Using CMS Buildings day to day.
From the morning dashboard to end-of-life decommissioning — how the platform guides your team through the asset lifecycle, with every step gated and audit-logged.
Dashboard overview.
The dashboard surfaces the day's work and the system's health, so the team can focus on exceptions rather than manual review.
- Morning briefing of today's open work orders
- Transfer gap indicator catches asset imbalances across sites
- Review queue for pending approvals — approve, reject, or escalate, with overdue items flagged automatically
- System status panel for component health and queued records
- Triage pattern auto-advances clean work and routes exceptions to the right person, rather than surfacing every item as a task
A guided workflow for every stage.
Each stage is gated, attributable, and audit-logged — no step happens off-system.
Commissioning
A four-gate commissioning wizard — scope, inspection, tagging, and validation — captures asset details and condition checks before anything goes live.
Asset tagging
Live operator scan-in timestamps every asset to a named operator from the first touch.
Tracking
Search and filter assets across lifecycle status and location hierarchy — always know where an asset is and what state it's in.
Transfers
Inter-floor, inter-site, and inter-project moves run through approval chains with SLA deadlines and hand-off sign-off.
Reconciliation
Expected-vs-actual counts and field mismatches surface for guided resolution, each correction captured with a reason-for-change.
Decommissioning
End-of-life retire, retain, or redeploy decisions with engineer sign-off, optional two-person authorization, a tracked deadline per asset, and linked evidence documents.
Discovery and integration for your BMS network.
Discovery is fully available today. At-scale integration features are in active development — badges below reflect current status honestly.
Discovery search
Natural-language and structured search across the normalized point catalog, with access scope and restrictions shown on every result.
Access-gated use
Open access proceeds; restricted requires acknowledgment; expired is blocked with alternatives suggested.
Bulk onboarding
Batch device and point intake with statistical spot-check validation instead of individual verification.
Location hierarchy & reconfiguration
Eight-level model with bulk reconfiguration and full connection-test confirmation.
Capacity planning
Utilization heat maps and projected growth overlays.
Compliance and operations reporting.
Four reports, all built on the same underlying audit and activity data — no separate export pipeline to maintain.
Audit trail
Every event, filterable by user and action type, tagged with the governance principle it satisfies, exportable to CSV.
Vendor & access approvals
Approval status and expiry across projects, with alerts for anything lapsing.
Asset history
The full per-asset timeline from commissioning through decommissioning.
Effort & capacity
Manager-level effort by activity type (commissioning, transfer, reconciliation, decommissioning), plus capacity projections against your portfolio breakpoint.
What you'll see depends on your role.
Every screen is gated by access rights, so each role sees exactly the dashboards and actions it's authorized for. See the full role → access mapping in the Configuration Guide.
