Title:

Elevator Controller System

Agreement Number:

947474

Agreement Value:

$500,000.00

Agreement Date:

Apr 1, 2020 - Dec 31, 2021

Description:

Develop a single world wide accepted and compliant elevator/home lift controller for all drive and elevator types in our market segment. Currently our controllers vary in design and age since development, we experience parts sourcing issues as technology advances. Each controller design was developed to meet the requirements of a specific drive system or regional specifications. Our technical support is strictly based on on phone conversations relying on a technician to be on site in every instance. Our production costs are high based on volume and component price. A new universal controller would be designed to eliminate these production and market issues.
