Whether the goal is optimal comfort and convenience, LEED accreditation, or reduced energy costs, EMCOR360's effectiveness is driven by the data it collects, based on the specific needs of each facility and the expertise that drives the entire process. "Although we use advanced technology to extract energy-use data from system components, EMCOR360 is more than just software solution," stated Mr. Maclnnis.
