A proof that persistent IDs, shared data, and owner governance can let multiple teams build without vendor lock-in. The first building was the real PAE

Consulting engineers writing BAS specifications in 2026 are increasingly being asked by IT departments to justify their network design in security terms – TLS, PKI, segmentation, monitoring, audit logging, and Zero Trust architectures. Integrators deploying BACnet/SC are discovering that the protocol solves some problems, but also introduces new operational questions around hubs, certificates, and network architecture.
The new Secured by Cimetrics™ BACnet Network Design Guide v1.0 was written for exactly those conversations.

User Interface (UI) and User Experience (UX) are frequently undervalued within the building automation system (BAS) sector. However, QA Graphics is observing a notable shift
