problems with centralized
management of their heating and cooling control applications at a competitive price.
Siemens Building Technologies, Inc. (SBT) is a world leader that provides cost-effective, facility performance solutions for the comfort, life safety, security, energy efficiency and operation of buildings. SBT has more than 5,000 employees in over 100 locations across North America, delivering facility performance, turnkey installation and support services.
SBT supplies college and corporate campuses with technology that regulates multiple heating and cooling systems. Many of their customers have been working with SBT for many years and highly value the ability to upgrade their systems in order to keep pace with the latest technology. As network technology has advanced, campuses had to either add new networking lines or add costly phone lines to improve their facility systems' network performance. SBT needed a solution that would increase their customer's productivity and reduce their overall facilities costs, while leveraging their investment in Ethernet.
SBT selected Lantronix's MSS100 for its easy integration into their product offering, its competitive pricing and ability to scale over time to fit customer needs. To date, implementation has been very successful and sales forecasts have doubled with increasing customer demand.
"We're very happy with the solution from Lantronix," said Jeff Wills, Product Manager, SBT. "One interesting application we've found is with campus facilities and IT staffs. The solution helps solve our customers' problems with centralized management of their heating and cooling control applications. In addition, it brings facilities and IT management together, which has traditionally not been the case."
