The Big Data Alliance (BDA) has been emerging from the Horizon2020 MATRYCS project as a structured collaborative space with the aim to bring together policy makers, research institutions, private companies and industry associations in order to increase the use of data to solve building lifecycle management challenges.

Plutinsus is joining this important alliance to contribute innovative concepts and resources as we have been developing a software for the data-driven operation, maintenance and optimization of buildings and energy systems. The challenges to implement the decarbonization can only be solved by a concerted effort of the various stakeholders. We welcome the efforts of the BDA to facilitate and oversee the creation of challenge-driven partnerships and consortia, and the joint development of solutions.

BuildingMinds, RICS, Microsoft and pom+ have come together to form the International Building Performance and Data Initiative (IBPDI) on February 27, 2020. The object is to create the “International Building Performance & Data Standard”, consisting of the “International Building Operations Standard” (IBOS) and the Common Data Model for Real Estate.

Plutinsus is joining this important initiative as a member of the Digital Building Twin cluster. The various IBPDI clusters cover the data that is related to the operation phase of a building. Such a comprehensive standard will drive innovation and reduce the cost to implement smarter buildings that are more energy-efficient and have a lower cost of maintenance.
