FSG Smart Buildings Announces Chariot, A Multi-Site Building Automation And Enterprise IoT Software

The Chariot platform unifies mixed buildings and multi-site portfolios as a building automation software with robust energy management capabilities combining lighting and HVAC controls with smart metering and IoT devices

FSG Smart Buildings, a division of Facility Solutions Group, announced the release of Chariot, a Building Automation System (BAS) software with robust Energy Management System (EMS) capabilities combining lighting and HVAC controls with smart metering and IoT devices for multi-site command, control, and visibility. Chariot is capable of being a stand-alone solution or tying together disparate and legacy systems across portfolios of buildings and being a single pane of glass for all things facility-related.

“Chariot brings affordable building automation and IoT solutions to the commercial market in one easy-to-use software platform,” said Justin McCullough, FSG Chief Product Officer. “The problem we see is too many proprietary systems not being expandable and IoT-friendly, and we think Chariot is the best way to extend the life of systems and avoid costly rip and replace scenarios.”
