PROJECT NAME Macys Pilot Project for Upgrade PROJECT LOCATION Johns Creek, Georgia PROJECT TEAM Owner: Macys, Inc. Engineer: McKenneys, Inc. SPECIALIZATIONS bdoc Energy Management MARKETS Retail
cKenneys completed a pilot project to upgrade an energy monitoring system at Macys stores nationwide. THE CHALLENGE Macys had an existing Tridium Niagara R2 platform for energy management in place that monitored everything from space temperature and light status to water use and trash compactors. When Macys decided
to upgrade to the latest Tridium AX technology, McKenneys conducted a pilot to show the retailer it could seamlessly import critical data into the AX platform while duplicating existing R2 functionality. THE SOLUTION The McKenneys team developed custom software tools and unique code to automate the conversion of store databases while maintaining existing data integrity. This
customization ensured that no functionality was lost while also providing updated capabilities and higher levels of data assurance. In addition, the McKenneys team enhanced Macys data analytics capabilities. THE RESULTS Due to the success of the pilot and procedures established, a full-scale AX upgrade is now underway at all 800-plus Macys stores.
