Emrill, the leading integrated facilities management provider in the UAE, have taken facilities management to the next level with the recently launched building and asset optimisation EDFM model that reduces energy consumption, increase the life cycle of a building and reduces service charges.

The first of its kind in the region, Emrill’s EDFM model combinesmaintenance and energy optimisation to integrate the exact requirements for enhancing a building’s performance over a period of time. As the building ages the EDFM model is able to readjust the energy, maintenance and controls strategy to optimise the building throughits life cycle.

This unique model not only increases the asset life cycle but also decreasesthe downtime of assetswith a positive impact on financials allowingEmrill to offer free technical services for over a year funded bythe savings achieved on utilitiesof a 3-5 year contract.

Simon Roopchand, General Manager, Emrill Energy said “As Emrill focused on energy optimisation along with asset integrity we dived intodeveloping a deep understanding of controls that were required to optimise a building’sperformance, clients’ requirements, drivers and comfort boundaries. This pushed us to offer a bespoke predictive maintenance regime rather than the standard planned maintenance. The model is designed to impact energy consumption, increase building life cycle through building and asset optimisation whichwill lead to increased property value and decreased service charges for property owners.”

Buildingscan waste up to 40% of energy consumed while the average utility consumption costs of a building are 2 to 4 times the cost of the FM services.Therefore the financial and environmental benefits of the EDFM modeland its potential are immense. Additionally the lifeof the assets increase and replacement costs are reduced over the period of the building use.

“The future of FM services in the region will be impacted when technical services requires an integrated approach to building maintenance considering energy optimisation, renewable technology and theswitch from planned maintenance to condition and predictive maintenance under one commercial and operating platform.” added Mr.Roopchand.
