Solutions · Building Automation
Building automation on open standards.
KNX, BACnet, DALI and Modbus integration that connects HVAC, lighting, metering and life-safety interfaces into one supervised, maintainable building system.
Overview
Open protocols. Clear ownership. Lower lifecycle cost.
We design building automation for developers, consultants and facility managers who need reliable control today and the freedom to extend, maintain or change vendors tomorrow. Systems are documented, labelled and handed over with the knowledge your team needs.
What we deliver
HVAC control
Integration of chillers, AHUs, FCUs and VRF systems with schedules, setpoints and alarms.
Lighting control
DALI and KNX lighting control for common areas, car parks, façades and landscape.
Energy management
Metering, sub-metering and dashboards for consumption tracking and optimisation.
Supervision & alarms
A central supervisory interface with trends, alarm routing and remote diagnostics.
Systems integration
Gateways between BACnet, KNX, Modbus and MQTT so different systems work as one.
Documentation & handover
Points lists, schematics and as-built records that make the system maintainable.
Systems & technologies
The right technology for the project.
We can work to a consultant’s specification or help develop one, and we coordinate closely with MEP contractors so interfaces are agreed early and commissioning runs to programme.

Questions
Frequently asked questions
What is building automation?
Building automation is the integrated control and monitoring of a building’s technical systems, such as HVAC, lighting, shading, metering and access, so they run to schedules, respond to occupancy and can be supervised from one place.
Which protocols does Fortue integrate in buildings?
Fortue works with open protocols including KNX, BACnet, DALI, Modbus and MQTT, selected according to the building, its existing plant and the requirements of the facility team.
Can building automation reduce energy consumption?
It can help. Schedules, occupancy and daylight control, setpoint limits and metering make energy use visible and avoid waste. Actual savings depend on the building, its systems and how they are operated, so Fortue does not quote generic percentages.
Does Fortue work on commercial and hospitality buildings?
Yes. Fortue integrates automation for offices and workspaces, hotels and serviced apartments, and mixed use developments across the UAE.
