True sustainable asset value is underpinned by a connected, human-centric strategy. Therefore, the ability to put people measuring software into smart buildings is key to taking the next steps towards creating a better more comfortable workplace environment. Coupled with the analysis needed to handle the high volumes of additional data and respond accordingly, is a great challenge for the industry. In this session we will look at:
- Developing an empathetic response in buildings not seen before
- Examples of the concepts and technology that could get us there

1:20 pm - 2:00 pm Intelligent Building Security: Guidance in Developing & Assigning Mitigation Strategies
This non-technical presentation showcases a 2018 ASIS Foundation and Builder Owners and Managers Association (BOMA) funded research project. The project investigated IB vulnerabilities and surveyed both security and facility professionals in their understanding and practice. Findings indicated a limited understanding of IB risks and importantly, suitability in resulting mitigation strategies. Therefore, the project developed an IB Security Guidance document, to inform professionals in mitigating the many and changing IB vulnerabilities, threats and risks. Guidance commences with designating the impact that the IB may have if a realised event to a list of security questions that considers management, security risk, personnel, physical and cybersecurity measures, incident and continuity planning, and maintenance practice At the end of this session participants will be able to:
- Gain an understanding of the threats, risks and vulnerabilities to buildings and its organisation that Intelligent Buildings can pose; and
- Provide a non-technical strategy to mitigate the threats and risks of Intelligent Building through an easy to apply industry published guidance document.
2:00 pm - 2:40 pm CASE STUDY: Securing Mirvac’s Asset Portfolio & Clients from Cyber Threats
As technology binds itself into the operational functions of a building, the risks and challenges of cyber security grow exponentially. Understanding the risks, and the areas to apply focus is critical. This presentation will highlight how Mirvac created a set of guidelines, policies and standard approach from the design phase throughout the building, through commissioning and then into the future:
- Identifying the risks and challenges... and filtering out the noise.
- Identifying strategies and solutions to stay secure
- Designing cybersecurity into buildings
2:40 pm - 3:10 pm AFTERNOON TEA & NETWORKING
3:10 pm - 3:50 pm CASE STUDY: Case Study: 100 Mount Street, North Sydney - A Smart Building Journey
Dexus made a commitment to Smart Buildings in 2017 when the 100 Mount Street development was already mid-way, so how did Dexus define a Smart Building and retrofit that to an existing development project? In this talk we will look at what the challenges were and how were they dealt with, plus provide an overview of the 20+ ‘smart’ technologies that ended up in the building, with a deeper dive into:
- Connectivity: DAS (cellular), ICN (IP network), IoT Network
- New generation wired and wireless sensors
- Integration and Data Analytics
- Digital Twin (Dexus style)
- Customer facing solutions
- What will the next project look like?
3:50 pm - 4:30 pm The Agile Workplace Through the Lens of Lifelong Learning
As automation & artificial intelligence take over, a lot of the process & analysis-oriented work, and continuous learning will become part of our everyday engagement in the workplace. Automation & AI, for example, will require a greater focus on our critical thinking, problem solving, and interpersonal skills, and we will need to learn, and relearn the changing context against which these skills are applied. As the work landscape of the future is unknown, what we do know about it is that this increasing demand for life-long learning and an ever-increasing entrepreneurial approach to work will influence how our workplaces of the future are designed. Through investigating this intersection of education and industry, we will explore the modern agile workplace through the lens of lifelong learning:
- Exploring the significance of the trend of the overlap between education & commercial workplace design
- Using the experience of previous agile models to design increasingly intuitive & creative spaces
- Fostering greater knowledge of agile models to improve commercial workplace designs of the future
