SMART BUILDING TECHNOLOGY IN THE NEW NORMAL

Managing any property or development is challenging, but the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic made it next to impossible without the help of technology.

According to Joseph Tay, managing director of Proptech company Inventi, virtually every building in the Philippines has incorporated technology in some form as a response to the pandemic, but the most successful in the new normal have been those that have made technology an indispensable part of their property management strategy.

Inventi pioneered smart buildings in the Philippines with Smart Building Solutions (SBS), the company’s flagship property management software. Co-Founder & CTO Eds Encarnacion said that properties that have fared well in the pandemic include some of the earliest adopters of SBS, properties that include office buildings, residential condominiums, retail stores, and even school campuses.
