Modern hospitals require uninterrupted operations, optimal indoor conditions, and strict safety standards. This Smart Hospital BMS Case Study demonstrates how AdiLogiX SCADA, integrated using the BACnet along with Modbus(TCPIP/RS485), OPC-UA, Siemens-S7, Omron Fins, and MQTT was deployed as an intelligent Building Management System to centrally monitor and control critical hospital infrastructure—such as HVAC, lighting, power, and safety systems—while significantly improving energy efficiency, patient comfort, and operational reliability.
The Client’s Challenges
Challenge
- Disconnected building automation systems across HVAC, lighting, power monitoring, fire alarms, and utility systems from multiple vendors
- Lack of a standardized communication protocol to integrate diverse hospital infrastructure systems
- Difficulty maintaining precise temperature, humidity, and air quality in critical areas such as ICUs, OTs, and laboratories
- High energy consumption due to manual control, fixed schedules, and lack of real-time optimization
- Limited centralized visibility of alarms, faults, and equipment health across the hospital
- Manual reporting and compliance documentation processes, increasing operational overhead
- Room Wise Compliance Report
Impact on Operations
- Delayed response to HVAC faults, power issues, and safety alarms due to fragmented monitoring
- Inconsistent indoor environmental conditions affecting patient comfort and staff productivity
- Increased energy costs from inefficient HVAC and lighting operation
- Higher maintenance effort due to lack of predictive insights and historical trend analysis
- Operational inefficiencies caused by siloed data across engineering, facility, and management teams
- Challenges in meeting healthcare safety, comfort, and regulatory standards consistently
Our Approach
We implemented AdiLogiX SCADA–based Smart Hospital BMS using the BACnet protocol, designed to provide centralized, reliable, and interoperable building automation for healthcare facilities:
- Conducting a detailed assessment of hospital infrastructure including chillers, AHUs, VAVs, lighting systems, electrical panels, UPS, generators, pumps, and fire safety systems
- Designing a BACnet/IP and BACnet MS/TP–based communication architecture to enable seamless interoperability between multi-vendor BMS devices and AdiLogiX SCADA
- Centralizing real-time monitoring and control of all building systems on a unified SCADA platform
- Implementing zone-wise environmental control for ICUs, OTs, wards, and public areas
- Configuring intelligent alarms, notifications, and event management for critical systems
- Enabling on-premise data logging, trend analysis, and reporting to support audits and compliance
- Defining KPIs to measure improvements in energy efficiency, response time, uptime, comfort levels, and maintenance performance
