ESI Now Value-Added Reseller of SkySpark Building Performance Software
SkyFoundry’s revolutionary software tranforms data into actionable information
BROOKFIELD–February 23, 2011– ESI
(Environmental Systems, Inc.) is partnering with software solution
provider SkyFoundry to resell and implement SkySpark. This innovative
technology helps transform data from a myriad of smart devices into
more profitable solutions for building systems management.
“SkySpark analyzes the sea of data
contained in smart systems to pinpoint what’s important,” says John
Petze, SkyFoundry co-founder and partner. Ongoing and instant access to
valuable information from building automation systems, electric meters,
thermostats and even individual sensors helps building owners identify
opportunities to reduce energy consumption and improve operations
through enhanced control and replacement of capital
equipment.
Paul Oswald, ESI president, says
these advantages are the reason ESI decided to become a SkySpark
Value-Added Reseller (VAR). “We continually seek out new technologies
that add value for our customers,” Oswald says. “By turning data into
actionable information, SkySpark enables customers to improve building
performance and reduce energy costs.”
As a VAR, ESI provides SkySpark as
part of its end-to-end solutions and offers the software and support
services to other firms for use in their solutions.
“We’re pleased to have an
industry-thought leader like ESI partnering with us as a VAR,” Petze
says. “ESI has the training and capability to implement the software
for building owners/operators and other systems integrators and
contractors. The combination of ESI’s building, operations and control
systems domain expertise, and its knowledge of SkySpark technology, is
essential for optimal implementation and ongoing success.”
Since the relationship between the
two firms began last spring, ESI has begun implementation of SkySpark
for several large customers. ESI works with its customers to provide
initial benchmarking and identifies patterns and issues that result in
specific actionable data most beneficial for each customer’s systems
and business requirements.
Results are just beginning to come
in and are overwhelmingly positive, according to Oswald. “Once SkySpark
is installed, ESI provides analysis, training and support. We work with
our customers to measure usage against key performance indicators and
goals and fine tune performance as needed,” he says. “SkySpark gives us
– and our customers – the ability to stay on top of equipment operation
and correct issues before they become costly problems. It’s an exciting
solution toward achieving and maintaining optimum facility performance.”
ESI provides performance-building
solutions for control and automation, systems integration, security,
life safety, advanced software applications, energy services and
building operations. ESI’s solutions reduce operating costs, improve
