Lighting the Path to a Safer Campus

How Austin Community College Upgraded to StreetMan^®

Students at Austin Community College, also known as Riverbats, attend evening classes whatever the time of year. With about 11 campuses and over 34,000 students. ACC is one of the largest community colleges in the country, managing the lighting in its many parking lots is essential for the safety and convenience of students and faculty.

For many years, ACC used Acuity Brands’ ROAM smart outdoor lighting system to manage its lights. However, when Acuity decided to phase out its ROAM software, ACC needed a reliable solution to maintain its outdoor lighting and keep its campus safe. That’s where Dhyan Networks stepped in. Dhyan partnered with Acuity to move ROAM users like ACC to StreetMan, Dhyan’s trusted lighting management platform.

A Smooth Transition and a Safer Campus

The switch to StreetMan was seamless. Dhyan handled the entire migration remotely, covering all 11 campuses without needing any on-site visits. This hassle-free transition meant that ACC could keep its lights running smoothly while upgrading to a more advanced system.

StreetMan makes it easy for ACC’s facilities team to set lighting schedules, monitor energy usage, and get instant alerts in case of any outages, keeping the campus safe and well-lit without the need for constant manual checks.

Giving ACC’s Facilities Team More Control

With StreetMan, ACC’s facilities team can now manage lighting schedules more accurately, turning lights on and off based on real time needs. This not only helps reduce energy costs but also ensures that parking lots are properly lit when students need them most. StreetMan’s monitoring tools give the team full visibility into energy usage, and the system alerts them right away if a light fails, allowing for quick fixes that keep everything running smoothly.

A Brighter Future for ACC

Thanks to StreetMan, ACC now has a smart and efficient outdoor lighting system that helps ensure a safe campus environment for all. Dhyan Networks’ commitment to innovation means that ACC can rest easy knowing their lighting needs are in good hands.
