You can’t tell they’re from Adam

BT Engineers seconded to help more businesses cut their carbon footprint

ADAM have brokered a secondment deal with BT to enable them to expand into new markets. This initial partnership agreement will see a group of BT engineers seconded to ADAM, allowing a new tranche of companies to access ADAM’s revolutionary web-enabled, Wireless Building Energy Management Systems.

As part of the deal, BT engineers have been retrained and will install ADAM’s SMARTbuilding systems. The agreement will then be extended and expanded to include a wider pool of BT engineers, thus enabling ADAM to further accelerate its national roll-out programme. The move follows a significant increase in demand driven by the need to achieve energy savings and lower the carbon footprint.

Simon Gamble, Finance Director, Field Engineering, BT Operate, said: “In the current economic climate this is a commercially practical and innovative approach.’

‘It means our engineers are able to increase their skills base and enables more companies to access cutting edge technology that will allow them to reduce their carbon footprint, lower energy consumption and cut costs.”

“We’re already seeing retailers looking to sweat their existing assets as far as possible and this is sparking plenty of demand for IT projects with quick payback. Where bottom line improvement can be demonstrated, retailers are more than willing to embrace new technology.”

Steve Dillon, managing director of ADAM, added: “This is a win-win-win situation. It allows us to fully capitalise on the record order book which we have this year and to accelerate the installation of this leading edge technology to help more companies to save money by significantly reducing their energy use and, most importantly, helping the environment.”
