A holistic approach to assessing smart buildings
The commercial smart building market expected to grow to $70 billion by 2023 according to reports from CABA, Navigant Research and Markets and Markets. But how are building owners developing their investment strategies without a common, industry-accepted methodology to measuring building intelligence?
To drive wider adoption of smart buildings, the industry needs a comprehensive, reliable, and measurable framework of assessment criteria for smart buildings. TIA’s Smart Building Program features an industry-led working group that established this holistic assessment criteria. The goal is to help building owners understand the current operational intelligence levels of their property and provide guidance and a roadmap for the journey to smart, while ensuring the ROI in future technology deployments.

WHAT IS A SMART BUILDING?
The definition of a smart building has evolved over time, but only when all building systems are fully integrated and sharing data, so they be managed through a single pane of glass with minimal human intervention, can a building truly be considered smart by today’s expectations.
SPIRE Smart Building Assessment and Rating with TIA-Developed Assessment Criteria
Developed with the combined working experience of TIA members and UL, the SPIRE smart building assessment and rating program is designed to help evaluate the performance and technologies of smart buildings. It’s based on TIA's transparent, industry-driven framework that’s aimed at improving smart building performance and occupant experience.
