1. A non-transitory computer readable storage media comprising an application for use in a building management system comprising building equipment configured to serve a space in a building or campus, wherein a user device is configured to display a user interface for monitoring and controlling the building equipment and the space, the application comprising instructions stored on the non-transitory computer readable storage media that when executed by a processor cause the processor to:
generate a user interface view including a portion displaying alternate equipment control algorithm selections for a unit of building equipment based on one or more efficiency objectives;
receive a command from a user via the user interface to change a control algorithm controlling building equipment, where in the command is based on a selection by the user of an alternate control algorithm displayed via the user interface but not currently installed on the building management system;
transmit the command from the user to change the control algorithm controlling building equipment, the command causing the building management system to download the alternate control algorithm from an algorithms database and install the alternate control algorithm on the building management system; and
receive a command from the user to process a transaction related to the command from the user to change the control algorithm controlling building equipment, wherein the user interface further includes a portion displaying one or more attributes of the equipment control algorithm selections, wherein the one or more attributes comprise a cost to implement a change to the control algorithm controlling building equipment, expected changes efficiency performance of the building equipment as a result of the change to the control algorithm, projected cost savings as a result of the change to the control algorithm, or a rating of the control algorithm.
