The COVID-19 pandemic has rapidly changed the way buildings, including their elevators and escalators, function. This industry in the recent past has transformed quickly and drastically because of supply chain disruptions, logistical challenges, and increased digitalization. This has led to changes in the way elevators and escalators are designed, manufactured, operated, and managed on a daily basis. As a result, use of technology has increased, new business models have developed, and sustainable solutions and partnerships/M&As to respond to market dynamics have become more pressing needs.
