The École normale supérieure Paris-Saclay implemented ICONICS automation software to manage technical operations across its new Gif-sur-Yvette campus. Working with integrator EQUANS Digital, the school deployed HMI/SCADA, a high-speed data historian, and thin-client visualization to monitor HVAC, energy, and building systems from a single control center. The solution improved real-time visibility, enabled proactive maintenance scheduling, and delivered automated alerts that reduced downtime and improved energy efficiency.

Key takeaways

Centralized monitoring and control of eight buildings from one operations center

Real-time data capture improves operational intelligence and decision making

Proactive maintenance scheduling extends asset life and reduces energy use

Automated anomaly alerts cut response time and minimize downtime

Open architecture supports continuous system improvement and expansion
