What is the state of current installation?

Ask a few key questions

Question

Why asking it

How old is current lighting installation?

To make the customer aware of age of the current lighting and thereby opening them up to consider an upgrade (now).

Since older installations are often less energy efficient, application bundle is a solution which brings up to 65% energy savings.

Was it recently (or ever) checked to meet lighting standards?

If it was never checked (or checked a long ago) there is a chance it does not (or no longer) meet the minimum requirements according to standards.

If the values are not meeting the minimum, this can have impact on productivity or even health of the occupants. This is an argument for an upgrade.

Is this office occupied the entire day? Or people are coming in and leaving different times of day?

To establish if the sensors would make a difference (energy saving). If the office is differently occupied, indeed sensors are an important part of the solution.
