summary

Leopard Controls secured the project for the BMS and DDC upgrade at The Atrium, a 9-storey office tower in Perth’s CBD with 19,300 square meters of net lettable area. The building features a ground-level retail and commercial hub, 8 storeys of A-grade office space, and an indoor sports arena, along with a stunning atrium filled with natural light, gardens, and waterfalls. Originally completed in 1982 and refurbished in 2002, The Atrium is undergoing further upgrades, with a 5-star NABERS energy rating prior to the current works. Leopard Controls’ new BMS and HVAC DDC solution will integrate with the building’s existing network, offering open architecture for future systems and real-time data analytics. The Niagara-based solution ensures flexibility and multi-vendor support.
