ABB, Samsung Partner on Integrated Building Management

What happened

On Nov. 11, ABB and Samsung Electronics said they will expand their integrated solutions business, combining building automation and HVAC technologies for offices, hotels and commercial facilities, providing an integrated Internet of Things (IoT) solution combining heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC), lighting and energy management for commercial buildings. Samsung Electronics will supply HVAC equipment, displays and home appliances, while ABB will provide building automation and power management technologies, including lighting, shading, access control and energy metering. The companies will establish a supply network centered on specialized system integrators (SIs); partners will receive training on both companies' technologies and handle everything from equipment design to installation and operation, and building owners will be able to use an integrated service instead of contracting separately with multiple suppliers. Customers can choose between ABB's BuildingPro and Samsung Electronics' SmartThings Pro as their building management platform; the two platforms are connected through the cloud to exchange data, enabling customers to manage building operations and energy consumption through an integrated system.
