Abstract: A system includes a system configuration tool configured to provide a plan for installation of a building management system (BMS), a commissioning wizard configured to commission devices and equipment of the BMS as installed at a building, a performance verification tool configured to run a scan of the BMS and collected combined commissioning data by combining a result of the scan with the plant from the system configuration tool and commissioning information from the commissioning wizard, an auto-configurator configured to building a digital twin of the BMS using the combined commissioning data, and an enterprise manager configured to alter operations of the equipment of the BMS in affecting a variable state or condition of the building using a smart building feature reliant on the digital twin.

Abstract: A method includes running a scan configured to determine available resources of a building management system, determining a difference between the available resources and requirements of a smart building feature, determining one or more updates to the building management system expected to eliminate the difference, and implementing the one or more updates.
