ASHE Region 6 Annual Conference Presentation
Better Management of BAS Alarms
Mayo Civic Center
Rochester, Minnesota
Date: Thursday, March 30, 2023
Time: 12:15 – 1:15 PM

Miles Ryan, P.E. and Molly Meyer, P.E. of QSE will be co-presenting with Jake Humphreys, a Quality Construction Project Manager from the University of Iowa Hospitals & Clinics.

Their presentation will be focused on how to better manage BAS alarms. Read the abstract below:

Far too often, building operators are overwhelmed with the number of alarms generated on their Building Automation System (BAS). This results in alarms being ignored, the critical ones not identified and addressed in a timely manner, and even decision paralysis. The alarms become a liability instead of an asset, and their intended purpose is lost. This presentation will discuss the steps that can be taken in both new construction and existing facilities to improve the function of alarming and allow building operators to make better use of their BAS.
