Case Studies
A Transformative Partnership: KIPP DC and Normal Software
KIPP DC, a network of public charter schools with eight campuses and twenty buildings, set out to modernize facilities management and overcome the challenges of fragmented building automation systems and limited control over their data. Through a trusted master systems integrator, KIPP DC discovered Normal Software and our Normal Framework (NF) platform, which offered an independent data layer (IDL) to streamline operations and enable smarter, data-driven decisions. Launched in 2020, this partnership has been instrumental in transforming how KIPP DC manages over one million square feet of educational space, creating healthier and more efficient environments for students and staff.
A Collaborative Journey: Edo & Normal Software
In 2020, Edo, a company focused on innovative building connectivity solutions, faced a decision on whether to develop their two-way building control functionality in-house or partner externally. After exploring alternatives and working with another IoT provider, Edo was introduced to Normal Software, sparking the start of a transformative partnership. Initially cautious, Edo's leadership was impressed by Normal's industry expertise and commitment to understanding their unique challenges.
A Strategic Collaboration: Bueno & Normal Software
When Bueno set out to enhance their building automation capabilities by launching an Emerson E2 Driver solution to connect directly with refrigeration units, they sought a modern, efficient alternative to legacy systems like Niagara. Introduced to Normal Software through a trusted contact, Bueno recognized the potential of Normal's lightweight, API-first platform to accelerate their time-to-market. This connection marked the beginning of a collaborative partnership that transformed Bueno's approach to refrigeration system integration.
Advancing Building Automation: Neeve & Normal Software
Neeve, a company dedicated to advancing building automation through innovative data integration and optimal security, sought a streamlined solution to extract building data and enhance HVAC control systems. Neeve identified our lightweight, API-first Normal Framework (NF) platform as a cost-effective alternative to heavier systems like Tridium, marking the start of a dynamic partnership. NF, with its focus on low-overhead data egress, aligned perfectly with Neeve's goals, quickly proving its value in their mission to optimize building operations.
