Section 87 of 105
84. Building BIOS Authority
Stable section ID: S05-CON-014-SECTION-87 · 29 content blocks
The Building BIOS shall be the authoritative configuration and control foundation for each System05 building.
The Building BIOS shall define, as applicable:
- Building and site identity.
- Architectural layer structure.
- Authoritative Configuration Baseline.
- Installed asset and assembly relationships.
- Approved Interface versions.
- Engineering states and transitions.
- Operating limits and protected parameters.
- Safety constraints.
- Access and authority rules.
- Emergency and degraded-state behavior.
- Commissioning status.
- Required evidence.
- Configuration history.
- Recovery and migration provisions.
The Building BIOS shall possess higher configuration authority than:
- A Digital Twin.
- User dashboards.
- Operational applications.
- AI systems.
- Robotic planning systems.
- Manufacturer portals.
- Cloud analytics.
- Informal field records.
These systems may read, analyze, visualize, recommend, or request changes, but they shall not silently redefine the approved building configuration.
Building BIOS changes shall be authenticated, authorized, versioned, traceable, and verified. Safety-critical changes shall receive review and approval proportionate to their consequence.
The Building BIOS shall remain recoverable and sufficiently accessible during loss of ordinary networks, cloud services, vendors, or AI capabilities.
The Building BIOS does not replace applicable law, engineering responsibility, or physical verification. It cannot make an unsafe physical condition safe merely by recording it as approved.
