A smart building is only as smart as its network
Climate, lighting, access and sensors only work together on a reliable digital foundation. The IT-Label makes that foundation visible.
The network is the nervous system
A smart building is not a collection of separate systems, but a whole in which installations, users and data communicate with each other. Almost every smart system sends or receives data. If the network fails, the smartness fails with it.
With AI and IoT, that dependency only grows. That is why the IT-Label looks not only at the smart systems themselves, but also at the digital foundation beneath them.
What the IT-Label assesses
Smart Building facilities
Climate installations, access control, camera security, visitor registration, booking systems and building management.
More information →Integration
Do the systems work together, or are they separate islands?
More information →The infrastructure beneath
Cabling, wifi, technical rooms and backup connections.
More information →Security
Are building systems separated from the users' network?
More information →Smart is not the same as usable
The Smart Readiness Indicator (SRI) measures how smart a building can be. The IT-Label shows what the building offers its users digitally. They do not replace each other, they complement each other.
Frequently asked questions
How smart is your building really?
A Certified Partner assesses the smart systems and the digital foundation beneath them.

Smart Building technology
Climate control, access control and booking systems don't make a building smart on their own. Integration does, and that's what the IT-Label assesses.
The methodology
An independent audit assesses both the physical infrastructure and actual performance, using one fixed method for every partner.
Sustainability and the IT-Label
Saving energy starts with insulation and installations. The next step is measuring and controlling, and that requires a good digital foundation.
IT-Label certification
The official IT-Label audit: physical infrastructure and actual performance, translated into a label from IT5 to IT1+. Valid for two years.
