At Bold Engineering, we offer modern building automation engineering in the Greater Toronto Area to enhance comfort, energy performance, and control. We design and commission systems that connect your HVAC, lighting, access, and metering so your building runs smarter every day.
What Is a Building Automation System?
Building automation systems connect and control mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems through sensors, controllers, and software. This central management platform monitors temperature, lighting, airflow, and energy use in real time. It lets you adjust settings remotely, schedule routines, and respond fast to alerts. With analytics dashboards, you can spot trends, identify inefficiencies, and optimize your building over its lifecycle.

How Our Building Automation Engineering Helps You
We start with a site walkthrough, system assessment, and goal‑setting session to understand your operation. If you’re upgrading HVAC controls, we identify compatible controllers, sequences, and points. For full BAS projects, we develop architecture plans, network diagrams, and software specifications. Every project includes functional testing and occupant training so your staff can manage schedules and alarms. We collaborate with trades during installation to integrate devices and controllers cleanly and efficiently.
Benefits of Smart Automation
With an advanced BAS in place, you’ll gain control over your building performance and costs. You’ll see improved energy efficiency, smoother operations, and enhanced occupant comfort. Preventive maintenance becomes easier, and your system adapts as needs evolve:
- Save energy through optimized scheduling and setback strategies
- Reduce occupant complaints by responding to real-time conditions
- Extend equipment life through pressure and runtime monitoring
- Lower operation and maintenance costs with analytics and alarms
- Ready path for future upgrades like renewable integration or tenant meters
Applications We Serve
Our building automation engineering services can be applied to a variety of applications, including:
- New construction: system design to support LEED, TGS, and utility incentive programs
- Existing buildings: retro‑commissioning to boost performance or troubleshooting persistent issues
- Tenant re‑fit: isolate zones and schedules to give tenants control while maintaining landlord oversight
- Special environments: labs, clinics, data centers with tight temperature and airflow standards
A Smooth & Streamlined Process
Our process covers a range of different elements that include:
- Discovery & goals: walkthrough and system assessment
- Design & specs: sequence development, hardware and software selection

Frequently Asked Questions
If you have questions about our building automation systems, we’ve got answers. Check out some commonly asked questions below and reach out if you don’t see yours on the list.
A BAS connects and manages building systems, such as HVAC, lighting, access, and metering, through sensors, controllers, and automation software. It provides centralized control so you can monitor, adjust, and optimize systems in real time for comfort and energy savings.
Most buildings see 10–30% savings through optimized schedules, demand control, and real-time adjustments. Savings depend on building type and system condition, but even small changes like lighting schedules and temperature setbacks can add up quickly.
Yes, we can upgrade older controls by adding gateways, interfaces, and new sequences to improve performance. This approach allows you to extend the life of your current equipment while gaining advanced monitoring and control.
Offices, schools, condos, labs, retail spaces, data centers, and mixed-use properties all benefit from advanced control. Any facility with significant HVAC, lighting, or energy use can improve comfort and efficiency with a BAS.
Not always. Some systems run on cloud platforms, while others use edge controllers or local servers depending on scale. We review your building needs and IT preferences to recommend the best platform for your site.
Small retrofits may take 4–6 weeks. Larger or new construction projects typically span 8–12 weeks from assessment to commissioning. We provide a clear timeline during planning so you know what to expect.
Yes, our process includes user training sessions and documentation so your team can operate and adjust the system confidently. We also offer follow-up support to help you fine-tune settings and address questions.
Absolutely. We can connect CO₂ sensors, occupancy, water meters, outdoor weather stations, and more. These inputs allow your building to adjust ventilation, lighting, and energy use based on real conditions.
Yes, these systems can be programmed to manage solar PV, thermal storage, EV chargers, and energy analytics. This flexibility helps you prepare your building for future energy goals while managing peak loads and costs.
