Boston, MA JM Electrical, one of the leading specialized electrical contractors in Greater Boston, has completed the Building Management System (BMS) installation at Boston Logan International Airport’s Terminal E modernization. This milestone marks a significant achievement in the enhancement of international travel infrastructure in the Greater Boston area.
In collaboration with Automated Logic Contracting, JM Electrical played a pivotal role in the expansive 390,000 s/f addition and renovation of Terminal E. The modernization project has introduced four new international aircraft gates, thereby boosting the terminal’s capacity and improving efficiency for international travelers at Logan Airport. The modernization efforts extend to new TSA security checkpoints, updated ticketing areas, and baggage handling systems, including enhancements to existing baggage facilities to accommodate the new expansion footprint. New passenger amenities, such as a mothers’ room, a pet relief area, and a sensory room, further elevate the travel experience.
The Building Management System at Terminal E plays a crucial role in the facility by monitoring and controlling building services, including HVAC, lighting, and plumbing systems. This centralized control allows for optimized energy use, improved operational efficiency, and enhanced occupant comfort. JM Electrical’s expertise in BMS installation ensures that Terminal E’s systems operate seamlessly, contributing to its sustainability and efficiency goals.
