GSA Oklahoma City Federal Building: Smart Buildings Case Study
The purpose of this smart buildings case study is to showcase a leading example of a GEB renovation project in the federal buildings space and provide key information on the project roles, processes, costs, and benefits. The findings from this successful GEB project can be used to help pave the way for additional GEB-ready retrofits in the future. The General Services Administration’s (GSA’s) Oklahoma City (OKC) Federal Building, located in downtown Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, demonstrates that GEB-ready strategies and technologies can be realistically deployed today across buildings with minimal investment. The project team implemented nine energy conservation measures (ECMs) and/or smart building technologies, making it a leading example of a smart, sustainable, and efficient commercial building. The case study highlights the challenges and the lessons learned throughout the project design and execution in addition to some of the best practices and considerations when implementing GEB technologies.
