Why Choose Control Technologies for Your Engineering Needs?
We can provide energy monitoring services with maintenance contracts at little additional cost.
CTI was the first to provide true "open" architecture control systems using LonTalk protocol and the first to standardize on Web-Enabled control systems. We can design a "Durable Competitive Environment" with Open Systems Technology based on standard protocols such as BACnet, LonTalk, Modbus, Profibus, etc.
We can provide backward integration to existing NW 8000 installations. These integrations allow Web-Enabled access for Anywhere-Anytime control of the facility.
CTI has a long term relationship with Invensys, and can provide factory support and product updates (such as Y2k) long in to the future.
We have server-based customer file storage with off-site back-up and retrieval
- Storage of CTI engineered drawings and submittals
- Storage of custom programs for controllers
- Storage of as-built mechanical plans (full-size drawing scanner for digital drawing records).
Open Systems Design
Control Technologies is nationally recognized for expertise in evaluating existing Facilities Management Systems, and designing transition plans that allow and facilitate the use of Open technology. As a knowledge-based business representing an array of DDC product lines, CTI has programming skill and access to the tools and products required to "open up" proprietary systems.
Our competitors often implement a proprietary system using open components. CTI is skilled at developing Facilities Standards, based on individual client requirements, that can create a "durable competitive environment" whereby a group of pre-qualified temperature control contractors can compete for system additions and service for the life of the system. We are currently performing these services for one of the largest school districts in the country.
CTI is "protocol agnostic". We understand BACnet, Lonworks, a long list of industrial communications standards, and many proprietary protocols. As a Microsoft Certified Partner, and being Cisco trained, we are aware of the IT requirements of today's networked systems, and we are adept in coordinating with IT managers so that common communications backbones are shared "harmoniously". Let us put our experince to work for you.
Performance Contracting
A Control Technologies, Inc. Performance Contract is designed to lower your overall energy costs while funding all necessary capital improvements from the energy savings it creates. These savings can even be used to fund additional infrastructure needs at your facility.
With our Performance Contract, Control Technologies, Inc. will provide guaranteed levels of performance for your energy project. After working with our team to determine your facility's needs, Control Technologies, Inc. will guarantee energy savings associated with the project and then commission the project to perform as specified. We ensure that your entire project related objectives are met.
BENEFITS:
Potential positive cash flow from day one.
No up-front capital outlay.
Your complete project installed on time, on budget.
Improved operational efficiency.
Guaranteed energy savings.
Ongoing operations, maintenance, and technical support.
Integrated Energy Information Services
Our Integrated Energy Information Services provide increased energy efficiency, avoided cost opportunities, and improved energy-related plan operations. We specialize in meeting your energy needs through innovative applications of proven technologies. We have the experience and technical capabilities to bring project concepts to reality. We focus on your energy needs so you can focus on your business.
We can reduce your facilities' energy consumption through effective supervision and analysis of the energy you use with an integrated energy information system.
ENERGY USE PROFILES - A variety of routine analyses will indicate energy inefficient facilities that would benefit from operational or conservation measures.
ENERGY USAGE ANALYSIS - Your energy usage is tracked by our energy information system, and reviewed by a member of our team on a monthly basis to detect and resolve discrepancies and perform energy cost and performance analyses.
ENERGY PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS - To manage your energy as efficiently as possible, a historical energy profile database is created for your facility. Control Technologies, Inc. will coordinate and analyze the collected data on a regular basis to monitor the impact of our recommendations.
ENERGY AUDITS - Our energy audits further assess your energy situation and help identify projects that will increase your energy savings as well as the efficiency and reliability of your equipment.
