Crown Hotels<\/a> operates one of the most prestigious precincts in the southern hemisphere, encompassing three premium Melbourne hotels<\/strong>: Crown Towers, Crown Metropol, and Crown Promenade. Combined, they house over 1,600 rooms<\/strong>, luxury amenities, and round-the-clock operations.<\/p>

Since 2015<\/strong>, Crown has partnered with Bueno to bring building analytics to the forefront of its facility operations. The goal: use data to safeguard comfort, improve energy efficiency, and enhance uptime across HVAC, vertical transport, and room infrastructure\u2014without compromising guest experience.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Operating premium hotels requires uninterrupted comfort and availability<\/strong>. HVAC systems often run 24\/7, leaving minimal margin for error in control settings or equipment downtime. Similarly, vertical transport systems<\/strong> must remain fully functional\u2014any service interruption could severely impact customer experience.<\/p>

Crown\u2019s commitment to data-driven facility management<\/strong> led to the development of new analytics and reporting processes to maintain room availability<\/strong>, eliminate unnecessary scheduled maintenance, and detect early signs of system failure.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Through its platform, Bueno continuously monitors HVAC and vertical transport performance, surfacing insights that would otherwise remain hidden. Crown\u2019s on-site and FM teams use this data to guide proactive maintenance and prevent disruption.<\/p>

Examples of optimization strategies include:<\/p>

  • HVAC Efficiency:<\/strong> Identifying low-load chillers stuck in 24\/7 operation, fixed-speed fans, and boilers maintaining elevated supply temperatures\u2014preventing unnecessary energy waste and wear.<\/p><\/li>

  • Comfort Monitoring:<\/strong> Detecting failing valves, flatlined sensors, starved coils, and CO\u2082\/temperature fluctuations that impact guest experience.<\/p><\/li>

  • Room Availability:<\/strong> Custom analytics were developed to track guest room air conditioning units that weren\u2019t achieving setpoints, allowing preemptive maintenance\u2014eliminating outdated scheduled checks<\/strong>.<\/p><\/li>

  • Lift Performance:<\/strong> Bueno\u2019s integration tracks over 10 fault categories, including entrapment indicators and uneven wear, enabling targeted servicing and deeper equipment insight.<\/p><\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
