Project Details
Benmax were engaged by Centuria and Colliers to expand upon our existing mechanical maintenance contract at Nishi Building, Acton, to provide energy management services. The building holds a 5 Star NABERS Base Building Energy Rating. This service was scoped to include monthly data driven maintenance activities designed to be incorporated into both the BMS and mechanical maintenance schedules so that equipment that requires attention can be targeted and rectified sooner while technicians are on site. This strategy was also able to avoid unnecessary energy consumption or call outs due to tenant complaints. The energy management services are enabled and delivered with the aid of CIM’s analytics and fault detection/diagnostics platform “PEAK”. Additional to monthly maintenance activities, Benmax are providing energy monitoring and tracking services so that any deviations in performance can be investigated and rectified before the next scheduled NABERS rating is carried out.
Active optimisation and monitoring activities commenced in Q3 2021 and over the following 6 months numerous opportunities were identified through a combination of site visits, design reviews and insights raised by the PEAK platform. These opportunities were identified before they created issues for the building occupants and included, but are not limited to:
The next target for the building is to extend the lead over and above the current benchmark and achieve 6 Star NABERS Base Building rating.
A key component to the success of this project was the collaboration in workflows between Facilities Management, BMS maintenance, and Benmax’s mechanical maintenance teams, each bringing a unique but necessary aspect to the building’s performance improvement.
