Energy Management

Energy management is the monitoring of energy use and the identification of areas where energy can be saved, creating a blueprint for an efficient energy management solution. One of the ways to monitor your energy usage is by using energy management software.

aM&T (automatic Monitoring and Targeting) is the most effective way of discovering and analysing energy consumption and waste. aM&T is essential, as it provides you with the necessary data now required for adhering to carbon legislation such as CRC EES, CCA, EU ETS.

aM&T with RUMM consists of three components:

  • a sub-metering system
  • automatic collection of data from the meters at a pre agreed timeframe (RUMM Pulse)
  • analysis of the data in order to identify consumption, costs and savings (IBASS)

Will The 2012 Olympics Effect Our Broadband?

London is expecting millions of visitors during the period of the 2012 Olympic Games and that could potentially put an awful amount of strain on our UK networks.  This could cause serious congestion resulting in your network slowing down, or, in the extreme, crashing your office network.

BE Wholesale said 2012 will be “the year data gets serious.”  Knowall is a BE Wholesale partner and BE Wholesale will be making the necessary preparations to ensure a successful 2012.

 

Knowall IT has always recommended a secondary ADSL line to add redundancy and there is no better time than now to implement a secondary line with a different ISP if you haven’t done so already.  Knowall IT offers a Managed Broadband service with prioritised traffic and we can offer this service through BE Wholesale or Tiscalli. Please contact us on 020 7471 3270 or sales@knowall.net for more information or for any IT support.

Commercial Architects recent work

DBLO have commercial architects who offer office refurbishment, interiors and furniture design, reception area construction and more.  A recent client: Spotlight Casting Directories.

The commercial architects did the following:

The first floor was designed to create three large, purpose-built casting studios, with an associated ‘green-room’ for studio users, an extensive waiting area & reception space.  All the elements of the space were designed by DBLO associates including the reception desk, furniture & internet access wall.  When it came to the third floor, the existing cellular offices was reconfigured to appear as open plan while accommodating three different departments, with a centralised print & graphics zone.

BT Power Failure And Why You Should Have A Failover Line

A power failure yesterday at one of BT’s major exchanges was causing huge ADSL issues all over the UK for the most part of the day. As we all know, businesses rely on the internet, without the internet your business will be unable to operate and this can have many negative impacts depending on the length of the down time.

 

At Knowall IT we recommend to our clients that they have a failover line with a different ISP, so in the above instance, when the BT line goes down, it will failover to the secondary line. This is an automated process that is done by the firewall so you will not even notice the internet going down.

Knowall IT offers a managed firewall service where you can rent the equipment from us and we will fully manage and support the firewall. Knowall can also offer business grade broadband solutions – Click Here
