The IBcon Smart Building Best Practice Showcase is an interactive event at the annual Realcomm | IBcon conference that spotlights the most innovative, technology driven commercial and corporate real estate projects. Real estate leaders share their vision, design, and lessons learned during the process of planning and implementation. The full spectrum of transformational technologies presented include IT and OT integration, infrastructure planning from design, physical and cyber security, BIoT, PoE and low voltage, space analytics, sustainable energy, ESG, 5G connectivity, and more. The Weekly News Briefing will feature a unique Showcase project each month.

A highlight of the showcase this year was the Navy Federal Credit Union's smart and sustainable office. Located in Vienna, Virginia, this headquarters modernization strategy was grounded in thorough analysis, balancing immediate needs with long-term value.


The project successfully leveraged targeted smart infrastructure upgrades and sustainability improvements for effective cost savings now; and to position the organization to continue advancing smart building initiatives effectively into the future. Targeting high impact upgrades in energy and water, deploying advanced PoE lighting systems and future-proofing controls enabled multiple smart building certifications, transforming near-term modernization efforts into enduring strategic advantages.
