挑战
In January 2001, the new City of Hamilton was formed by amalgamating seven neighboring municipalities. This created a diversified portfolio of approximately 3,000 properties, 700 buildings, 125,000 acres of land, and over 8.5 million square feet of space, with a combined real estate value exceeding $1.5 billion (Canadian) dollars. The City faced the challenge of reorganizing and merging each municipality’s physical and human resources, which were often plagued by inconsistent and conflicting information. Additionally, they needed to maintain staff morale in the face of enormous change. The City required an Integrated Workplace Management System (IWMS) to manage space, maintenance, operations, furniture, equipment, and real estate effectively.
关于客户
The City of Hamilton, located in Ontario, Canada, was formed in January 2001 following the Province of Ontario’s legislation to amalgamate seven neighboring municipalities. This amalgamation created a diversified portfolio that includes approximately 3,000 properties, 700 buildings, 125,000 acres of land, and over 8.5 million square feet of space, with a combined real estate value exceeding $1.5 billion (Canadian) dollars. The City of Hamilton is responsible for managing a vast array of municipal properties and facilities, ensuring efficient operations, maintenance, and real estate management. The City’s Public Works Department, particularly the Fleet and Facilities Division, plays a crucial role in overseeing these responsibilities. The City aims to provide excellent customer service, maintain high standards of facility management, and ensure cost-effective operations across its diverse portfolio.
解决方案
The City of Hamilton selected ARCHIBUS as their Integrated Workplace Management System (IWMS) to address their needs. They developed an overall project schedule with milestones and target dates for the implementation phases, processes, and activities. Responsibilities were delegated to various sub-committees to review and manage the project’s deliverables. A pilot location was implemented, fully audited, and an inventory of CAD drawings, space, furniture, equipment, and preventive maintenance procedures was generated. The CAD drawings were refined, and the database was populated with the inventory information. ARCHIBUS Web Central was used to handle work requests made by users throughout the City using a standard Web browser and their intranet site. This provided users with immediate confirmation when requests were received and allowed them to check the status of their requests throughout the process. Additionally, a priority wireless device application called Nomad, a Blackberry-based work order system configured by ARCHIBUS Business Partner Horizant, was implemented to aid in processing the City’s 20,000 work orders annually. The City also implemented a fully automated preventive maintenance routine that schedules and transmits preventive maintenance work orders to external and internal crafts persons.

Case Study
Turning A Stadium Into A Smart Building
Honeywell created what it called the “intelligent system” for the National Stadium in Beijing, China, turning the venue for the opening and closing events at the 2008 Summer Olympics into a “smart building.” Designed by highly controversial artist Ai Weiwei, the “Bird’s Nest” remains one of the most impressive feats of stadium architecture in the world. The 250,000 square meter structure housed more than 100,000 athletes and spectators at a time. To accommodate such capacity, China turned to Honeywell’s EBI Integrated Building Management System to create an integrated “intelligent system” for improved building security, safety and energy efficiency.
Case Study
Smart Street Light Network (Copenhagen)
Key stakeholders are taking a comprehensive approach to rethinking smart city innovation. City leaders have collaborated through partnerships involving government, research institutions and solution providers. The Copenhagen Solutions Lab is one of the leading organizations at the forefront of this movement. By bringing together manufacturers with municipal buyers, the Copenhagen Solutions Lab has catalyzed the development and deployment of next-generation smart city innovations. Copenhagen is leveraging this unique approach to accelerate the implementation of smart city solutions. One of the primary focus areas is LED street lighting.
Case Study
Buoy Status Monitoring with LoRa
The Netherlands are well-known for their inland waterways, canals, sluices and of course port activities. The Dutch Ministry of Infrastructure indicates that there are thousands of buoys and fixed items in and near water environments that would profit from IoT monitoring. One of the problems with buoys for example, is that they get hit by ships and the anchor cable breaks. Without connectivity, it takes quite some time to find out that something has happened with that buoy. Not to mention the costs of renting a boat to go to the buoy to fix it. Another important issue, is that there is no real-time monitoring of the buoys at this moment. Only by physically visiting the object on the water, one gains insight in its status.

China Mobile Smart Parking
Smart Parking, powered by NB-IoT technology, is making it easier for drivers to find free parking spots. Cities can better manage their parking assets and maximize the revenue available to them as a result. Drivers searching for parking create congestion and pollution by circling and hunting for available parking. Smart Parking services are able to significantly ease these problems by guiding a driver directly to a parking space.

Barcelona Case Study
Barcelona’s heavy traffic and its associated high levels of pollution were the primary factors that motivated some companies and universities to work on strategies for improving traffic in the city centre. Bitcarrier is one of the technologies involved in the In4Mo Project, whose main objective is to develop the applications that form the core of smart mobility, one of the fundamental pillars of the smart city concept.
