Product Info Description
OpDez Architecture’s Digital Twin + Analytics offering delivers a structured, operationally usable digital representation of your building systems, spaces, assets, and live telemetry, so owners and operators can move from disconnected BAS screens and spreadsheets to a single, governed operational picture. The service connects design intent, asset records, and real time OT data into a unified model that supports portfolio wide visibility, faster troubleshooting, and evidence based operational decisions. 
 
The core of the deliverable is a clean semantic layer that makes building data consistent, portable, and analytics-ready across vendors and platforms. OpDez uses open, industry-recognized approaches for building information exchange and metadata modeling, enabling repeatable onboarding of new sites, reduced integration friction, and long-term maintainability. 
 
Digital Twin + Analytics is designed for NexGen Smart Buildings, retrofits, and multi-site portfolios where operational reliability, lifecycle governance, and measurable performance outcomes depend on trusted data and clear operational workflows. 
 
Key Inclusions
