Smart Building Certification is proud to be working with Hathon, the Norweigen property developer, to assess and certify their Hausmanns Hus property. Not only will we certify their property, but work together to identify gaps, opportunities, and bring heightened innovation through the SBC network to their products and services. Hathon has the ambition to be a part of the market leadership in the smart building industry and we are pleased to be on this journey with them.

“We recently kicked off the Hathon project and I was blown away by the future focused solutions, as a company, they truly understand the value of smart and see it as an ability to stay flexible for their customers, sustainable for the environment, and detailed data focused for their ability to manage their assets for better holistic results. We very much look forward to diving into this project and working together for a smarter future.” - Nicholas White, Head of Operations and Strategy at Smart Building Certification

Hausmanns Hus is set to be delivered in 2022 and is incredibly smart. Ongoing Covid 19 and the changing real estate landscape has made it challenging to predict the future and strategize on the real estate need. Hathon has landed a fabulous location in the center of Oslo and has chosen a fit out design that is optimally flexible with smart functionality to continuously measure, manage, and improve as they go. This strategy looks to be one for success and one developers should adopt moving forward.

The requirements for the certificate are classified in 6 categories

1) building usage 2) building performance 3) health safety and security 4) building environment 5) user experience and collaboration 6) connectivity and integrative design. Hathon strives to score as high as possible for each category, but also with heightened focus on the benchmark and what can be learned from others following a similar journey. These themes set a framework for continuous exploration and discussion.

""Our strategy is to build not only for the first tenant and their needs at this moment, but also for their evolving needs as they change over time. Therefore we invest in solutions that make the building easy to adapt in every way. This includes every aspect of the building from floorplans to data and device management, handling and sharing. We are excited to team up with SBC to put our plans to the test and see if it sticks and discover where we can further improve. We are looking forward to get started and happy to be part of the SBC-network and share their philosophy of continues improvement." - Martin Sofus Almerud, Technical Manager Sustainability | Optimizing | Development Hathon
