Artificial intelligence (AI) is a growing commodity across all industries, and the biggest challenge is managing its deployment and operations. Scenera, the leading technology company dedicated to protecting human security and privacy while streamlining AIoT operations, has launched its AI Topology Manager (SATM), a system for orchestrating AI across an entire deployment network, and today announces its Partnered with Blume, a Business, known development-as-a-service (BDaaS) provider for emerging technology companies, to drive commercial adoption of Sceneras SATM in the commercial real estate and smart building industries.
The digital transformation of the commercial real estate industry promises advances in building security, employee well-being and safety, space efficiency, and advances in environmental, social, and corporate governance (ESG) across the board. The challenge faced by many building owners and managers is a myriad of point solutions that are costly, overly complex, and inefficient, as new infrastructure is often implemented without considering existing data sources.
“Today, property owners and occupiers are interested in using occupancy data to generate savings and ensure safe and productive workplaces. Existing infrastructure is the easiest and most cost-effective way to get this data,” said Brian Vaughn, senior director of digital advisory at Cushman & Wakefield.
Wachter, a US-based nationwide solutions integrator specializing in consulting, design, deployment, and support of enterprise technology systems that solve real-world problems, shared a similar sentiment. “It’s important to rely on software partners who can deliver actionable business intelligence at scale, and solutions like Scenera enable Wachter to deliver the outcomes our customers need to stay competitive and advance their missions while they while remaining easy to install and configure while ultimately reducing training costs and increasing customer value,” said Matthew Tyler, vice president of strategic innovation at Wachter.
Scenera has developed a standard data platform for existing IP cameras and IoT devices that centralizes and streamlines data management and analysis, ultimately providing multiple use cases that deliver value to the building owner, building manager and occupants. As a solution, existing IoT infrastructure is integrated into an intuitive, easy-to-use platform and used to identify security threats, security risks, occupancy patterns, and more. Scenera has launched its commercial service globally with customers in Korea – the LGE Group through S&I Corp. – and Welsoc in Japan, serving Japanese local government facilities.
“Scenera offers a simple, easy-to-use platform that addresses the key challenges faced by today’s real estate and facilities managers,” said Andy Boliek, Blume’s founder and CEO. “We see significant early market traction due to strong product market suitability.”
Scenera is now deployed globally and has forged strong partnerships with leading systems integrators, and its strategic partnership with Blume will accelerate both its direct and channel go-to-market (GTM) efforts with a focus on the North American markets.
“We are very excited to be working with Blume, which offers deep and insightful relationships within the PropTech industry,” said David Lee, co-founder, and CEO of Scenera. “Together we offer the Scenera AI Topology Management (SATM) service for our customers’ existing smart building solutions, optimizing how AI and cloud computing can best be orchestrated.”
