Daytona Speedway
Daytona International Speedway, FL
The world renown Daytona Speedway is an amazing building! If it were standing on end it would be over two times taller than the highest building in the world today. Facility Automation Solutions was chosen to design, install and manage the critical systems in this building. See more below.
Objective
When NASCAR decided to replace it’s entire grandstands (over a mile long site) with a new indoor and outdoor state of the art venue, NASCAR tasked Schneider Electric and Facility Automation to create a system that would monitor and command every area of the facility. NASCAR wanted all of the multiple subsystems connected and response to a single dashboard for alarming and management.
Solution
Facility Automation Solutions combined the capabilities of eDrive, VantagePoint, SentryLogic and EcoStruxure in a complete single pane of glass for the Daytona Speedway Operations team. They are now able to monitor and respond to thousands of points and systems during a race or event that is providing entertainment for the hundreds of thousands of guests and their needs.
Results
The Daytona Speedway Operations team is ecstatic with the final product and service it is able to provide it’s customers with a limited staff. The Daytona International Speedway is a pit stop for the race day and it is able to keep the largest single site venue in the world running in top condition.
