Elevator Consulting: Maintenance Audits

KDA Elevator Consultants, LLC reviews and evaluates the maintenance program (also known as the MCP, or Maintenance Control Program) practiced by your current provider to confirm that what’s performed on your equipment matches what’s needed.

Our elevator consultants compare the vertical transportation system’s maintenance protocol, which we establish based on the original installation date, existing code requirements, and technical specifications, to the procedures practiced by the elevator maintenance provider. KDA Elevator Consultants, LLC then identifies inconsistencies that may lead to system deterioration and/or safety risk.

We will recommend improvements, define the life expectancies for equipment, and detail the alterations or immediate repairs needed for the equipment. Finally, KDA Elevator Consultants, LLC can secure a revised maintenance program for building owners by helping to solicit repairs or negotiating a revised maintenance contract with a new or existing provider.

Elevator Consulting: Maintenance Contract Review

While many elevator maintenance providers operate under contract with building owners, the agreed-upon terms may be ambiguous, under-specified, or inaccurate to suit the vertical transportation system’s requirements.

After a thorough inspection and learning the history of the elevator’s installation and performance, KDA Elevator Consultants, LLC is most knowledgeable about the equipment; our mission is to advocate for our clients’ best interest by defining maintenance contracts that are reasonable and beneficial. Our elevator consultants promote the safety and security of your investment by reviewing maintenance contracts so they respect our clients and their equipment.
