A large healthcare facility faced a familiar yet high-stakes challenge: upgrading its legacy HVAC system to improve energy efficiency and comfort—without disrupting critical operations or exceeding budget.
With multiple buildings, uncertain documentation, and varied stakeholders (FM team, design consultants, contractors, clinical management), the project needed clarity, speed, and coordination from day one.
Rather than rushing into design or relying solely on outdated drawings, the project team took a model-based approach.
Using Hysopt, they built a full system simulation to map the existing hydraulic network across multiple buildings, validate assumptions around flow, temperature, and control logic, and test multiple upgrade scenarios—including full replacement versus a staged retrofit strategy.
Crucially, the model became a shared reference point that aligned technical and non-technical stakeholders. Engineers, clients, and installers could all work from the same set of validated data—making decisions with confidence, not guesswork.

The integrated approach combined simulation with project planning tools and stakeholder engagement methods:
The result? Fewer questions, faster approvals, and smoother coordination between design and site teams.
By combining simulation with collaborative workflows, the team delivered:
More importantly, the facility’s operations were never disrupted—and the upgraded system delivered immediate comfort and energy gains.
This project didn’t succeed by luck. It succeeded through simulation, collaboration, and shared clarity from start to finish.
If you're looking to deliver HVAC systems that perform as promised—on time and with less risk—start by uniting your team around the same model.
