The 2009 Australian building management controls market is to see a drastic slow down from a double digit growth period from 2004 to 2008 to stagnant growth largely owing to a weak construction market. Nevertheless opportunities still exist as the Australian Government is committed to Green House Gas (GHG) reduction in compliance with the Kyoto Protocol. Buildings represent a substantial proportion of GHG emission. Building controls are vital in achieving energy efficiency through measuring and controlling.

This briefing will look at market trends, market sizing, challenges, and opportunities in the Australian building management controls market. We will also provide an update of related and upcoming research and provide an opportunity for a question and answer session with the analyst.

Industry Analyst, Industrial Practice of Frost & Sullivan, Sarah Wang, observes, "Interest in energy savings has percolated down from government agencies to the business sector. Customers are displaying a reluctance to invest in any control system upgrade that entails a payback period longer than three to five years."

This briefing will benefit building control system suppliers, system integrators, and facility managers as this briefing will discuss the major obstacles, opportunities and the implications of effective building controls applications for facility managers.

Join us as Sarah shares some invaluable insights on the economic impact on the Building Management Controls market in Australia.
