We’re excited to bring you a panel discussion that showcases the cutting-edge practices and innovative solutions shaping the future of facility management, sustainability, and security in some of the most sensitive sectors. Our expert panelists will dive deep into their experiences, challenges, and successes in creating a safer, more efficient, and environmentally friendly future for both commercial and government facilities.
Meet Our Panelists:
Matt Smith, General Manager Integrated Services – Defence & Head of Innovation APAC at BGIS.
Matt will share insights from his work overseeing the rollout of 7,789 Hybrid Photoluminescent Exit Signs across defence facilities. This innovative solution met the strict sustainability and security requirements of the Department of Defence while offering numerous advantages:
Reduced Operational Costs: These signs have contributed to lowering the cost of maintaining emergency signage.
E-Waste Reduction: A key outcome of using hybrid photoluminescent technology is the drastic reduction in electronic waste.
Safety Improvements: By eliminating the need for working from heights, they’ve also minimized the risks associated with maintenance.
Battery-Free Signage: The added benefits of this system include reducing dependence on vulnerable Wi-Fi networks, which enhances both personal security in sensitive locations and data integrity while ensuring compliance and significant cost savings. Matt will explore how this cutting-edge approach helps organizations meet their operational, security, and sustainability goals.
Dr Matt Brandon-Toole, Sustainability Advisor, Government Facilities Management at Ventia.
With his vast experience managing hospital facilities, Matt will offer insights on integrating cost-effective, energy-efficient practices into government operations. His expertise will cover:
