We maintain the IT infrastructure in a school. We have multiple buildings in the school campus. We have a PRIVA Systems - HVAC building automation system & remote controller (industrial PC's).

Now we have multiple buildings in that school.

In one building, lets say the main building, we have the main automation system to manage the HVAC, it controls al the heating and air flow systems.

The maintenance engineers can remotely log in into the system via TeamViewer app or Windows Remote desktop from a system in our maintenance office which we can likewise manage the system.
