Challenge In the wake of Hurricane Katrina’s destruction in 2005, Tulane University saw an opportunity and a responsibility to advance campus-wide sustainability and energy efficiency. Tulane’s buildings represent two-thirds of the university’s carbon footprint. After initial work to upgrade physical systems, the University turned to IBM and Johnson Controls to help further improve century-old Richardson Memorial Hall, home to the Tulane School of Architecture. Solution IBM Intelligent Building Management Solution IBM installation and configuration services Johnson Controls Integration services to connect to existing building systems Customer Value Tulane can collect, manage and analyze data from buildings to gain intelligence and insight to energy and facilities management. Richardson Memorial Hall will become a “living laboratory” where this insight leads to understanding on the impact of design/operations on performance. Integrating digital technology with best practices of building systems to create an exemplar for other historic buildings plus contemporary buildings on campus. Case Study: Tulane University Industry: Education Profile: Founded in 1834, Tulane is one of the most highly regarded and selective independent research universities in the United States. Tulane offers undergraduate and graduate degrees in the liberal arts, science and engineering, architecture, business, law, social work, medicine and public health. Its school of architecture has taken a lead position in sustainability Featured Products & Services: IBM Global Business Services, IBM Intelligent Building Management solution, Johnson Controls services

Air Handler Simultaneously Heating and Cooling - Based on Valve Positions. The solution found 3 units with this condition. The system had been programmed to leave valves always open. The Building Automation System was reprogrammed to correct the problem. Air Handler Heating Control Alert - Low Building Zone Temperature This solution found 8 units under this condition. This rule is looking for room temperatures that have fallen below 67 degrees over a rolling 2 hour window. In looking at the possible root cause of this, possible reason, which is common, is the cooling system of the unit needs to be cleaned and flushed so the chilled water can flow more freely. because minerals and other debris in the water over time can clog the system and cause it not to respond to valve position changes. Air HandlerTemperature Sensor Drift Detected The solution found 6 units under this condition. This rule is looking at the average room temperature and the temperature of the air as it returns back to the unit. If the delta between the two temperatures are greater than 3 degrees then there is a problem. A possible cause was the return air damper may not be open and this could be caused by a faulty actuator or other mechanical problem. Examples of Issues Identified Continuous improvements at Tulane

CHALLENGES TO TRANSFORMATION Resistance to change Pride in status quo Process has never been challenged Fear: “You are automating me out of a job.” Don’t believe the savings will occur For Facilities Management supplier: Cost reduction = Revenue reduction (short term) RECOMMENDED ACTION PLAN Short term: reprioritize tasks Long term: –New career paths –Retraining required Create self-funding model Put savings opportunities in context Gain supplier executive buy-in –Key strategic value proposition

Assess client’s data availability of maintenance cost ◦ Labor / Materials / Subcontracted ◦ % of each element of the total Does client use a Work Order logistic system Is a standardized Preventative Maintenance program in place Do the maintenance techs record hours/cost against Work Orders What level of data is tracked ◦ How is it categorized ◦ How much history Build credibility using client’s data
21
Site “starting point” is a critical component of ROI Benefits ◦ Maintenance productivity ◦ Planned maintenance schedules ◦ Equipment efficiency levels ◦ Depth of implementation ◦ Type of space (office, manufacturing, etc.) Implementation Cost ◦ Levels of existing instrumentation ◦ Building Control System sophistication ◦ Levels & types of connection to network ◦ Work Order logistics system (version of Maximo) ◦ Skilled staff availability
