Airports

Airports operate some of the most visible and heavily used equipment in the world, where downtime directly impacts passenger flow, safety, and airline operations.

Knaq helps airport operators manage this complexity by providing:

  • Portfolio-wide visibility across elevators, escalators, moving walkways, and related assets, with data that can feed existing BMS and enterprise reporting systems

  • Earlier warning of degradation that leads to service disruptions

  • No longer rely on passenger complaints as a signal something is wrong

  • Data that supports coordination between facilities, maintenance contractors, safety teams and airport operations

  • Portfolio-level visibility and reporting across terminals, concourses, and landside infrastructure

Transit Systems

Transit agencies manage aging, mixed fleets under strict reliability, accessibility, and public accountability requirements.

World-class transit systems rely on Knaq for:

  • Early identification of failures that lead to station outages and ADA accessibility violations

  • System-wide visibility across legacy and modern equipment without controller upgrades

  • Portfolio-level insight across stations, lines, service regions, and contractors 

  • Data to support compliance reporting and response to regulator inquiries

  • Fewer unplanned outages that disrupt riders and transit operations

Hospitals

Hospitals rely on continuous equipment availability to support patient movement, staff workflows, and life-safety operations.

Knaq empowers them to do this by providing:

  • Real-time awareness of asset health across elevators and critical mechanical systems

  • Reduced risk of unexpected outages that disrupt patient transport and clinical operations

  • Early detection of degradation before failures impact care delivery

  • Clear reporting for facilities leadership, safety committees, and compliance teams

  • Non-invasive deployment that does not interfere with life-safety or clinical systems

Universities

Universities operate diverse assets across academic buildings, residence halls, research facilities, and medical campuses.

Knaq enables campus facilities teams to operate more proactively with:

  • Centralized visibility across distributed, mixed-age equipment portfolios

  • Proactive maintenance planning to avoid outages during peak class and housing periods

  • Reduced emergency maintenance in older buildings with limited diagnostics

  • Data to support budgeting, capital planning, and deferred maintenance decisions

  • A single platform that works across historic and newly constructed facilities

Utilities

Water utilities depend on reliable mechanical systems where failures can have immediate service and regulatory consequences.

Knaq supports utility operators by:

  • Giving continuous insight into the condition of pumps, blowers, generators, and related assets

  • Providing early warning of degradation that could impact service continuity

  • Eliminating time consuming site visits with cloud-based  data feeds across treatment plants and facilities from anywhere

  • Non-invasive monitoring suitable for critical, always-on infrastructure

Real Estate Portfolios

Large real estate portfolios require consistent performance across diverse properties and tenants.

Knaq helps owners and operators maintain reliability through:

  • Unified visibility across elevators, mechanical systems, and shared infrastructure

  • Reduced tenant disruptions caused by unplanned outages

  • Better insight into contractor performance and maintenance outcomes

  • Portfolio benchmarking across buildings and regions

  • Data that supports asset management and long-term planning

Other Facilities

For operators managing critical equipment in complex environments, Knaq provides a flexible foundation for visibility and decision-making, including:

  • Support across manufacturers, controllers, and asset types

  • Suitability for regulated and mission-critical environments

  • Scalability from single facilities to large portfolios

  • Proactive maintenance without operational risk

  • Seamless integration into existing workflows and systems

AI-Powered Predictive Maintenance
Knaq’s sensors work across all manufacturers, controller types, and equipment generations, giving you a single view of mixed fleets. Yes, even those old Dover DMC’s.
A centralized, cloud-based dashboard provides real-time visibility into asset health, performance, and status across your entire portfolio. Teams can quickly identify issues, compare performance across sites, and access historical data from anywhere they can access the internet.
Machine learning models analyze patterns in equipment behavior to identify early signs of degradation before failures occur. Trend analysis helps maintenance teams prioritize work, plan interventions, and reduce unplanned outages over time.

Sound Transit
"When we start seeing an increased number of elevator re-levels, it can be an indicator that there is an issue with the valve . With Knaq, we get ahead of it and turn what would be an emergency repair with extended down time into a minor adjustment or repair on our timeline"
