In this episode, host Jon Lester and Siemens Cybersecurity Manager for Automation and Connected Devices, Francesco Negosanti discuss the importance and strengths of BACnet Secure Connect. As building connectivity increases, secure end-to-end communication is needed to ensure cybersecure buildings, whether new or existing. Do you want to deep dive into the topic? Tune in now!
Aging fire safety setups present challenges: spare parts availability, high false alarm rates, code compliance, or teams operating in a manual, reactive mode. Stretching to the limit eventually results in a rip-and-replace emergency modernization. In this episode, Thomas Zermin, Global Portfolio Manager for Fire Safety Services at Siemens Smart Infrastructure, explains why a strategic, phased modernization may take longer on the calendar, but is the fastest way to start leveraging new functionalities, and gain planning security and budget control. The benefits show real customer stories: 80% fewer false alarms, 30'000 EUR savings in staff efficiency, or incident reduction from 300 to 3 per week!
The average life span of a fire safety setup is 20-25 years – quite long compared to other disciplines. However, if we assume that a building has a life cycle of about 60 years, owners must expect to modernize their fire safety system 2-3 times. And these cycles are more than a 1:1 replacement. In this episode, Thomas Zermin, Global Portfolio Manager for Fire Safety Services at Siemens Smart Infrastructure, talks about the changes and constants in his 30 years of industry experience, some new drivers and the opportunities that IoT and cloud connectivity bring.

Fire safety is just one part of a whole building – when an incident happens, different systems need to operate together perfectly: alarms, sprinklers, gas extinguishing, smoke extraction, access control, elevators, etc. In this episode, Ruud Geelen, VP of Service Portfolio, and Miguel Coll, Portfolio Director Fire Safety Services at Siemens Smart Infrastructure, explain how connecting it all into a digital layer makes buildings more safe, efficient, and responsive to very individual building dynamics.
Digital fire safety services gather massive amounts of performance data – and it doesn’t end there. In this episode, Ruud Geelen, VP of Service Portfolio, and Miguel Coll, Portfolio Director Fire Safety Services at Siemens Smart Infrastructure, talk about how to leverage this data further: rule-based scripts, pattern recognition, algorithms, automated analysis, and automated recommendations. Today, you do maintenance when something happens. Tomorrow, you act before it happens!
Digital fire safety services can make building operations significantly more efficient, flexible, and safe. In this episode, Ruud Geelen, VP of Service Portfolio, and Miguel Coll, Portfolio Director Fire Safety Services at Siemens Smart Infrastructure, talk about what's driving them to develop new services, how a public subway operator avoids false fire alarms in tunnels with continuous system performance monitoring, and where the journey of digital services is going forward.
