Velocity Air

What Velocity Air does

Velocity Air is an Australian integrated building services company headquartered in Lane Cove West, NSW, delivering HVAC, fire safety, and Building Management Control Systems (BMCS) to commercial and industrial clients across the Sydney metropolitan area. The company operates with a team of over 30 skilled technicians and engineers representing more than 50 years of combined industry experience, and serves a customer base spanning commercial real estate (GPT, JLL, Lend Lease, CBRE, Colliers, Knight Frank, Investa), food service (KFC, Taco Bell), institutional (UNSW, Sydney Markets), industrial (Weir Minerals, Mars), hospitality (Cronulla Sharks, YHA), and retail (Petbarn) clients. Velocity Air holds ISO 14001, ISO 45001, and CM3 contractor management accreditations, and maintains insurance coverage for projects ranging from small offices to commercial buildings up to 60,000m².

The company's core technology is a web-based Integrated Building Management Controls platform providing centralised monitoring and control of mechanical, HVAC, fire, and energy systems, supported by a proprietary mobile technician platform integrated with Microsoft Dynamics and a customer web portal that gives clients visibility into asset performance, maintenance history, and life cycle analysis. The product portfolio spans BMCS, annual fire testing and certification, bespoke preventative maintenance, 24/7 breakdown and emergency services, specialist chiller services (including Smardt PowerPax Platinum Chiller Service), asset management, energy management and metering, multi-site and campus control solutions, plant upgrades, fit-outs, and full commercial and industrial HVAC installation.

Revenue is generated through recurring service and maintenance contracts (preventative maintenance and scheduled servicing), project-based installation work (plant upgrades, fit-outs, new construction), reactive and emergency services, and specialist chiller services. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed; multi-year contracts are typical. The go-to-market combines direct field sales targeting building owners, property managers, and facilities managers with a website-driven service call request funnel and reputation-driven referrals from longstanding enterprise clients. Geographic reach is currently regional, confined to Sydney and broader New South Wales, with no public funding, M&A, or expansion outside this footprint.

Core offering

Velocity Air is an Australian integrated building services provider that delivers HVAC mechanical services, fire safety testing and certification, and web-based Building Management Control Systems (BMCS). The company combines scheduled preventative maintenance, 24/7 breakdown and emergency response, chiller plant services, asset management, and turnkey installation/fit-out projects for commercial, industrial, and multi-site facilities across the Sydney metropolitan area.

Product overview

Velocity Air is an integrated building services company offering a unified portfolio of climate control solutions spanning HVAC, Fire, and BMCS (Building Management Control Systems). Rather than a single product or software platform, Velocity Air's offering is a coordinated suite of service disciplines: the core BMCS platform provides web-based integrated building management controls which connects to and manages mechanical systems; this is supported by annual fire testing and certification, energy management and metering systems, and multi-site campus control solutions. The portfolio extends to specialist chiller services (including Smardt PowerPax Platinum Chiller Service), bespoke preventative maintenance programs, 24/7 reactive and breakdown emergency services, asset management with a customer web portal, and turnkey installation services including plant upgrades, commercial/industrial installation, and tenancy fit-outs. These services are delivered by over 30 technicians and are designed to work as an integrated whole—from real-time monitoring and controls through to maintenance, emergency response, and long-term asset planning—providing complete environmental control solutions from small offices to 60,000m² commercial buildings.
