BACnet Makes the Grade

What do you do if you need to integrate fire systems, security systems, utility systems, and energy management systems made by more than 35 different vendors, located in 435 buildings, and spread over an entire state? And what do you do if some of these buildings are high-tech research facilities, where accurate control, fast response, and secure communications are absolutely essential? Now consider that the system needs to be operational all of the time, no excuses, but the budget and labor hours for this project are not unlimited. What do you do? You choose BACnet, of course.
