Sumitomo integrates Building Management Systems with WebAccess

BMS is a combination of hardware and software that enable communication between a building's systems, including heating, ventilation, air conditioning, fire-alarm, lighting control, and security systems. More importantly, BMS also provides communication across multiple buildings, which allows for aggregation of multiple facilities to reduce maintenance costs and other significant reductions in operational costs.

Sumitomo provides a turnkey system including network equipment, controllers, engineering and technical support for facilities and building automation in Japan and Asia.

Web based BMS systems are supplied by Sumitomo Ideal Information Networking (siin) of Tokyo, Japan.
