BuildingConnect is designed to make one part of a commercial building much simpler: getting people online. Instead of every tenant setting up their own internet, the connectivity is already in place across the building. That means quicker move-ins, fewer delays, and a much simpler experience for building teams and occupiers alike.
How BuildingConnect works
Connectivity and digital infrastructure that’s already in place so buildings work better for everyone from day one
How the service works
The service is installed once at building level and then used again and again as tenants move in, expand, or change their space. Connectivity becomes something that is already available, not something each occupier has to organise for themselves.
In simple terms, the building has its own shared connectivity setup in place, ready to support different spaces and users as needed.
What makes up the service
BuildingConnect has three main parts:
Internet connection: a high-capacity, reliable connection that serves the whole building.
Building network: the internal wiring and Wi-Fi that deliver connectivity into each space and across shared areas.
Management portal: a simple online tool that gives visibility and control over what is live in the building.
How it is installed and rolled out
The service is set up across the building as a one-off project, rather than being installed separately for each tenant.
This includes bringing a high-quality internet connection into the building and distributing it throughout each floor, so every space can be connected when needed.
Once this is in place, tenants can be connected quickly without further construction work, site visits, or long lead times.
How it is managed day to day
The whole setup is managed as one system, rather than a mix of different providers and contracts.
Building teams can see what is in place and how it is being used through a simple portal, making it easier to stay on top of connectivity without chasing multiple parties.
How support works
There is one team responsible for supporting the service. This removes the need to coordinate between different providers and makes it easier to get issues resolved quickly.
Works across every type of space
Because the same setup supports the whole building, it works across different types of space without needing to be redesigned each time:
- Offices: reliable, secure connectivity for day-to-day work
- Flexible workspace: quick setup for desks, suites and changing layouts
- Meeting rooms: stable connections for video calls and collaboration tools
- Shared spaces: consistent Wi-Fi in lounges, reception areas, and breakout spaces
- Retail and amenities: support for payments, guest Wi-Fi, and operations
This makes it easier to adapt the building over time without needing to revisit the connectivity each time something changes.
Why this approach works better
- For landlords and owners: fewer delays during leasing and a building that is easier to explain and market.
- For managing agents: less coordination, fewer suppliers, and a clearer view of what is happening in the building.
- For flexible workspace operators: quicker turn-up of spaces and a consistent experience for members.
- For tenants: fast, simple onboarding and reliable day-to-day connectivity.
