Bacup IT and Liftek announced that they will cooperate in developing Smart Elevator Control System, a replicable product for efficient and safe operation of elevators inside buildings. The project involves the development of software components and hardware equipment.

• Ensure optimal, cost-efficient, and safe operation of elevators.
• Collect and process information received from elevator control nodes (number of stops, departure/arrival time and floor, etc.)
• Collect and instantaneously process emergency requests.
• Organize elevator maintenance activities (for example, the operation of technicians and janitors, keeping track of worn parts of elevator equipment that need to be replaced or repaired, etc.)
• Automatically scheduling the maintenance and emergency repairs of elevator equipment.
• Provide digital voice communication between an operator (dispatcher) and passengers.
• Generate and remotely play alarm sounds and advertisements in the elevator car.

• All principal elevator elements are controlled
• Voice communication with an operator
• In case of an electricity failure, the car will be taken to the nearest floor to release passengers.
• Hoisting mechanisms keep the elevator moving smoothly in the shaft to minimize energy consumption.
• Volume diagnostics and maintainability of the system.

• Communication with a control center through the GPRS, Ethernet, or FrameRelay channels
• Integration with other building automation systems, such as intrusion detection systems, video surveillance systems, and intercommunication means.
• Automatic meter reading for water, gas, and electricity utilities.
