Managing a building’s energy efficiency, security, and overall performance is becoming increasingly complex.
But with the integration of analytics & AI with your existing Building Management Systems (BMS), you can streamline operations without having to replace your current technology stack – think of it as an impact multiplier.

Smart Building on a Limited Budget
At Datore, we specialise in using data analytics to transform how buildings operate, offering solutions that:
- automate anomaly detection
- reduce energy consumption
- provide Single Pane of Glass view
- enhance efficiency with predictive analytics
- deliver actionable insights
—all without the need for costly upgrades or new systems.
By integrating our Analytics as a Service platform with your existing BMS and other building utilisation technologies, such as access control, visitor management, room booking, and IoT devices, you can achieve a centralised view of your building’s performance.
This offers unprecedented control, efficiency, and sustainability, while maximising the technology investments you’ve already made.

Smart Building Automation - Anomaly Detection and Notifications with Your Existing Systems
Traditional building management relies on manual oversight and reactive responses, which makes it challenging to catch potential issues early.
One of the greatest advantages of applying Datore’s Analytics as a Service to your existing BMS is the ability to automate anomaly detection. By tapping into the data from your current systems, you can continuously monitor performance, detect deviations from the norm, and flag them for immediate action.
You can extract data from your existing HVAC system, lighting controls, or energy meters to identify abnormal patterns, like unexpected spikes in energy usage or irregular temperature fluctuations.
These anomalies are automatically detected in real time without requiring you to install new sensors or hardware. This allows for predictive maintenance, preventing small issues from escalating into costly repairs, all while keeping your building running smoothly.

Predictive Maintenance of Critical Assets for Logistics Provider
Alerts can be configured to your existing BMS and building management workflows.
For instance, if your air conditioning unit starts consuming more energy than normal or a leak is detected by your current water monitoring system, your maintenance team will receive an alert immediately.
These automated notifications ensure quick responses and reduce downtime, all while working with your existing communication systems.
12 Steps Guide to Process Automation in Facilities Management
Reducing Energy Consumption Using Your Current Infrastructure
Energy efficiency is one of the most significant operational concerns for building managers. Our Analytics as a Service works seamlessly with your existing infrastructure to optimise energy use across heating, cooling, lighting, and other energy-demanding systems.
By analysing real-time data from your current BMS, including occupancy patterns and environmental conditions, our platform pinpoints inefficiencies and recommends adjustments to reduce waste.
For example, if your existing motion detectors or lighting systems indicate that certain areas are unoccupied, advanced analytics can suggest automatically adjusting energy settings, such as turning off lights or lowering heating.
This reduces energy consumption without requiring new equipment or control systems—maximising the value of what you already have.

Improving Energy Use in Hundreds of Commercial Buildings
A Unified ‘Single Pane of Glass’ View
One of the key benefits of Datore’s platform is its ability to integrate with various building utilisation technologies, such as access control, visitor management, room booking systems, and IoT devices—without replacing any of them.
By pulling data from these systems, you can get a Single Pane of Glass dashboard that offers a comprehensive view of all building operations.
For example, access control data from your current system can be combined with room booking and occupancy sensors to provide real-time insights into space utilisation. If certain meeting rooms or office spaces are underutilised, advanced analytics can recommend changes to optimise space use, helping you make data-driven decisions about resource allocation and energy consumption.
IoT sensors monitoring air quality, water usage, or temperature can also be integrated into the same dashboard, giving you a complete view of your building’s health in one place.
This ‘single pane of glass’ approach simplifies building management and maximises the return on your existing systems, offering centralised control without the complexity of managing disparate systems
Enhancing Efficiency with Predictive Analytics
With data flowing from your existing BMS and other systems, predictive analytics capabilities unlock additional opportunities for efficiency. By analysing historical data, you can forecast future trends, such as peak times for energy consumption or maintenance needs.
For example, if your HVAC system is showing signs of wear based on past performance data, the platform will alert you to take preventive action, extending the lifespan of your assets and reducing downtime.
This predictive approach works with your current technology, making the transition to data-driven decision-making seamless. There’s no need to invest in costly new infrastructure—we can help you extract more value from your existing systems.
Unlock the Full Potential of Your Existing Systems with Analytics as a Service
At Datore, we believe in working with the systems you already have in place to improve efficiency, sustainability, and decision-making.
By integrating our Analytics as a Service solution with your existing Building Management Systems and other technologies, we can automate anomaly detection, reduce energy consumption, and provide a single, centralised view of your building’s performance.
There’s no need for expensive upgrades or overhauls—let’s enhance what’s already working, helping you make smarter decisions while keeping operational costs low.
