The Cleveland Consultant

Challenging labor markets and intense profitability pressures are plaguing US businesses, and the elevator industry is far from immune. Elevator contractors are trying to do more with less resources, and building owners and managers are paying the price. With few local elevator consultants serving the city, Cleveland businesses have taken the fall.The absence of independent elevator service oversight has led to vertical transportation concerns, such as inadequate elevator maintenance, elevator performance deterioration, slow technician response times, recurring elevator violations, and extended “out of service” times. Inadequate maintenance significantly affects the value of these assets. Improper maintenance reduces an elevator’s lifespan, and delayed repairs cause shutdowns, entrapments, and increased liability/risk.

As a building owner or manager, vertical transportation can be a drain on your time, energy, and budget. Without oversight, elevator contractors often have inflated and inaccurate billing (some cost an additional 40% per year), and proposals from your elevator company can be remarkably above market price. You may experience continuous issues with your elevators, have a frustrating relationship with your service company, or incur unbudgeted costs and invoices.  Ritter Elevator Consulting can take that elevator maintenance management off your plate.  Clients will see real benefits immediately and will be advised continually on activities tracking progress relating to cost savings, performance improvements, and overall elevator maintenance management.

With Ritter Elevator Maintenance Management Services, you can expect improved tenant satisfaction, an advantageous service agreement, accurate and budgeted invoicing, an enhanced, more effective relationship with your service provider, and most importantly, peace of mind.
