3. OUR EXPERTISE
CONSULTING & PLANNING
DESIGNING ENGINEERING
FACILITY OPERATIONS
CONSULTING & PLANNING:
We know the potential of an exercise that’s sustainable and
how it’s all worth the collective effort. Our approach is to
systematically adapt our strategy to the lifecycle of the
building and propose a cost-effective, energy-efficient
design for development. This means you benefit not only
in the short term but also in the long run because we leave
you with a property that has lowered energy costs, enjoys
a higher value and a clear differentiation in public image
from other buildings.
Our team includes: ASHREA professionals, FIEE UK energy
consultants, IWA professionals, and specialists in building
automation. Together, we first create models and lighting
photo-metrics which we showcase to you the client, to help
you select MEP and ELV design options. We have found that
building in this transparency into our methods right from
the planning stage means that you are more aware,
informed and know as much about your building as we do.
DESIGNING:
In the ecosystem of a building, MEP systems play the role
of a central nervous system.
We understand how critical the delivery of a detailed and
well-thought out MEP system therefore is. The design, coor-
dination and execution of an efficient MEP system presents
an unusual challenge. These systems are advanced,
complex, often construction is fragmented and often these
problems expose both a lack of technology and the
proactive thinking for applying technology to the context of
your business and its technical conditions. In some cases
there is even distributed knowledge concerning the differ-
ent types of systems. And tailoring existing software to meet
the special needs of MEP coordination becomes a painpoint.
We are experienced across all phases of the MEP systems
design - from due diligence, code issues, architectural needs,
coordination, construction, commissioning, operation,
maintenance, to even retrofiting for new uses.
And in keeping with the more modern definitions of MEP
systems we address both traditional as well as modern MEP
systems that include - HVAC, electrical, building manage-
ment systems, security , and even the telephone/datacom
systems.
ENGINEERING:
How can our MEP engineering services save and optimize
energy usage in HVAC, lighting and ELV systems?

4. PERSPECTIVE
“prospect - vista - outlook – view”
N’VIRON1 believes in a viewpoint. We believe that our properties need to be more than brick and mortar. They need to be
sustainable landscapes. Green roofs with personalities that transform the community they belong to. Designs that’s experi-
ential, intelligent. Delivery that’s centred around your needs. We’re constantly answering questions like - why does it make
business sense to bring sustainability at the heart of your energy efficiency efforts?
As we evolve our viewpoint we invite you to write in – discuss, debate and disagree with us on our perspectives on sustain-
ability and energy efficiency. Feel free to share your whitepapers, thoughts, canvases of ideas, greenfield opportunities
with us at our coordinates below and we’d love to collaborate with you to make them happen!

WHY ENERGY EFFICIENCY
We get out of bed asking ourselves this question. Buildings
are places that can become landmarks of the urbanscape–
complementing the city’s skyline and evolve to engage the
street and the neighborhood. A great building becomes a
great workplace, shopping mall, a great home which is why
it needs to be nurtured with a view on the future.
40% of the world’s energy is consumed by buildings and
21% of greenhouse emissions come from buildings. With
only one of the many tools in the armoury - Intelligent
Building Technology – energy savings to the tune of 40% can
be realized potentially. This isn’t a mere statistic. This is the
power of energy efficiency!
We work with you to optimize and leverage what you have
drastically reducing your need for capital. From design
energy efficient lighting, HVAC systems, to using low energy
materials & methods of construction & reduce transporta-
tion energy, to balancing all aspects of energy use in a build-
ing: lighting, space-conditioning and ventilation, we take
what you have and derive maximum benefits from it for
you getting the maximum bang for your buck.
5. SUCCESS STORIES
Design review and Energy Efficiency recommendations
for a large mining resource company
MELBOURNE AUSTRALIA
The project required us to work with the building designers and the client’s Facility
Management team and subsequently recommend improvements for the building’s MEP
design. The purpose was to recommend specifications for a fully integrated building to
support integrated operations and energy efficiency. The project being built in Australia
had to be designed for lower cost of operation mainly maintenance, manpower and
energy.
N’VIRON1 successfully carried out the integration tests of various equipment’s and
delivered a design which was operationally efficient; which will save the client millions
of dollars during its lifecycle.
Through this exercise, the client managed to save money on the project development
(CapEx) and were thoroughly informed about the operational costs and savings from it.
Design review for sustainable operation and operational
efficiency (energy, maintenance, manpower)
Mixed use city project
CAIRO EGYPT
We were appointed as sustainability consultants for the whole city development, where
Mechanical/ Electrical design required inputs for lowering CapEx.
We reworked the design with an integrated approach towards operational sustainability.
These were followed with simulations on the designs using eQuest and Dialux softwares
to build EE measures in the design. The exercise resulted in CapEx savings in the range of
USD 3 million for the client with operational and energy savings throughout the life of
the building.
Energy Audit for a large mall
Dubai UAE
We were appointed as energy auditors by the mall operations to reduce their high energy
bills and provide recommendations to save early deterioration of the MEP assets.
We did a detailed study of the mall MEP as built design and reported gaps leading to high
energy bills.
A comprehensive study was also carried out about the installed MEP assets which
resulted in the some startling indication of the deterioration of the equipment. A presen-
tation with complete facts and in-efficiencies were reported to the management with
rectification measures resulting in savings for the mall operator. The exercise resulted in
the reduction of energy bills by 33% annually. Recommendations were also made to
improve asset maintenance practices leading to prolonged MEP asset life.
Design review for integration and
interoperability for large corporate
Dubai UAE
We were approached by the building operator to review the Facility management
processes and practices followed within the facility to reduce its operating costs
(Maintenance, Energy).
A detailed onsite exercise was carried out to identify the gaps in the MEP design, energy
loss, maintenance practices and inventory management. Complete list of problems were
presented to the client with solutions and ROI on each solution.
On successful implementation of the recommendation, the client managed a reduction in
the building operating costs by 22% annually.
