BAM 039: A deep dive into upgrading a building automation system
By Smart Buildings Academy on Nov 28, 2016 6:00:04 AM
In Episode 39 of the Building Automation Monthly Podcast, I am doing something I've never done before. I am giving you access to the best recording from my new book. This recording is amazing and I encourage you to take advantage of it.
In today's episode I will cover:
- How to know if you need to upgrade your BAS ( if you don't ask yourself these four questions you could be upgrading a perfectly good system)
- Why so many upgrade projects fail (and the five planning steps you can take to make sure yours doesn't)
- Twelve steps that every upgrade project should include ( step number seven, writing out your upgrade plan and how to roll back the upgrade will keep your building running in case something goes wrong)
Thanks for Listening!
I'm glad to have you here, and I look forward to your feedback in the comments below.
