Digital is just as important as bricks & mortar in today’s built environment sector.

Guidelines and standards such as BIM, ISO19650-3, NEC4 Design Build Operate contract, UK Government Soft Landings, etc. are forcing the construction industry, owners & operators to look at the whole asset lifecycle and apply technology to drive business outcomes such as sustainability, asset performance, productivity, cost reductions, H&S, traceability, compliance, wellbeing, experience, etc. For an industry prominently focussed on the ‘bricks & mortar’ to complete the Design & Build phase, understanding the ‘digital’ aspect and expanding horizons to look into the operational phase, where typically +80% of the total cost of ownership and carbon footprint is found, is a significant challenge but also a significant opportunity.

 "The technology art of possible" - SROi can join the dots.

The first step for any owner, operator or construction partner is to understand the ‘technology art of possible’ as they look to shape a digital strategy that will deliver desired business outcomes for their assets – whether those assets be a hospital, university, offices, residential, or sub-assets such as rooms, HVAC, lighting, specialist equipment. There’s a danger at this stage that the Owner/Operator could either put all eggs in one basket and hand the problem over to an OEM supplier who’ll be more than willing to lead the client into proprietary solutions, or perhaps work with an abundance of partners where the risk would be to create disparate bunch siloed technology & data sources rather than a coherent, joined-up digital strategy. Not one organisation has the solution to all these challenges, hence why SRO Solutions have brought together a complementary ecosystem of partners to deliver a modular, interoperable,  ‘cradle to grave’ approach to Smart Asset Management.

The ecosystem of expert partners 

Our ecosystem leading the UK & global partners provide expertise in IoT, BMS/SCADA integration, Common Data Environment (CDE), Data Analytics, BIM, 3D modelling and Digital Twins, Asset Management, E-procurement, FM consulting, and supported by academic rigour ensuring an independent perspective and innovation excellence. This unique collective offering allows Owners & Operators to focus on their desired business outcomes and leave the headache of Interoperability, Open Standards, Non-proprietary Best-in-breed, Re-useable data, Future-proof, Fit-for-purpose and required underpinning technologies to us.

"With the end in mind" approach.

The approach typically starts in the early Design & Build phase and ensures all the necessary data to achieve desired business outcomes is created, structured and shared between systems. This allows a seamless transition into the operational phase without losing the ‘golden thread’ of information, which is maintained across the whole asset lifecycle and can be used to support evidence-based fit-for-purpose and have a significant impact on the total cost of ownership and carbon footprint.

SRO Solutions supports construction partners, owners & operators in delivering an integrated smart building facility designed to deliver desired operational business outcomes within a joined-up & future-proofed digital strategy based on open, interoperable technology and standards.
