What does an elevator consultant do?
An elevator consultant represents the building owner on technical and contractual elevator decisions: writing maintenance and modernization specifications, auditing contracts and invoices, running bids, overseeing projects, assessing condition for capital plans and investigating incidents.
When should a condo association hire an elevator consultant?
Before a maintenance contract renews, before a modernization, when callbacks or invoices climb, when violations pile up, or when the board needs elevator figures for a reserve study.
