Control Solutions expands ALC network

CANADA: Carrier subsidiary Automated Logic – Canada (ALC), a leading provider of building management solutions, has acquired Control Solutions, an independent provider of integrated building automation systems.

Headquartered in Coquitlam, British Columbia, Control Solutions has over 100 employees. It designs, installs and services building automation systems across commercial real estate, education, data centres, residential and large mixed-use developments. 

The transaction establishes ALC’s first company-owned controls field office in Vancouver, significantly expanding its intelligent building-automation footprint in Western Canada. 

CSL’s existing leadership and employees will remain in place, continuing to serve customers from their Coquitlam office and project sites across the province.

“This acquisition represents a strategic step in strengthening Automated Logic’s presence in Canada and expanding our ability to deliver integrated, intelligent building solutions in high-growth sectors across British Columbia,” said ALC Field MD Andy Bierer.
