Case Study: Top-Tier University achieves $1M+ annual energy savings and proactive campus-wide maintenance with Clockworks Analytics

Proactive Campus-wide Maintenance Results in Significant Energy Reductions

Top Tier University, a large-scale campus in Cambridge, Massachusetts with 90 buildings and 10.2 million square feet, needed a smarter way to gain visibility into operational inefficiencies, prioritize maintenance, and reduce energy costs across a complex portfolio. The university partnered with Clockworks Analytics and deployed its Clockworks™ building analytics/software to support more proactive operations and maintenance.

Clockworks Analytics implemented a campus-wide automated diagnostics and analytics solution (Clockworks™) that monitors 9,200 pieces of equipment and analyzes roughly 19 million data points per day, delivering prioritized, actionable findings to in‑house facility analysts who issue high‑priority work orders. The deployment helped secure utility incentives (via Eversource), informed technical criteria for the building automation system, and produced measurable impact — over $1,000,000 in annual energy savings plus ongoing energy and cost reductions.
