VERTICAL TRANSPORTATION CONSULTING
ELEVATOR CONSULTING :: ESCALATOR CONSULTING :: MOVING WALKWAY CONSULTING
A well designed Vertical Transportation (VT) System is critical for the smooth operation of your building. Poor elevators, escalators or moving walkways design will result in wasted monies, system inefficiencies, and thus, long waiting times that influence the reputation, and ultimately the value of your building. Conversely, an over-designed VT system will lead to increased investment costs, loss of GFA and higher maintenance costs.
For a fraction of the costs of the elevators, escalators and moving walkways themselves, HKA Elevator Consulting can prepare an optimal Vertical Transportation Consulting strategy and tactical plan – balancing waiting times, core space needs, and investment and maintenance costs. Our Vertical Transportation Consulting design[s] consider the building’s current and future population density, and ensure the contractor will install the appropriate overall equipment; providing overall quality and resulting in reliable, care-free operations during the equipment lifetime.
Based on these factors, 15-20 years is the typical time-frame after which elevator consulting, escalator consulting and moving walkway consulting [Vertical Transportation Consulting] + modernization should be considered. Involvement of an independent vertical transportation consulting firm for either elevator consulting, escalator consulting or moving walkways consulting brings significant benefits and pay-back to the building’s owner in form of lower investment and maintenance costs, thorough and clear specifications, open tendering processes, right design, and selection of technology. HKA Vertical Transportation Consulting modernization strategies and plans are key tacticals to upgrade your building regarding code compliance, safety and reliability, energy efficiency and traffic performance.
The maintenance costs of your elevators, escalators and moving walkways are only a small fraction of your total building operating costs. However, the overall daily vertical transportation performance is essential for your building. Long waiting times, noisy, erratic, or unreliable operation, poor ride comfort and loose or broken parts visible to the user give an instant bad impression about safety and quality of the whole building. Moreover, these issues may also cause unpredictable extra costs, and with on-sight audits HKA Vertical Transportation Consulting will reference them, provide a quick and workable plan and solution – quickly and economically.
Through our VT 360™ integrated services [elevator consulting, escalator consulting, moving walkway consulting and vertical transportation consulting], HKA can help both the owner and the VT maintenance company by managing, preventing, and improving the maintenance scheduling, conditions and performance.
