1 Enterprise Management Systems for Multi-Site Financial Institutions Where Buildings Connect With Business

2 The branch remains your most important channel... To be competitive in today s financial services marketplace, an extensive branch network is necessary but costly to maintain. And with profits already being squeezed, facility and energy managers at financial institutions are under more pressure to look for ways to manage their enterprise costs. Look No Further The greatest opportunity for cost savings today is the efficient operation of facilities. Opportunities for savings include optimizing energy use, changing operation and maintenance procedures, and measuring and verifying energy conservation. Now you can maximize your energy savings, control costs and get cost efficiencies you never thought possible with a couple of keyboard strokes from your desktop. How? With Ubiquity from TCS Basys Controls the leader in enterprise management. Ubiquity is the most comprehensive tool available for managing all aspects of your operations by leveraging the pervasive power and ubiquitous nature of the Internet. Ubiquity offers multi-site, remote access for complete control, monitoring, and diagnostics of mechanical systems, lighting, and energy usage for every site in your enterprise. Ubiquity has been specifically engineered for large multi-site location enterprises. It is a low cost, yet powerful solution for controlling and monitoring multiple, remotely located branches throughout your entire company. Now key people in your organization can access building operation information, make informed decisions based on real-time data and initiate policies to any building in the Ubiquity portfolio. In today s world of high travel expenses and labor costs, the ability to be everywhere at once can save you thousands of dollars per location in energy and operational expenses, as well as streamline facility operations and management.

3 ...and moving branch platforms to Ubiquity means flexibility and cost efficiencies. Although Ubiquity may be integrated throughout the entire organization from day one, the fundamental structure of Ubiquity allows for incremental, results-based application. Operations/Repair & Maintenance When an HVAC problem is detected, your technicians can troubleshoot the problem on their PC, in many cases avoiding a service call. In one independent study, a large retail banking chain found that 55% of HVAC-related repair trips were avoided by Ubiquity s remote access capability. Ubiquity also provides a variety of reports tailored to your needs that can save your company thousands of dollars annually by streamlining operations and reducing your repair and maintenance expenses Energy Efficiencies and Policies Many companies offer programmable thermostats and energy management systems. Ubiquity links theoretical savings and actual savings. Ubiquity s reporting and monitoring capabilities ensure that corporate energy policies are being carried out at the branch level (and not overridden or otherwise misused by building occupants). Comprehensive reporting provides ongoing proof that building operations are resulting in actual savings. With Ubiquity, you can monitor, report and correct unauthorized overrides of setback temperatures and other energy policies. In addition, Ubiquity can monitor electrical consumption and demand, and take appropriate measures to reduce demand charges. Information reports can be used to fine-tune and enhance energy savings even further

4 Now you can effectively manage your interaction costs. Equipment and Asset Protection Ubiquity monitors not only room temperatures, but critical points such as discharge air temperature, air conditioning compressor status, fan status, lighting conditions and status and much more. Ubiquity allows you to assign priority levels to alarms; critical alarms can be automatically sent to a maintenance person s pager, cell phone or PDA. More routine alarms are logged for review later. Ubiquity even tracks the technician s response time to alarm notifications. Streamlined Internal Operations and Policies Ubiquity is a management reporting system where users can custom-design their own reports, choosing the information of greatest interest. Information can be presented graphically, or raw data can be transferred to other programs including SAP, Oracle, SAS and others. Ubiquity also includes a selection of pre-programmed, advanced reports including cooling efficiency and heating efficiency.

5 Move beyond theoretical branch savings to actual savings. Enforcement of Corporate Standards Ubiquity s enterprise-wide administration assures that your corporate energy and operations standards are being followed at the local branch level. Ubiquity serves as your facility and energy manager at each branch, on duty 24/7 to optimize energy usage, maintain occupant comfort and watch critical equipment. Higher Quality Information for Better Decision Making Ubiquity provides constant monitoring and reporting allowing management to continuously fine-tune and improve energy and operations policies. Reports can be easily customized to filter out irrelevant data so managers can focus on the critical aspects of managing your facilities. Your management team will be armed with the most accurate, up-to-date information when making decisions Constant View of System Performance Ubiquity s comprehensive reporting of energy savings and operational cost reductions provide continuous feedback about system effectiveness. Now, you ll know exactly how much each branch is saving in energy and operational costs.
