BMS · BMS integrator (confidential)
BMS panels for one integrator across Trend, Tridium and iSMA
One BMS integrator, three controller platforms. Since July 2025 we have designed and manufactured their BMS panels for schools, plant rooms and air handling units, on Trend, Tridium or iSMA, whichever the job called for.

The challenge
An integrator whose controller platform changes from job to job: Trend on one site, Tridium with iSMA on the next.
What we supplied
Nine orders of BMS panels in just over a year, each wired for whichever controllers the job used, indoor and outdoor.
The result
One panel builder for every platform they install, with help after delivery when a site turned up a surprise.
The requirement
BMS panels for each of the integrator's projects as it came up. That has meant a Trend IQ panel for a primary school plant room; a two-door plant room panel for pumps, air handling unit fans, boilers and a destratification fan; Tridium JACE panels with iSMA I/O and a 15.6-inch panel PC; an outdoor polyester panel with an iSMA controller for an air handling unit; and a Trend panel with an M-Bus converter for metering.
The constraints
- A different controller platform from one job to the next, with Trend, Tridium and iSMA all in use.
- Some panels in two enclosures, some outdoors in polyester, some with power to the plant as well as the controls.
- Hand/off/auto, enable and fault on the door for every item of plant, so site staff can see and run it without a laptop.
- Orders arriving one project at a time, each with its own programme.
What we built
Whatever the controllers, the layout and labelling stay the same: supplies and MCBs, interposing relays for every enable, and labelled terminals for the field wiring. We draw each panel from the integrator's points schedule, agree the drawing with them, then manufacture and routine test it in Stoke-on-Trent.
Delivery
Many of the panels went out about four weeks after the order, and one two-panel job was delivered 12 days ahead of the date needed.
The outcome
The integrator has one panel supplier for every platform they install, and the help carries on after delivery. On one job they found on site that the existing motor control panel fed 230V through a safety interlock contact. We worked out a relay kit for their engineers to fit, and we are updating the as-installed drawing so it matches what is on the wall.

“Normally we'd expect a 6 to 8 week lead time on a panel build. In this case it was done in 12 working days, which is a testament to G&G Controls and SSE working together.”
- Wiring diagram, test certificate and 12-month warranty with every panel
- Built to BS EN 61439 and BS EN 60204-1 in Stoke-on-Trent
- We reply during working hours, usually the same working day

One MCCP for 64 motors in a water park plant room
The pool and water park plant room at Butlins Skegness needed a new MCCP to run every pump, blower and feature from one place, with a BMS interface for the integrator's controllers. We designed and built it in Stoke-on-Trent.

SSE Energy Solutions
A Form 2 outdoor BMS panel on the roof in 12 working days
SSE Energy Solutions were refitting the third floor of Highgate Mental Health Hospital in London: new walls, heating, HVAC, electrical and controls throughout, with a new BMS tying into the trust's existing Trend network. The panel for it had to sit on the roof, and the only crane was coming down in three weeks.
