Atrius builds cutting-edge, comprehensive solutions to enhance how buildings, businesses, and people interact. As part of the Intelligent Spaces Group at Acuity Brands, they share a mission to reshape how people operate, work in, and experience spaces.
From the world’s largest airports to the architectural wonders of enterprise businesses and cutting-edge venues, Atrius understands spaces are more than walls, windows, and ceilings. Atrius cloud applications focus on extracting value from building data faster and easier. Their industry-leading products in sustainability reporting, energy management, indoor wayfinding, and real-time asset tracking enable professionals to manage entire portfolios as easily as they could one.
Atrius is backed by the power of Acuity Brands and when combined with the competence of Distech Controls, provides solutions to meet energy reduction goals and optimize building performance as the Intelligent Spaces Group (ISG). As the world transforms from analog to digital, ISG delivers open, market-leading edge to cloud solutions that make buildings smarter, safer, and greener.
The industry has been arguing about how to construct smarter buildings for years—Division 25, integrators wanting earlier involvement, consultants pitching their frameworks, prefab vendors pushing integration upstream.
Hannah Baker, engineer at Willow, walks through how DFW Airport built a CBM program that actually stuck, from training a non-technical QA team to triage thousands of faults, to graduating recurring issues into automated work orders, to tracking a single KPI called 'unsuccessfully actioned' that finally gave leadership visibility into whether closed work orders were actually fixing the problem.
Jose de Castro, CTO of Mapped, shows how one of the world's largest retailers moved restroom operations from schedule-based janitorial rounds to condition-based workflows by combining foot traffic sensors, flush counts, soap levels, and occupancy predictions into AI-summarized work orders that land directly in the existing CMMS, with no new dashboards or tools for technicians to learn.
Brad Dameron from the University of Iowa's Asset Optimization Team and Katie Rossman from Clockworks Analytics walk through how Iowa handles 3,500 faults per day without burying their maintenance shops, showing the exact triage, routing, and closeout workflow they built to turn fault detection into planned work orders that look and feel identical to every other work order in the system.
