  • BuildOT One: Smart Building Platform for UAE Buildings

BuildOT One is a cloud-native smart building platform from MachineSens IoT. It brings energy, air quality, climate, equipment, facilities and sustainability data into one place for UAE buildings and portfolios. It works with our wireless LoRaWAN and NRF sensors and connects to existing systems, so a typical building goes live in about 30 days.

How BuildOT One is built

The platform has three layers. Devices and existing systems feed a building data layer. Operational modules run the building day to day. The intelligence layer finds patterns, explains them and reports on them. Every module reads the same data, so you can start with one and add others later.

Platform modules

Each module works on its own and shares the same data, so you can start with one and add others as your needs grow.

Monitor

Energy and Utilities

Electricity, water, chilled water and BTU consumption, cost and carbon across buildings and portfolios.

Comfort and Climate

Zone-level temperature, humidity and setpoint visibility to find overcooling, overheating and comfort issues.

Air Quality and Wellbeing

Continuous indoor air quality monitoring for CO2, PM2.5, PM10, TVOC, temperature and humidity.

Space Management

Site, floor and zone structure with live room conditions shown on floor plans.

Control and operate

AirBMS

A cloud layer over HVAC and building systems for live monitoring, alarms and diagnostics without replacing your BMS.

Automation Hub

Schedules, rules and workflows that turn building data into automatic actions.

FM360

Integrated facilities management for work orders, assets and service teams on one platform.

Notification Intelligence Center

Routes alerts to the right teams, escalates unresolved issues and keeps an audit trail of every event.

Predict and understand

Predictive Center

Fault detection and predictive maintenance insights that flag equipment problems early.

BuildOT Copilot

An AI assistant that answers questions about your buildings in plain language.

AirTwin

A live digital twin of your buildings, built from survey to live in about 30 days.

Asset and Property Intelligence

A structured register of sites, buildings, floors, assets and devices, with manuals and procedures linked to live data.

Report and prove

Sustainability and ESG

Energy and carbon data for Scope 1 and 2 reporting across your portfolio.

Report Hub

Scheduled and on-demand reports for operations, finance and leadership.

Measurement and Verification

Baselines and savings validation for energy conservation measures.

Data Integration

Connectors, protocols and data management that bring devices and existing systems into one source of truth.

How it works

1Install wireless sensors and metersLoRaWAN and NRF devices fit existing buildings with no new cabling and little disruption.
2Connect everything to BuildOT OneData arrives in the cloud, organised by site, building, floor and room. It can also feed an existing BMS over BACnet.
3Act on what the data showsTeams use live dashboards, alerts, automation and reports to cut waste, fix faults and report with confidence.

Frequently asked questions

What is BuildOT One?

BuildOT One is the cloud platform from MachineSens IoT that turns building sensor and meter data into dashboards, alerts, analytics and reports. It is made up of 16 modules you can adopt one at a time.

Do I need to replace my existing BMS?

No. BuildOT One connects to existing systems over BACnet, Modbus and MQTT, so you can add a cloud layer on top of what you already run.

How long does it take to go live?

A typical building goes live in about 30 days. A survey to a live digital twin also takes about 30 days.

How much does it cost compared with a traditional BMS?

MachineSens typically costs 30 to 40% less than traditional wired BMS vendors, because wireless devices avoid most of the cabling and installation work.
