See how we Integrated Tibrobyggen's existing SCADA platform Arrigo with Edge – the first integration of its kind.

Tibrobyggen, a public housing company in Tibro, recently connected their existing overall system (SCADA) with our AI service, Edge. We at Kiona had the pleasure of working alongside them and the integration partner, Systeminstallation i Varberg AB (SI), to make it happen. The focus of this project? Melding together Tibrobyggen's existing SCADA platform, Arrigo, with Edge —the first integration of its kind.

Quality data is crucial. When we standardize the description of various elements in a building, it becomes easier to integrate new tech.

Creating standard ways to describe different elements within a building and their relationships with each other makes integrating new technologies more accessible. And this is more valuable than ever before.
