**About Toronto Metropolitan University**

**Making Ontario Buildings Smart** The Making Ontario Buildings Smart (MOBuS) program is centred around a large, multi-partner consortium, consisting of 12 faculty from four (4) institutions with 21 private-sector and one (1) government partner to reduce resistance to smart building adoption. The objectives of MOBuS are to:

- Reduce the technical barriers to adoption by developing novel solutions to make key smart building technologies easily consumable by operators who are not skilled in information technology and supporting the commercialization of these technologies by Ontario companies;
- Reduce commercial barriers to adoption by both improving the ROI for smart building conversion and communicating these clearly to the market through costed case studies;
- Reduce market confusion by aligning standardization efforts to provide unified market direction regarding Smart Building implementation and supporting this with an industry-friendly document that helps owners navigate the ‘what’, ‘why’, and ‘how’ of Smart Building implementation, including operator training, data privacy and cybersecurity best practices, a benchmarking tool, and clear roadmap to implementation; and,
- Scale the impact of this initiative across Ontario and beyond through policy.

This grant is an applied R&D-focused project with a strong focus on commercialization and field studies to develop, test, and validate new technology solutions. These objectives will be achieved by a series of coordinated sub-projects across four pillars of research enabling the ‘how’ of smart buildings, developing solutions to improve buildings for people (comfort and functionality) and the planet (decarbonization), and market research to support the development and commercialization of new technology solutions. The consortium was initially established in July 2019 and has received significant new funding for sub-projects from July 2024 through June 2029.

The Project Co-ordinator will provide effective co-ordination and overall project management support for the OFR-RE program; ensure creation and implementation of administrative, operational and financial procedures, processes, and controls to facilitate smooth and efficient research; engage with the private sector partners (PSPs) and end-users; coordinate and attend Governance meetings and other activities of the program.
