Some quick thoughts:

  • This type of solution dovetails with the emergence of energy services firms, especially for the SMB market

  • Virtual Modeling (or Building Information Modeling) could also leverage the same resource data and monitors

But I wonder when the bigger infrastructure companies such as Johnson Controls, Siemens, Honeywell etc will develop and market more comprehensive (and intuitive) systems for resource management in facilities….perhaps that is Agilewaves exit strategy?
