Facilityprocesser

Facilityprocesser is a modular platform for orchestrating and automating processes across a facility, integrating data, devices, and enterprise systems to streamline operations. It provides a centralized capability to coordinate disparate components of building, plant, or campus operations.

It often acts as the core of a facility management or building management system, interfacing with sensors, controllers, and external systems via protocols such as OPC UA, BACnet, Modbus, and RESTful APIs. It can be deployed on premises, in the cloud, or as a hybrid solution, allowing flexible integration with existing IT and OT infrastructure.

Architecture typically includes a data acquisition layer, a workflow or rule engine, a processing core, and adapters for integration. It supports event-driven processing, scheduling, and batch processing, with capabilities for data normalization, state management, and audit trails. The platform is designed to handle real-time and historical data, enabling traceability and accountability across operations.

Functions include process orchestration, real-time monitoring, predictive maintenance, energy optimization, incident management, and regulatory reporting. By coordinating tasks and data flows, facilityprocesser aims to improve responsiveness, asset utilization, and overall operational efficiency.

Applications span manufacturing plants, office campuses, data centers, and healthcare facilities. Benefits include reduced downtime, energy savings, improved asset utilization, and better regulatory compliance. Challenges encompass interoperability with legacy systems, security, data quality, scalability, and the need for specialized technical expertise to implement and maintain the platform.
