Are you frustrated with the revolving door of talent in the building automation sector? Ever trained an employee only to watch them be lured away by a competitor? If these scenarios sound familiar, our latest podcast episode is for you. Why Employee Retention Matters In the rapidly advancing world of building automation, maintaining a skilled and dedicated workforce isn't just an HR concern—it's a core business imperative. The cost of replacing a trained technician can range from 50% to 200% of their salary. Given these numbers, the significance of retention becomes crystal clear. In This Episode We dive deep into: The Reasons People Quit: Beyond just the lure of higher pay, what are the factors pushing trained professionals to jump ship? Strategies Tailored for Contractors and Building Owners: While contractors battle in a competitive market, building owners, especially those bound by governmental pay structures, face a different set of challenges. The Data Behind Retention: We'll provide statistics that every business leader needs to be aware of, showcasing the undeniable ROI of investing in employee growth and job satisfaction. Key Takeaways Compensation isn't the Sole Factor: As many as 87% of millennials prioritize professional development in a job. This offers a hint for organizations: upskilling might be the key to locking in your talent. The Power of Non-Monetary Benefits: For governmental building owners, emphasizing benefits like job security and long-term pension plans can offset salary limitations. Investing in Training Pays Off: Organizations with strong training programs boast an impressive 218% higher income per employee.…

הפעל מאוחר יותר הפעל מאוחר יותר רשימות לייק אהבתיHey there! Welcome to Episode 418 of the Smart Buildings Academy Podcast with Phil Zito. In this episode, we dive deeper into building automation systems (BAS) for facility management. We cover topics like the purpose and objectives of implementing a BAS, its components, protocols, benefits, and some real-world examples. If you're new here, we have 417+ episodes for you to explore at smartbuildingsacademy.com. So, grab a drink, sit back, and let's talk building automation! We kick off by defining a building automation system, which is an overlay of a control system, providing visualization and control of those control systems through a multi-layered architecture. We dive into the four-tier architecture, which includes the server layer, supervisory devices, field controller layer, and sensor actuator level. This architecture is common across all building systems like lighting, access control, and audio-visual, making it super important to understand. Next, we chat about BACnet, the most common protocol for building automation systems. It helps different controllers from various manufacturers communicate with one another by creating a common data model and communication aspects for both serial and IP networks. So there you have it! A quick summary of episode 418, where we explore the fascinating world of building automation systems.
