Commenting on the award, Dilip Rahulan, Chairman and CEO, Pacific Controls, said, We are extremely excited about this award. Our aim has always been to provide timely, integrated system information to our customers, so that they can make intelligent decisions regarding their operation and maintenance, and have an implicit logic that effectively evolves with changing user requirements and technology, ensuring continued and improved intelligent operation, maintenance, and optimization.

He further added, We are in a unique position where we have been able to combine technology with services. As part of our corporate social responsibility, it has been our constant endeavor to liaise with local government bodies and private players and work on initiatives that will provide end-users with the means to increase efficiency, generate cost savings, and provide energy savings as well as a lower carbon footprint.

Among its leading services, Pacific Controls offers remote monitoring, energy management, building commissioning, and facilities management services. Pacific Controls services are designed to lower building operating costs by monitoring and controlling energy-intensive systems, such as HVAC and lighting, which can be measured for optimum performance and predictive maintenance needs, reducing both energy usage and operating expense.
