Assess and Plan

Condition assessment for lifts and escalators

Clear findings. Timely decisions.

We examine the condition of your installation and evaluate the need for action from a technical and economic perspective. You receive a sound basis for deciding on continued operation, repair, modernisation or replacement, preparing investments and choosing the right time for action.

When does a condition assessment help?

  • Investment ahead

    You want to know how urgently and to what extent renewal is needed.

  • Proposal received

    You would like an expert view on an offer you have received.

  • Budget preparation

    Solid findings should feed into your multi-year planning.

We provide clarity before you decide on the timing and extent of the work.

Added value for your role

  • Owners and investors

    You plan investments based on the actual condition of your installations – sustainably and cost-effectively.

  • Property management companies

    You can show your clients why a measure is needed and compare supplier quotes on a sound basis.

  • Public-sector clients

    You can justify renewal budgets with documented findings.

Frequently asked questions

Does an older lift have to be replaced?

Not necessarily. Besides age, what matters most is the actual condition and the technical, operational and economic circumstances.

Can an existing modernisation proposal be reviewed?

Yes. We review existing repair or modernisation proposals as part of the assessment and compare them with the actual need for action.

Does the assessment replace periodic inspections?

No. Required or contractually agreed inspections remain unchanged. The condition assessment complements them as an independent basis for advice and decisions.

Let’s define the next step together

Do you need to decide whether an installation should stay in operation, be repaired, modernised or replaced? We assess its condition independently and show the resulting need for action.
