Elevators: The Critical Infrastructure Supporting Every High-Rise
Elevators aren’t just a convenience but, in office and residential towers alike, are part of the essential infrastructure. All eyes, or in this case, the ability to offer a valuable interaction end-to-end, is on the ranked service of thousands of people a day as the direct impact of a passenger’s experience, building uptime and reputation on the line. However, its care tends to be reactive, disjointed and inefficient.
The Limitations of Traditional Maintenance Models
Despite how crucial they are, many buildings still use antiquated elevator maintenance plans — pen-and-paper tracking, inflexible maintenance schedules, and vendor-driven servicing. This approach often results in:
- Unplanned Downtime – Unexpected malfunctions that disrupt daily operations and tenant satisfaction
- Increased Operational Costs – Emergency repairs and inefficient resource deployment drive up maintenance expenses
- Lack of Visibility – Limited data on service history, technician performance, and asset condition hampers decision-making
- Compliance Risks – Difficulty maintaining records for audits and regulatory requirements
