Facility managers juggle comfort calls, work orders, budgets, and buildings that seem fine while wasting energy. LeanFM pairs firsthand facilities-management experience with building-performance research to help your team find HVAC waste, know what to fix first, and show leadership the savings.
Pine Liu is a former facilities manager. He knows the job firsthand: competing demands, limited staff, and little time to dig through trend data for problems that never set off an alarm.
Burcu Akinci's research at Carnegie Mellon looks at how the data a building already collects can show how it really performs.
OnPoint brings the two together. It reads the BAS trend data you already have, ranks issues by dollars, severity, and ease of repair, and gives the evidence, likely root cause, and guidance to resolve each one. AIR scores each building, and Maple lets you ask questions about your building's data in plain language.
One co-founder ran facilities. The other studies how buildings perform. Together they built OnPoint for the people who run buildings.
Nick leads LeanFM, focused on putting practical building-data tools in the hands of facilities, energy, and operations teams.

No new sensors required. Your BAS already collects trend data, and 90 days or more works best. A short sample may not reveal every issue. If the analysis is inconclusive, we'll tell you.
Every AIR rating opens to its findings, and every finding opens to the trend behind it. No black box, because no facilities director should act on one.
OnPoint reads data and never writes to your controls. Your team or contractor makes the fix. Mark it resolved and OnPoint keeps watching for improvement.
Another screen of charts won't help. A ranked list of what to fix, why, and what it's worth will.
Where our co-founders' building-performance research began.
$101,383 saved in 2024, up from $56,386 in 2023, while maintaining the collection's required temperature and humidity. One programming correction required no additional implementation cost.
OnPoint identified $105,000 in estimated annual savings opportunities at a 220,000-square-foot school.
If the data reveals an issue, we'll show a representative finding and its potential savings.
