Equans Digital for Facilities Management and estates

Connected insight. Proactive action. Better-performing buildings.

Equans Digital connects building management systems, technical assets and operational data, giving FM and estates teams a clearer view of building performance.

By bringing together BMS projects, maintenance, monitoring and connected estate services, we help organisations identify problems earlier, target engineering activity and reduce avoidable energy use.

Discuss your estate requirements

How can digital technology improve visibility across your estate?

Ageing controls, disconnected systems and inconsistent data can make faults harder to identify and buildings more difficult to manage.

Equans Digital helps address challenges such as:

Legacy or unsupported BMS infrastructure

Energy waste caused by poorly configured controls or plant

Limited visibility of plant and asset performance

Inconsistent systems across buildings and sites

Faults discovered only after they cause disruption

Specialist systems managed through separate platforms

Maintenance based on fixed schedules rather than condition

Cybersecurity and connectivity concerns

We connect building systems, assets and data to support more visible, efficient and proactive estate operations.

Our approach

How does Equans Digital support smarter estate management?

We bring together four activities that are often managed separately.

Connect

We install, upgrade and integrate building controls, plant, meters, sensors and technical assets. This can include BMS modernisation, controls improvements, graphics and data standardisation, plant integration, sub-metering and secure IoT connectivity.

Maintain

We provide planned BMS maintenance, remote diagnostics, reactive support and targeted engineering intervention to keep controls correctly configured and working as intended.

Monitor

Our Digital Operations Centre oversees connected buildings, systems and plant. Engineers investigate alarms and performance issues, intervene remotely where possible and help coordinate an appropriate site response.

Optimise

We use building, plant, metering and asset data to identify energy waste, emerging faults and gaps in performance. The findings can inform changes to controls, schedules, setpoints, maintenance plans and lifecycle investment.

Our services

BMS projects and secure IoT

We survey, design, install, integrate and upgrade building management systems and controls.

Services include:

BMS surveys and condition assessments
new installations and system upgrades
controller and head-end modernisation
controls strategy improvements
graphics and data standardisation
BMS and plant integration
secure IoT connectivity
sensors and utility sub-metering

This provides a more reliable foundation for maintenance, remote monitoring and future digital services.

BMS maintenance and reactive support

Our planned maintenance services help keep building controls reliable, correctly configured and operating as intended.

When a fault occurs, remote diagnostics can support faster investigation and resolution. If an engineer needs to attend, better system information can help focus the site response and reduce avoidable disruption.

Building monitoring and optimisation

We monitor connected buildings, plant and controls to identify alarms, abnormal operation and performance issues.

Our Building Energy Performance services combine site assessment with BMS, metering and plant data to identify energy waste and opportunities to improve controls, schedules and plant operation.

Predictive Maintenance uses BMS and asset data to identify deterioration and increasing failure risk, helping customers prioritise maintenance according to condition and operational impact.

Connected estate services

Targeted monitoring can help address specific operational challenges, including:

lift monitoring
asset tracking
leak detection
indoor environment and occupancy monitoring
damp and mould monitoring
utility sub-metering
temperature, flow and fuel-level monitoring
lighting and HVAC monitoring

These services can use shared estate infrastructure, supported by dashboards, alarms, remote triage and performance reporting.

Who can benefit from Equans Digital services?

We support organisations that depend on buildings, infrastructure and technical assets performing reliably.

Industrial organisations

We help manufacturers and other technically complex organisations modernise controls, connect plant and assets, identify emerging faults and improve visibility across operational sites.

Healthcare estates

We support healthcare organisations with BMS modernisation, planned maintenance, remote diagnostics, monitoring and connected services across complex operational estates.

Education estates

We help schools, colleges and universities manage buildings of different ages and technical maturity, with work planned around operational and academic requirements.

What can a more connected estate deliver?

Greater operational resilience

Earlier identification and faster investigation of emerging issues can help reduce disruption.

Better-targeted maintenance

Remote diagnostics and condition insight can help teams focus engineering resources where they are most needed.

Reduced energy waste

Building, plant and metering data can reveal inefficient schedules, setpoints and operating strategies.

More informed asset decisions

Condition and performance information can support maintenance, replacement and lifecycle planning.

Clearer estate visibility

Connected data, dashboards and reporting can provide a more consistent view across individual buildings or multi-site portfolios.

A foundation for future services

Modern controls and secure connectivity make it easier to introduce additional monitoring and digital capabilities over time.

Connected through SMARTR

SMARTR from Equans Digital brings together data from building management systems, connected devices and other controls.

It can provide visibility across individual buildings and multi-site estates, supporting the monitoring of energy use, HVAC performance and technical assets within one connected digital environment.

Frequently asked questions

What is Equans Digital for FM and estates?

Equans Digital connects building management systems, technical assets and operational data. Its services include BMS projects, maintenance, monitoring, energy optimisation, predictive maintenance and connected estate services.

Can Equans Digital work with an existing BMS?

Yes. Equans Digital can assess existing controls and support integration, upgrades, controller and head-end modernisation, controls improvements and graphics standardisation. The right approach will depend on the age, condition and compatibility of the existing system.

What does BMS maintenance include?

BMS maintenance can include checks on system health, alarms, controllers, field devices, configuration and connected controls. Equans Digital provides planned maintenance, remote diagnostics, reactive support and on-site engineering where needed.

How does remote BMS monitoring work?

Connected systems provide alarms and performance data for ongoing oversight. Engineers investigate issues, assess their operational effect and intervene remotely where possible. Available system information can also help focus any on-site response.

How can BMS optimisation reduce energy waste?

BMS, metering and plant data can identify inefficient schedules, setpoints, controls and plant operation. Improvements can then be made and monitored to check that performance is being maintained.

Can Equans Digital support a multi-site estate?

Yes. Building controls, meters, sensors and technical assets can be connected across several buildings or sites. Dashboards, alarms, monitoring and reporting can then provide a clearer portfolio-wide view.
