Connected systems. Clear insights.
At Zeitfracht Medien in Erfurt, cunnect supports the gradual development of existing building management technology. Our contribution combines structured access to operational information with clear system visualisation. The focus is on a retrofit that understands the existing installation and creates a better overview, rather than treating modernisation as a reason to replace established technology wholesale.
The challenge
Existing building management technology reflects requirements that have evolved over many years. A contemporary operational overview therefore needs more than transferring existing values into a different interface. Their meaning, assignment and presentation must reflect the actual functional context.
The project called for a supplementary overview that makes relevant operational information understandable while respecting existing functions. Technical documentation, available information and clear presentation needed to be brought together.
The challenge was to translate the existing situation into a useful view: which information matters, how does it relate to other information, and how can it be shown without unnecessary complexity? These questions guided our integration work.
Our approach
cunnect structured selected operational information and prepared it for a common system visualisation. Existing documentation supported the work, with information assigned to its technical functions. This turned numerous individual items into an understandable presentation.
The system views reveal relevant relationships and help users orient themselves within an established technical environment. The project scope concentrated on supplementary information and presentation; it does not imply that broader interventions were implemented.
This clearly defined approach is an important part of a carefully considered retrofit. It makes the value of a new overview accessible and allows further steps to be evaluated on the basis of a better understanding of the existing building services.
The reference demonstrates proportionate modernisation: understand the existing technology, organise information meaningfully and develop a clear operational overview. It illustrates our expertise in the further development of established building services systems.
