Direct Digital Control (DDC) systems are revolutionizing how we manage modern buildings, delivering measurable ROI & competitive advantages that forward-thinking executives can't afford to ignore
From HVAC to lighting to integrated security systems, DDC is the intelligence layer that turns static infrastructure into responsive, efficient, and secure environments. Used in mission-critical facilities and smart buildings, DDC platforms allow for real-time control and automation of multiple subsystems. Think predictive cooling in data centers, automated lockdowns via access control, and AI-driven lighting adjustments—all orchestrated from one central system.
Montel Technologies partners with leading DDC platforms like Siemens Desigo, Tridium Niagara, and Johnson Controls Metasys to integrate seamlessly with video management systems, biometric access control, and environmental sensors—creating a unified operational picture for enhancing and securing Building Access Systems (BAS).
