Connectivity and Smart Building updates to the WiredScore Home Scorecard

The latest update to the WiredScore Home scorecard reflects a shift in resident demands and the fact that operators of residential assets are now looking to provide a more seamless digital experience. This is resulting in wide scale adoption of managed service providers and the requirement of operators to drive operational efficiency through the adoption of smart home technology.  

About the latest score card updates

The new WiFi Innovation Framework allows buildings to gain WiredScore innovation credits by implementing additional WiFi capabilities in their building, with an increased focus on a managed Internet service. There are four key features that WiredScore has identified as the most valuable to achieving this: 

• Advanced performance 
• Planning due diligence 
• Enhanced security
• Network personalization

There are also new criteria for smart building integrations including frameworks to assess and manage environmental performance, and a new smart innovation framework which determines whether or not a building does the following: 

• Enhances community engagement  
• Has technology-driven building  operations 
• Monitors energy performance  
• Monitors environment performance 

ASK4 and its partners are perfectly positioned to assist clients in meeting all of these new criteria with our combined managed Internet and ESG technology offering. You can read more about our services here and access the latest WiredScore Home scorecard here.
