Four services. One goal: your project works.
Spektris focuses exclusively on UK contractors and system integrators navigating the technical complexity of smart building projects — from first specification to final commissioning.
We bring 20+ years of hands-on experience across BMS, IoT, and smart lighting — with no commercial relationship with any vendor or supplier.
See all servicesClear, buildable specs for BMS, IoT sensor networks, and smart lighting — written from the installer's perspective.
Independent platform and supplier evaluation — no vendor relationships, no agenda, just the right answer for your project.
Structured programmes that build lasting smart building capability inside your team — tailored to your current level.
Root cause diagnosis and recovery planning when smart building projects break down — protocol failures, integration issues, commissioning problems.
Professional lighting surveys using calibrated UPRTek spectral meters — measuring lux, colour temperature, CRI, flicker, and full spectral data to support retrofit decisions, WELL compliance, and energy audits.
Design and specification of digital twin architectures — from BIM integration and sensor topology through to live building models, HVAC simulation, and single-pane-of-glass visualisation platforms.
BMS & Smart Lighting integration platform consulting for Hytronik.
Hytronik engaged Spektris to provide technical and commercial consulting across their BMS integration and smart lighting platform strategy — targeting UK contractors and system integrators.
Our work covers platform positioning, BMS integration architecture, channel development through the UK SI network, and commercial documentation — grounded in deep analysis of the UK BMS market, regulatory drivers, and SI procurement dynamics.
An ongoing engagement timed to the EPBD enforcement window and growing UK demand for occupancy-based HVAC control and smart lighting integration.
Services
Every Spektris service is built for the realities of UK building services contracts — legacy infrastructure, tight programmes, mixed protocols, and clients who need results, not theory. We work across BMS design, IoT sensor integration, smart lighting controls, digital twin architecture, and light quality measurement — all vendor-neutral, all for UK contractors and system integrators.
Complete, buildable technical specifications for BMS, IoT sensor networks, and smart lighting integration. Written from the installer's perspective — clear enough to price from, detailed enough to commission from.
- BMS architecture (BACnet/IP, Modbus, Bluetooth Mesh)
- IoT sensor network layout and protocol selection
- Smart lighting integration (DALI, Bluetooth Mesh, KNX)
- Gateway and edge device specification
- Control logic and sequence of operations documentation
- Tender-ready specification packages
Independent evaluation of the full market with no commercial relationships with any supplier. Shortlisted options stress-tested against your specific project constraints, delivering a costed, defensible recommendation.
- Full market evaluation across BMS, IoT, and lighting
- Protocol compatibility and interoperability assessment
- Total cost of ownership modelling
- Supplier due diligence and technical capability review
- Procurement support and evaluation criteria
- Risk assessment and contingency planning
Structured training programmes that build lasting smart building capability inside your team. Tailored to your team's current level — from BMS fundamentals to advanced protocol integration. Delivered by Dan Bosak, who authored the Technical Partner Development Playbook adopted across Siemens' international partner network.
- BMS fundamentals — protocols, architecture, commissioning
- IoT sensor networks — deployment, configuration, integration
- Smart lighting — DALI, Bluetooth Mesh, relay control
- HVAC control logic and occupancy-based optimisation
- Regulatory context — EPBD, UK Future Buildings Standard
- IdeaLab Workshops for team problem-solving and innovation
When a smart building project has broken down — integration failures, protocol conflicts, systems that won't communicate, commissioning that won't close out — we diagnose the real cause and provide a clear, prioritised route to resolution.
- Root cause diagnosis of integration and commissioning failures
- Protocol conflict analysis and resolution
- BMS-to-field device communication troubleshooting
- Lighting control system fault analysis
- Recovery planning and remediation specification
- Client-facing technical reporting
Professional on-site lighting surveys using calibrated UPRTek spectral meters — providing objective, data-backed evidence of current lighting performance before any retrofit or control system investment. Trusted by lighting designers, FM teams, and energy consultants.
- Full spectral measurement — lux, CCT, CRI, R9, flicker (%)
- Zone-by-zone light level mapping against CIBSE standards
- Pre- and post-retrofit comparison reporting
- WELL Building Standard lighting criteria assessment
- Circadian rhythm impact assessment (melanopic EDI / EML)
- Energy audit support — watt/m² baseline for retrofit business case
- Glare analysis (UGR) and uniformity mapping
- Instrumentation: UPRTek calibrated spectral meters
Design and specification of digital twin architectures for commercial buildings — translating physical sensor networks and BMS data into live, queryable building models. From initial topology design through to HVAC simulation, fault detection, and single-pane-of-glass visualisation.
- Digital twin architecture design and technology selection
- BIM-to-digital-twin pipeline (IFC, COBie integration)
- Sensor topology and data point mapping
- HVAC thermal model design (white-box / grey-box)
- Single-pane-of-glass platform selection (IESVE, Mobius Flow, ONE)
- Fault detection and diagnostics (FDD) framework design
- Haystack / Brick Schema tagging and data modelling
- Integration with Clockworks Analytics, R8 Tech, and equivalents

About Spektris
Independent Smart Building Consultant — Vendor-Neutral BMS, IoT & Lighting Expertise
BSc Engineering Physics. 20+ years across smart building systems, IoT integration, and enterprise technology transformation in the UK and EMEA — including senior roles at Siemens Enlighted and Samsung SDS Europe.
Spektris was repositioned in 2024 from a generalist consultancy to a focused smart building and IoT specialist. The proposition is simple: independent technical expertise for UK contractors and system integrators, with no vendor agenda whatsoever.
Current advisory work includes BMS integration and smart lighting platform consulting for Hytronik — covering platform strategy, BMS integration architecture, and UK channel development.
