Abstract
Building management system comprising: a building monitoring system (10) located in a customer's building (1) to monitor equipment installed in the building (1); a branch office server (30) located at each branch office (3) of branch offices (3), each of which is arranged in zones formed by parts of an area, wherein the customer's buildings (1) are dispersed over a plurality of parts, with maintenance workers based at the branch offices (3) who visit the customer's buildings (1) located in the zone to perform maintenance work; portable terminal devices (4) with a global positioning system function, worn by the maintenance workers; and an information management server located in an information center (2), wherein the building management system is characterized bythat it has: a collection device for current location information to collect current location information indicating the current locations of maintenance workers based on communication with the portable terminals; a damage status information collection device to collect, in the event of an accident in each of the branch office servers (30), damage status information indicating the damage status of the equipment to be monitored by the building monitoring system (10) from the building monitoring system (10) located in the zone; a workforce information generation device to generate, for each zone, workforce information including the number of maintenance workers required for restoration work on damaged equipment of the buildings (1) by referring to the damage status information; an evacuation information generation device;to determine a branch office (3) as the evacuation location for each maintenance worker by referring to the current location information collected by the current location information collection device and to the necessary workforce information generated by the necessary workforce information generation device, and to generate evacuation information that indicates the designated evacuation location to each maintenance worker in the information management server, and an indication device to indicate the evacuation location to the maintenance workers by sending the evacuation information to the portable terminals (4) worn by the maintenance workers in the information management server.
