Emerging Technologies
Generative AI for Workplace Design
Generative AI can rapidly create optimized workplace layouts, simulating various scenarios for space utilization, acoustics, and comfort based on data, significantly reducing design time and costs.
Digital Twins with Predictive Analytics
Advanced digital twins of buildings, integrated with real-time sensor data and AI, can predict equipment failures, optimize energy consumption, and anticipate occupancy patterns for proactive facility management.
Edge Computing for Real-time Occupancy Data
Deploying edge computing devices at the network's periphery allows for immediate processing of vast amounts of sensor data, enabling real-time occupancy monitoring and instantaneous environmental adjustments without cloud latency.
Impactful Policy Frameworks
Building Energy Efficiency Standards (Title 24, Part 6) - California
The California Building Energy Efficiency Standards (Title 24, Part 6), updated in 2022, mandate increasingly stringent energy performance requirements for new and renovated commercial buildings, including prescriptive and performance-based compliance paths.
This policy drives demand for Outer Labs' smart building solutions focused on energy optimization, data analytics, and intelligent HVAC controls to help clients meet compliance and reduce operational costs.
Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Standards for Accessible Design - 2010
The ADA Standards for Accessible Design (2010) are federal regulations establishing minimum requirements for newly designed and constructed or altered State and local government facilities, public accommodations, and commercial facilities to be readily accessible to and usable by individuals with disabilities.
While not new, ongoing enforcement and interpretation of ADA standards, particularly regarding digital interfaces and smart workplace features, necessitate Outer Labs to ensure their custom solutions are universally accessible, broadening their addressable market.
Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) Guidelines
OSHA provides non-mandatory guidelines for Indoor Air Quality (IAQ), emphasizing ventilation, temperature, humidity, and contaminant control to ensure a safe and healthy work environment, with increasing focus post-pandemic.
These guidelines, especially with heightened post-pandemic awareness, increase client demand for Outer Labs' solutions that monitor and manage environmental factors like air quality and temperature, contributing to employee well-being and reducing health-related complaints.
