NDA Consulting Ltd
Decades of industry experience
NDA Consulting work with all the major BEMS systems manufacturers and suppliers and have extensive in-house knowledge, enabling us to provide ‘best of breed’ unbiased and impartial advice for our clients.
As a specialist BEMS and building services systems consultancy practice we have high level contacts within the controls industry and often unique access to specialist technical and commercial information and advice to the benefit of our clients.
For example, we were one of the first consultancies to be granted an official licence to utilise the Trend Control Systems SET (System Engineering Tool) software enabling us to more effectively understand existing system configuration and assist in the preparation of our condition and feasibility reports and specifications as well as providing technical appraisals of newly engineered systems. In addition, we have seen a shift towards the use of the (Tridium) Niagara framework for smart buildings applications, and now employ Tridium N4 TCP trained consultants to further enhance the services provided for our clients.
