EcoStruxure Building Operation’s user experience provides an integrated approach to view all your building data – from HVAC, lighting, power, microgrids, renewable energy, security, fire system, and more – in a single control centre, with a mobile-friendly design for remote viewing on-the-go.
Get exceptional data visibility with rich graphics and customisable dashboards at-scale views at the device, floor, building, campus, and portfolio level. Monitor and optimise your energy use to achieve sustainability goals.
Our data management and visualisation tools include customisable charts and graphs to convey massive amounts of data to help achieve sustainability and efficiency goals. Built-in dashboards provide easier monitoring and speedier decision-making with access to data directly within EcoStruxure Building Operation without the need for third-party tools. And now, access information and insights in human, readable form with Brick Schema semantic tagging.
Explore the EcoStruxure Building Operation building management system
EcoStruxure Building Operation software is the heart of our renowned BMS.
With an open integration platform, it securely facilitates the exchange of data from both Schneider Electric and third-party energy, lighting, HVAC, fire and security, and integrated workplace management systems (IWMSs) as well as metered energy and WAGES, EV charging, and renewable energy sources to create future-ready smart buildings.
Automation servers
SpaceLogic automation servers are customisable and flexible. From an all-in-one server or controller, stand-alone servers, or I/O module system controllers, get key functionality at the edge level: control logic, trend logging, alarm supervision, and support communication as well as connectivity to I/O and field buses.

Three essential elements of next-generation BMS
Building owners, facility managers, and system integrators face increasing pressures. This paper explains factors driving evolution of BMSs and three essential elements for solving management challenges of today and tomorrow.
1. What is included in a building management system? A building management system is comprised of software and a collection of hardware, such as automation servers, room controllers, plant room controllers, sensors, and human machine interfaces (HMIs). EcoStruxure Building Operation, Schneider Electric's premier building management system, is powered by our software and industry-leading SpaceLogic connected devices. 2. What is the purpose of a building management system? A building management system is used to control and monitor building operations in one central location. This includes HVAC (heating, ventilation, air conditioning), lighting, power systems, fire protection, and security systems. With an intuitive user interface, it can also make data much easier for building/facility managers and owners much easier to understand and act on.
3. What is a smart building management system?
A smart building management system is a platform for integrating building, business, device IoT data and segment-specific speciality systems such as air quality monitoring for hospitals, or room booking systems for hotels. The ultimate purpose of a BMS is to extract value from that data to operate and maintain building systems safely, reliably, and efficiently while maximising the productivity and well-being of its occupants. Next-generation systems are far broader in scope and capabilities than traditional BMS systems. They are also easier to use, programme, scale, and update. A modern, next-generation BMS implementation spans from device sensors to building controllers (i.e. the edge) to the cloud with apps and services. Accessible from anywhere, next-generation systems enable knowledge reporting, application of analytics/AI, predictive maintenance, and self-diagnosing.
