Data Quality Visibility
Energy Hemorrhaging HVAC systems fighting each other. Equipment running inefficiently during peak demand. Compressors cycling unnecessarily. Your bill shows the symptom, not the causemonths later. → 18% average energy waste in unmonitored facilities
A BMS reads a different chilled water flow than the standalone meter. Sub-meters conflict with utility bills. Without a single normalised data layer, every optimisation model is working from unreconciled, context-free noise. aQ Core ends that. It is the single reconciled truth that all Aqueduct outcome services are built on.
aQ Core feeds every Aqueduct outcome service from one validated data layer. No duplicated sensing, no conflicting readings between modules, no data siloes by design. When EnergySmart verifies a saving, it is verifying against the same baseline that aQ Core established in week one.
AI-Native Platform
We did not build a smart building platform and add AI to it. AI is the foundation. Just like Tesla built an electric autonomous car from scratch not a gas car with batteries added.
Forget manually pulling data, building queries, or configuring dashboards. With aQ Core, you simply tell the system what you need in plain language. The AI understands your intent, retrieves the right data, builds the visualisation, and delivers the insight instantly.
Navigate 12 menus → Select data sources → Configure filters → Build charts → Export → Repeat.
"Show me chiller efficiency trends for Building A vs Building B over the last 90 days." Done.
Ask questions in plain English. No query language, no training required. The AI understands facility operations context.
Describe what you want to see. The system builds the dashboard, selects the right charts, and populates live data automatically.
When something goes wrong, the AI traces the issue through the data model and explains why not just what.
Board reports, compliance documentation, tenant summaries generated on command with verified data and proper formatting.
The AI proactively surfaces optimisation opportunities before you ask based on continuous pattern analysis.
From insight to action in one step. Generate work orders, adjust setpoints, or trigger alerts directly from the AI response.
Everything the platform needs to deliver verified outcomes.
Connect to legacy BAS, modern BMS, standalone meters, IoT sensors, utility APIs, and cloud data feeds. If it produces data, Core can ingest it without requiring the customer to replace existing hardware.
Raw sensor values mean nothing without context. Core applies engineering unit conversion, asset tagging using Project Haystack and Brick Schema, data quality scoring, and temporal alignment.
Every reading is timestamped, versioned, and write-once. Configuration changes, sensor replacements, and calibration events are logged automatically for IPMVP reporting and regulatory compliance.
Data quality is monitored, not assumed. aQ Core actively tracks the health of every connected sensor and gateway. When a sensor drifts, flatlines, or drops comms, Core flags it before the anomaly propagates.
