Siemens Building Technologies Division has won the European Building Technologies Company of the Year Award 2014.
Awarded by consultancy firm Frost & Sullivan the accolade recognises the German giant’s achievements across a range of building management disciplines – from fire safety to energy management – and a variety of verticals, including critical infrastructure, transport, utilities, financial, commercial and public sector.
Explaining its decision Frost & Sullivan said Siemens offers best-practice building efficiency services such as building performance assessment, analysis and benchmarking to achieve the highest return on investment for building operators.
Through its enterprise-wide platforms, it said, Siemens helps multinational companies achieve sustainability goals against a backdrop of rising energy costs and stringent regulation.

Siemens was also praised for on-site and remote monitoring of building automation systems, as well as energy and sustainability management.
Frost & Sullivan also cited the company’s strong track record of developing and launching groundbreaking innovations and gaining market share in adverse trading conditions.
Siemens advanced control platforms integrate a range of disciplines like heating, ventilation and air conditioning, security, fire safety, lighting, shading and energy management. In the age of smart buildings all such disciplines can now be controlled from a central location.
The award was presented to Siemens in Frankfurt in December.
