SentiA Smart Building Analytics (SBA)
SentiA Smart Building Analytics by East-West Digital turns building management data into prioritised comfort and energy actions. It connects to your existing systems with read only access, and your team approves every fix.
Outcomes
90%+ of HVAC waste identified
50% less diagnostic time
Up to 40% fewer labour hours spent on reactive thermal tickets
The challenge
Your building systems were built for machines, not people
A legacy building management system (BMS) is built around equipment, not the people inside. So buildings are run reactively. Problems surface as complaints, alarms pile up and HVAC (heating, ventilation and air conditioning) waste goes unnoticed.
What it does
Fewer comfort complaints
Early detection and diagnosis catch comfort issues sooner and resolve them faster.
Scales across your portfolio
Grow from one building to many, across regions and large enterprise portfolios.
Deep energy expertise
Developed by energy specialists, so recommendations are accurate and grounded in how buildings use energy.
Stable building performance
Fewer interventions and fewer recurring issues across your systems.
Alerts that tell you the fix
Each alert points operators to the root cause and exactly how to fix it.
Less energy waste
SentiA targets the hidden, everyday inefficiencies that quietly burn money.
How it works
SentiA connects to your existing BMS and HVAC systems with read only access and runs entirely in the cloud. The AI recommends; your facility team decides.
Step 1
Connect with read only access
One isolated device per building that only listens. Data points are mapped automatically, so you're running in days.
Step 2
AI triages the data
SentiA learns your building's normal patterns and flags what matters, including comfort issues, anomalies and the setpoint change needed.
Step 3
Your team approves
Your facility team reviews each recommendation and approves the fix with one click. Nothing changes without their say.
Step 4
See the impact
Impact reporting tracks the actions you take day by day, across working hours and weekends, and weighs energy saved against energy invested in comfort.
Who it's for
- Facility managers
- Building operations engineers
- Energy managers
- Portfolio leaders across multiple sites
How to start
- 1
Discovery
We learn about your buildings, your BMS and the comfort and energy issues that matter most to you.
- 2
Targeted pilot
We connect SentiA to selected buildings with read only access and show its recommendations working on your own data.
- 3
Portfolio rollout
SentiA extends across your buildings and regions, with every site side by side in one view.
- 4
Continuous optimisation
SentiA keeps learning each building's normal patterns, and impact reporting tracks the value of every action your team takes.
Frequently asked questions
Will SentiA interfere with our BMS or HVAC operations?
No. SentiA (Smart Building Analytics) connects with read only access through one isolated device per building that only listens to your data, so there is zero risk of interference with your core HVAC operations. SentiA recommends; your facility team decides.
Who makes the final decision on changes?
Your facility team does. SentiA's AI recommends a specific action, such as the exact setpoint change needed to fix a comfort issue, and your team confirms it with one click. The team stays fully in control at every step.
How long does SentiA take to set up?
SentiA is up and running in days, not months. Its software automatically maps and translates your building's data, so your team doesn't have to rename thousands of data points by hand.
Does SentiA need servers or hardware on site?
Very little. SentiA runs entirely in the cloud, so it analyses your building's data without adding heavy processing load to your local servers. On site, we install one isolated device per building, with read only access.
Can SentiA cover a whole portfolio of buildings?
Yes. SentiA's portfolio oversight shows how all your buildings are performing side by side in one view. It is designed to scale across buildings, regions and large enterprise portfolios.
