EMS is fairly complicated. There are multiple ways to implement it (Python, EnergyPlus, OS Measures). But, there are many nuances with which variables to alter and when in the calculation cycles to alter them.
Are you Experienced with EnergyPlus and just new to OpenStudio? Or are you new to both?
If you already know what you're doing in E+, then it's not very difficult to write OS Measures to implement EMS. It's a little odd since you basically write code to write code, but there are advantages to doing it in the OS "Model" space.
