- ABB Ability™ BuildingPro connects building intelligence with the Samsung SmartThings Pro enterprise IoT ecosystem
- BuildingPro Edge integration spans field-level protocols, such as BACnet, KNX, ModBus, and energy metering, while BuildingPro Suites provides a secure connection to the cloud
- A dedicated hospitality solution based on ABB i-bus® KNX and NETxAutomation enables guest room integration with Samsung SmartThings Pro
ABB and Samsung Electronics today announced a new integration between ABB Ability™ BuildingPro and Samsung SmartThings Pro, building on their existing partnership. The integration enables building owners and operators to access building data, insights and controls through a more connected environment.
Building owners and operators are managing increasingly complex property portfolios while facing growing pressure to improve efficiency and meet sustainability goals. ABB and Samsung are directly addressing that challenge by connecting their respective building intelligence and enterprise IoT platforms, providing greater visibility into building performance through a familiar digital environment.
ABB Ability™ BuildingPro connects devices and data across building systems, enabling analytics and operational insights through ABB Ability™ BuildingPro Suites. Samsung SmartThings Pro brings these capabilities into the Samsung ecosystem via a secure cloud-to-cloud integration, allowing data to be shared between both platforms.
“Building owners require a data foundation they can trust and tools that make it easier to manage increasingly complex building portfolios,” said Mike Mustapha, Division President, ABB Electrification’s Smart Buildings Division. “By integrating ABB Ability™ BuildingPro with Samsung SmartThings Pro, we are helping owners and operators access the insights they need to make more informed decisions across their buildings.”
“Samsung SmartThings Pro gives enterprise customers a familiar platform to manage and maximize their buildings and assets,” said Chan-Woo Park, Executive Vice President, Samsung Electronics Device eXperience Division. “Combined with ABB Ability™ BuildingPro, customers can access building information and controls through a connected experience that helps simplify day-to-day building management.”
Together, ABB Ability™ BuildingPro and Samsung SmartThings Pro provide building operators with a unified view of lighting, climate, shading and access control systems, alongside energy monitoring and presence detection data. With ABB Ability™ BuildingPro Suites, operators can access analytics and operational insights to better manage building performance across offices, retail locations and larger commercial buildings.
In hospitality environments, a dedicated solution based on ABB i-bus® KNX and NETxAutomation software supports guest room integration with Samsung SmartThings Pro. The integration supports occupancy-based energy management and centralized monitoring, helping hotel operators reduce energy consumption and improve operational efficiency. The solution also facilitates a phased deployment, allowing customers to pilot the technology in a single area before scaling across a property or wider building portfolio.
For guests, the integration allows them to adjust lighting, climate, shading and entertainment through Samsung SmartThings Pro from their own smartphones. Guests can also personalize their room environment throughout their stay without having to download an additional app.
The ABB Ability™ BuildingPro and Samsung SmartThings Pro integration will be rolled out at three proof-of-concept sites throughout 2026: Samsung’s Business Experience Center in Eschborn, Germany; Samsung’s Training Center in Amsterdam, Netherlands; and ABB’s headquarters in Middelfart, Denmark. The sites will showcase how the integration can support energy efficiency, building performance and user experience in real-world settings.
ABB and Samsung are laying the foundation for a new generation of commercial buildings where building operations and user experience are no longer separate systems, but part of a single, connected experience.
