Services
Attain combines building engineering expertise with live operational data and a technology platform built to act on what it finds. From continuous supervision to forensic advice and hands-on engineering, our specialists stay involved in the performance of the building.
The Problem
Another dashboard can show a problem. Someone still has to understand it, decide what should change and make the change safely.
Specialist Technical Services are part of every Attain deployment. They close the gap between insight and operation.
What our specialists do
Three ways we stay involved.
The exact mix changes by building, but the relationship is simple: Supervise. Advise. Engineer.
Buildings drift. Schedules change, equipment ages, faults appear and yesterday's optimisation stops matching today's operation. Attain specialists continuously review what the building is doing and where performance is moving away from where it should be.
Review
Live performance, FDD and recurring anomalies
Track
Energy, carbon, comfort and operational trends
Investigate
Faults and unusual behaviour
Tune
ActiveTrim and authorised control strategies over time
Maintain
Reporting, data quality and relevant configuration
Coordinate
Facilities, engineering and sustainability teams
A high energy bill or recurring fault does not automatically mean new equipment. Attain combines live and historical data with building-engineering expertise to find the operating cause before recommending the intervention.
Analyse
Loads, schedules, setpoints, occupancy, weather and system behaviour
Trace
Waste such as out-of-hours plant, simultaneous heating and cooling, poor sequencing and drifting base loads
Separate
Equipment limitations from problems in controls, sensing, maintenance or operation
Prioritise
Opportunities by impact, practicality and cost
Define
Baselines, targets and evidence for performance decisions
Advise
Where maintenance, control changes or capital investment will create the strongest result
Insight only matters when it changes operation. Attain engineers work across the controls environment to implement the improvements the building needs.
Assess and Improve
The existing BMS and control strategies
Commission
Data, interfaces, permissions and authorised control routes
Improve
Schedules, setpoints, sequencing and cross-system coordination
Upgrade
Control hardware or add sensing where justified
Connect
Suitable HVAC, MEP, lighting and other systems through Attain Edge
Implement
Bespoke Smart Logic for defined functional requirements
Commission
ActiveTrim on suitable authorised systems and define safe operating boundaries
Validate
Results before and after changes
Onboarding
Five days from install to live savings.
On suitable buildings, Attain can move from installation to live savings in five days. Specialists assess the site, connect and validate the building through Attain Edge, commission the agreed Attain Platform capabilities and put the first performance improvements to work.
Assess
Understand the systems, constraints and strongest performance opportunities.
Connect
Establish the right Attain Edge route and validate the building data.
Commission
Configure reporting, diagnostics, controls and operating boundaries.
Improve
Put the first changes to work, verify the result and keep tuning from there.
