With almost twenty years of building integration experience under our belts, and almost two years of dedicated development, we’re excited to announce the release of our next-generation Avani platform launching today. This marks the first major update to our platform since setting our sights on sustainability and decarbonisation almost two years ago. The updated Avani platform brings a host of transformative features that will revolutionise how building owners, investors, and occupiers approach decarbonisation and ESG initiatives.
The Mission
Avani is a leading property portfolio solution that gives our clients the complete visibility, new insights, and advanced features required to rapidly decarbonise their assets by changing the way they behave. We believe the easier it is to solve complex problems, the greater the impact will be. That’s why everything we do is designed to make it easier for our clients to unlock a greater impact. This release marks the next step in that journey, further empowering our clients to embrace decarbonisation with complete confidence.
Decarbonisation Features That Empower Change
Our journey towards decarbonisation is guided by our core strategies: Access, Change, and Track (ACT). Let’s delve into a few of the exciting decarbonisation features that Avani brings to the table:
1. Net Zero Tracker
Imagine having a single screen that provides a holistic view of how your entire portfolio is tracking towards your Net Zero targets – that’s exactly what our Net Zero Tracker offers. By accessing real-time energy and emissions data, clients can actively track their performance towards Net Zero and identify areas where further changes are needed. It’s an incredibly powerful tool, and we’re proud to provide our clients with this level of visibility.
2. Demand Response
Easily our most anticipated new feature, our Demand Response functionality allows clients to access real-time and forecasted grid data, enabling automatic load reduction during peak demand periods to avoid higher costs. By tracking the results and using sophisticated algorithms, we empower clients to optimise their energy usage, contributing to cost savings and a greener future.
3. Insights
We’ve turbocharged our popular Insights feature to leverage energy data (including water, gas, thermal, and waste) to set benchmarks across entire portfolios. By automatically identifying outliers and tracking them, Avani empowers clients to detect energy wastage and enable change where necessary. This unprecedented access to advanced, portfolio-wide insights represents a major step forward in the journey to decarbonising the built environment.
4. Visualisations
Enhancing our Visualisations was another priority for the new Avani release. We’re providing an improved and standardised way of visualising essential information, especially regarding energy and emissions. Clients gain easy access to crucial data through a single, reliable source, allowing them to track each building’s performance and compare it to others, promoting awareness and identifying opportunities for improvement.
A Look Under the Hood: Other Noteworthy Features
Our powerful automation and decarbonisation features wouldn’t be possible without tuning up some of our key back-end system functionality. We’ve included some of the key features below that allow the Avani platform to perform at a higher level than ever before:
1. Analytics
Through our refined tagging system, Avani’s advanced Analytics model has become even more powerful and efficient, reducing labour significantly and streamlining processes for an unparalleled user experience.
2. Data Aggregation Layer
Our development team have worked hard to introduce a new data aggregation layer which seamlessly transforms vast amounts of data into simplified totals, enabling lightning-fast display and navigation across hundreds of assets in a single interface.
3. Unmatched Data Health
Our data quality is what sets us apart. With sophisticated algorithms constantly monitoring data completeness and quality, Avani offers users complete confidence in the accuracy of their data and lays the groundwork for automated issue identification and resolution.
Next Steps: The Journey Continues
Innovation never stops. Today’s release not only represents a major evolution of the Avani platform, but it significantly expands the range of possibilities now available to building owners, investors, and occupiers in Australia and beyond. We’ve spent many months building a new framework for building optimisation, automation, and decarbonisation. Now, in the spirit of progress, we’ve set our sights clearly on what’s next. Your feedback has been invaluable in the ongoing development of the Avani platform and we look forward to incorporating user insights into future releases.
