Hello and welcome to the April issue of Tomorrow’s FM.
At a crucial panel discussion in Barcelona at Integrated Systems Europe (ISE) 2025, supported by Hikvision, under the banner ‘Empowering People for a Safer Digital Future,’ the key talking points were on the practical cybersecurity challenges faced by those responsible for building systems and how interconnected building management systems (BMS), access control, HVAC, and security cameras create potential entry points for cyberattacks.

As Hikvision note in their feature on page 40, facilities managers are on the front lines of cybersecurity, responsible for protecting critical infrastructure and ensuring the safety of building occupants. With this in mind, you can read about the several solutions that were proposed to address these challenges in an overview of the panel discussion. We also have an eclectic range of other features on Security in our spotlight this month, providing you with essential advice on what has become an integral area in the current geopolitical climate.
Elsewhere, Cistermiser and TORK head up our Washroom feature, with the former analysing why inefficient flushing systems are draining money and resources, and looking at how smarter solutions, like sensor-controlled urinals and direct flush toilets, offer a simple fix to cut waste and futureproof buildings. The latter takes a deep-dive into airport washrooms and asks what are their chief requirements and how important are they to passengers?
Combined with our spotlights on Ergonomics, Vehicle Logistics & Fleet Management, and HVAC & Air Quality, there’s a lot of analysis and debate from across the sector in this issue.
Enjoy the issue.
