From the award entry

GENIECON is a next-generation digital control system for commercial building pump installations. Its 10-inch multi-touch interface guides users through installation, operation and maintenance.

The entry highlights simple at-a-glance interaction, progressive disclosure, access control and cybersecurity – working together to improve reliability, reduce operational risk and support scalable building infrastructure.

Two categories

GENIECON was recognised in two categories:

• Excellent Product Design – Industry

• Excellent Product Design – Service Design

Industry looks at the product. Service Design looks at how it works across installation, daily operation and service over the years it is in use.
