“…It was discussed that external data would be useful in other companies' service development, but the sector is still missing business models, as well as vital roles in external data distribution. The empirical results are also supported by the literature, suggesting that smart home services are currently developed, designed and delivered individually rather than holistically between the industries [17]. Thus, a significant share of the opportunities provided by data, which is one of the key resources of digitalised business, might be significantly unexploited in the sector.…”

Abstract:The purpose of this paper is to explore the current state of data commercialisation and external distribution in the Finnish real estate and construction (REC) sector. We focus on how companies could more effectively benefit from digitalisation, with more holistic utilisation of data from smart buildings. We assess the current state of data utilisation and distribution using a start-up company analysis and industry workshops. According to our research, the data from smart buildings is gathered on a large scale but very seldom distributed outside company borders. The reason for this almost non-existent external data distribution is the lack of value of the external data. As a solution, we propose the Internet of Buildings framework. The framework is based on a platform ecosystem model that is complemented with data commercialisation roles. It takes into account the current data-related opportunities and challenges in the sector. Within the framework, we suggest stakeholder roles and modes of interaction that promote value creation from smart building data. The framework can be used as a starting point for developing data commercialisation and external data distribution in the sector.

“…When building new houses it is possible to incorporate SHTs custom designed from the start [25]. However, with the predominantly old housing stock in the UK and its slow renewal, there's a triple challenge: first, it is necessary to find ways to fit SHT into existing homes [3]. Then, to define which retrofit measures would be more adequate.…”
