The HiPerWare platform, developed by BPS Group, has been enhanced with a natural language interface for working with building operations data. The new interface allows users to access the platform’s analytics via dialogue, eliminating the need to work with complex interfaces, charts, and reports.
Until now, using advanced analytics and live digital twins in building operations required a high level of technical expertise. To extract value from data, specialists needed to understand platform architecture, engineering process logic, data formats, and visualization tools. As a result, in-depth analysis remained the domain of a narrow group of experts.
The introduction of an AI-driven interface fundamentally changes this model. Users can now formulate operational queries — ranging from identifying the causes of deviations and increased energy consumption to assessing risk and evaluating the effectiveness of engineering decisions — and receive clear, understandable explanations. The AI takes over tasks that previously required hours of manual analysis, such as data extraction, correlation, identification of interdependencies, and generation of conclusions.
From Data to Dialogue
To enable this mode of interaction, a building must be represented not as a set of isolated parameters, but as a dynamic system whose behavior is continuously observed.
The HiPerWare platform addresses precisely this challenge, being based on the concept of a “live” digital twin. In this approach, high-frequency operational data are continuously collected across engineering subsystems and accumulated over time without any gaps in the data. These data streams are automatically correlated, forming a digital environment in which it becomes possible to analyze system behavior rather than individual measurements.
Such an approach enables a shift from merely recording isolated deviations and failures to understanding their root causes, system interdependencies, and potential consequences.
The natural language interface makes this level of analysis easily accessible. Users receive explanations for increased energy consumption, unstable equipment operation, or failure risks that reflect actual processes within the building, rather than a fragmented set of indicators.
As a result, in-depth analytics becomes easily accessible to engineers, facility managers, and building owners. Building operations move beyond a reactive model with issues being identified earlier and their causes becominge clearer, leading to more informed decision-making.
The natural language interface of the HiPerWare platform is available as part of the platform and can be applied to both new buildings and existing assets — without the need for a radical overhaul of engineering infrastructure.
About HiPerWare
HiPerWare is an Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) platform that digitises building operations, reducing operating costs and facilitating the transition from reactive maintenance to proactive management.
The platform continuously collects high-frequency data from building engineering systems, analyses it using artificial intelligence algorithms, and creates a live digital twin that reflects the asset’s real behaviour. HiPerWare is used in residential, commercial, and industrial real estate and helps improve efficiency, resilience, and controllability of building operations throughout the entire lifecycle.
