MODERN TECHNOLOGIES

Al Sheraa will provide an ideal working environment and well-being for its users. The building’s design maximises the flexibility of its work environment, by being easily and efficiently customisable, demonstrating innovation, and enhancing cooperation and productivity amongst staff and visitors.

The building’s design creates an exceptional experience for building users. The integration of all smart systems allows for data input attainment of energy generation, overall system consumption, the building’s environmental conditions, and user behaviour. Based on this information, the data will support the energy-focused building management system, provide reports for facilities management on individual users’ energy profiles, and providing broadcast service.
