Computrols

The WorldSTAT Energy Management System was developed by Computrols, Inc., a company known for decades of innovation in the HVAC controls and building automation industry.

A privately held corporation based in New Orleans, Louisiana, Computrols designs, manufactures and services state-of-the-art building automation systems throughout the U.S. and abroad. With over 20 years in the industry, Computrols has established a solid reputation as a leader in automation systems for large facilities. High-rise office towers, military bases, and government monuments across the United States and the world benefit from the power, simplicity, and reliability of Computrols products. Through their branch offices and dealer network, Computrols continues to grow its customer base and distribution channels, as well as expand its product lines into new markets.

In 1983 Computrols began providing first-rate professional technical service for large building automation systems. These were the formative years for Computrols. A complete dedication and commitment to customer satisfaction provided valuable lessons that would carry the company for years to come. Computrols learned that simplicity, flexibility, and power were the cornerstones of success in the building automation industry. And it’s this first-hand knowledge of what’s important to customers that continues to drive Computrols product development even today.

In an effort to gain better control of the systems that they were servicing, Computrols began developing their own building automation software. They found software development to be a tremendous mechanism for implementing their company philosophy. Through a simple yet powerful software design and an array of 3rd party interfaces, the software package brought Computrols a host of new customers and opportunities. Even though there are many parts to large networked building automation systems, the software brings a face to an otherwise complex collection of components. That’s why, even today, Computrols continues to dedicate tremendous focus and resources to their software products. CBAS remains the flagship of the Computrols product lines. Customers that use CBAS enjoy a first class driving experience. Not only do they feel the power of controlling their building’s operations from the convenience of a high-powered CBAS workstation, they actually enjoy it.

With the success of their software, Computrols decision to begin designing and manufacturing their own line of electronic controls was simple. In 1993, the Electronic Design Department was launched. Since that time, Computrols' electronics engineers have remained loyal to the company’s mission of simplicity, flexibility, and power, producing controls and automation products with the same quality that Computrols customers have come to expect from the company's service and software divisions. And because senior management oversees all user-related aspects of electronics products–from keypads to LCDs, from usability to ease-of-installation–Computrols products continue reflect the same honest values upon which a reputation was built.

In recent years, there has been a flurry of activity. Computrols has expanded into new international markets, launched a successful dealer network, and targeted new market segments like retail chains and small commercial properties. But through all of this, Computrols has still managed to push the envelope in research and development. Web-based controllers, wireless products, and advanced energy management techniques are just a few of the recent developments.

For Computrols, the future is brighter than ever. With a solid commitment to great customer service, cutting edge software, state-of-the-art electronic controls, and a continuing passion for an ever-evolving industry –success is certain. Great things are in works, and Computrols is committed to providing their customers with the latest technology, and continued excellence in service.
