R3X
(pronounced "R cubed X") is in the business of helping companies
become or remain competitive in a business environment that has radically
changed over the last few years. It provides an infrastructure (called
the Unified Business Operating System or (UBOS™)
which allows business owners and operators to focus on the core elements of
their enterprise without being constantly distracted and sidetracked by
ancillary (but necessary) aspects of its operation. This provides a
significant competitive advantage. The infrastructure is composed of the
following elements:
n TheR3X
Generic Value Creation Architecture™ (R3XGVCA), which allows the
integration of all business operating systems and value creation activities
n A Decision
Accounting Operating System (DAOS™), which provides a path to:
1) Optimizing
the Integration of Competitive Strategy, Operating Infrastructure, and Market
Positioning
2) Driving
the Programmatic Achievement of Competitive Advantage for the Purpose of
Delivering Superior Value to Customers and Superior Returns to Shareholders
3) Attenuating
the Personal Liability Associated with Fiduciary Risk for Directors and
Officers
4) Reengineering
the Control Mechanisms which Regulate the Flow of Capital from Institutional
Investors to Commercial Enterprises
5) Fulfilling
the “Responsibilities of Ownership” and Delivering Safe Harbor for those
Institutional Investors that fund a business
n A
Management Utilities Portfolio (Value Bundles of Managed Services), which
allows a business to effectively use UBOS™. These bundles include:
1) The
Technology Bundle, which establishes an infrastructure and provides the tools
that allow a business to effectively use the new technologies and
communications possibilities of the Information age.
2) The DAOS™
Power Bundle, which installs a fully integrated decision control system in a
business
3) The Safety
Net Bundle, which provides Business Failure Insurance, as well as expanded
Directors and Officers Liability Insurance
4)
The Financial Bundle, which provides
funding and financial stability for businesses

Smart Buildings
Data, Voice and Video Communications Systems
What
are Smart Buildings
Smart Buildings are user
friendly, easily accessible to the teleworker/telecommuter and business owners
alike. They are secure for the
individual to work in at all hours.
They are wired for the most efficient uses of technology. A Smart Building allows anyone to setup
and start doing business almost instantly.
Background
The high
technology concept of smart buildings was introduced in the United States in the
early 1980s. Although no formal
definition exists, smart buildings use electronics extensively, are
high-technology related and can be addressed by looking at three (3) operating
concepts:
·
energy efficiency
·
lifesafety systems
·
data, voice and video communications systems
The
ultimate goal is to integrate the three operating areas into one single
computerized system with all of the hardware and software furnished by a single
supplier or partner that would use compatible resources and equipment. Managers of “smart” buildings will need
tremendous computer capabilities, and the emphasis will shift from managing
physical space to managing data space.
Energy Efficiency
Intelligence
with respect to energy in a smart building consists of the reduction of energy
use to the bare minimum.
Computerized systems are used extensively. Such systems go by many names: Building Automation System (BAS),
Energy Management System (EMS), Energy Management and Control System (EMCS),
Central Control and Monitoring System (CCMS) and Facilities Management System
(FMS). These systems would allow,
among other things:
·
·
Programmed start/stop
·
·
Duty cycling & automatic reset
·
·
Automatic demand control
·
·
Adaptive control
·
·
Heat & cold optimization
·
·
Optimal energy sourcing
Lifesafety Systems
Intelligence
with respect to lifesafety in a smart building involves the use of high
technology to maximize the performance of security systems while minimizing
costs. This can consist of such
things as:
·
·
Closed-circuit television
·
·
Card access control
·
·
Smoke detection
·
·
Intrusion alarms
·
·
Emergency control of elevators, HVAC systems, doors
·
·
Universal Power Supply Systems (UPS)
Data, Voice and Video Communications
Systems
Intelligence
with respect to data, voice and video communications in a smart building
involves offering tenants many sophisticated data and telecom services and
features at a considerably reduced cost.
Some of these features are:
·
·
High speed Internet access
·
·
Local and long distance services
·
·
PBX telephone system
·
·
Cablevision
·
·
Videotext
·
·
Electronic mail
·
·
Direct satellite communications access.
·
·
Enlarged riser capacities.
·
·
Multiple-vendor, high-speed Internet access.
·
·
Videoconferencing facilities.
·
·
Emergency electrical back up.
·
·
Multiple-vendor telecommunications access.
·
·
Disaster back-up and recovery access
Smart
Buildings for Business
Today’s
businesses thrive on information.
The tools used to access, store, retrieve, manipulate, and communicate
information are critical assets – no matter whether the tenant is a doctor,
lawyer, merchant, manufacturer, Internet service provider, etc.
To building
managers, providing tenants with an infostructure
offers the ultimate marketing opportunity. Technology will attract and retain tenants.
In the
past, buildings have been fortresses, shelters, and addresses on a map. Today, buildings are gateways to a
larger, electronic world. Tenants
want no-fuss, no-muss access for their technological tools. From the tenant’s perspective,
connecting a business to the Internet, for example, should be as plug-and-play
as turning on the lights, talking on the phone, and breathing the air.
Because of
the cost of making a building “intelligent”, strategies that should be
considered are:
1.
Becoming a Virtual Internet
Service Provider (VISP). [see the CVSI VBP Program]
2. Partnering
with a third-party service provider such as CVSI. At no cost to building owners, CVSI can install systems such
as fiber-optic backbones, in exchange for exclusive rights to provide service
to tenants. Profits can be split
between the building owners and CVSI.
For example, CVSI will wire buildings
for high-speed voice and data.
Building owner can receive a percentage of telecommunications revenues,
and gain more control over risers and conduits. Tenants can plug into high-speed and direct Internet access,
and save on local and long-distance telephone costs.
CVSI’s will install a black box in a
building’s equipment closet to provide high-speed Internet access. Building owners and tenants can then be
billed on usage, are supported by CVSI’s 24-hour technical staff, and incur no
hardware costs for the system.
Some of the
features that can be provided in a “smart building” are:
·
·
On Site Business and Message Centers
·
·
Centralized Data & Word Processing
·
·
Teleconferencing and Video conferencing
·
·
Electronic Mail
·
·
Computer Services
·
·
Information Services
·
·
Direct satellite communications access
·
·
Enlarged riser capacities
·
·
Multiple-vendor, high-speed Internet access
·
·
Videoconferencing facilities
·
·
Emergency electrical back-up
·
·
Multiple-vendor telecommunications access
·
·
High Speed Internet Access
·
·
Technical Support
·
·
Cable and Satellite Television
·
·
Provide infrastructure and support for
Teleworkers/Telecommuters
Conclusion
The smart building is clearly the building of the future. With proper marketing, such buildings will lease up more easily, and at higher rates by virtue of the services offered.
