In a time of continuous development and increasing competition, the best building solutions offer great value beyond just their cost-saving features—they can also expand one’s market and aid in a business’s success.

Mitsubishi Electric, through International Elevator & Equipment, Inc. (IEE), stands on a solid legacy of providing building technologies that are not only energy-efficient and long-lasting, but also profit-boosting. Read on to discover the reasons why investing in technologies that enhance building occupant experience and streamline management is well worth the upfront costs and minimal upkeep.

Expanding One’s Customer Base with Accessibility

Improving buildings’ accessibility to diverse demographics goes beyond mere compliance—it fosters inclusivity, creating opportunities for both businesses and customers. For instance, one in every six people lives with disability^[1], and by equipping buildings with vertical transport options such as elevators and escalators, more customers can be accommodated.

In addition, this also opens doors to other populations that the added convenience caters to, such as the elderly, families with small children, and pregnant women. Mitsubishi Electric’s NEXIEZ-MRL passenger elevator, for one, is an excellent option for businesses of all sizes, as it does not require a machine room, thereby taking up minimal space in a building.

Improving Building Management and Security

Smart resource allotment involves the efficient use of time and manpower in daily operational tasks, such as building management. Mitsubishi Electric’s MELSAFETY-PA provides significant assistance to building managers and administrators, with handy capabilities such as automated attendance monitoring of employees entering and exiting the building—a feature that can also be applied to elevators.

On top of tracking productivity and customer volume, MELSAFETY-PA’s advanced access controls also reinforce overall building security, helping to reduce the risk of theft and prevent unnecessary losses from one’s business.

Enhancing Customer Experiences

In a country like the Philippines, where average temperatures regularly exceed 32°C^[2], one of the most effective ways to encourage customers to stay in one’s business longer is with an efficient air conditioning (AC) system. Maintaining a comfortable interior temperature enhances building occupant comfort, encouraging customers to stay at the establishment and positively influencing their experience.

Additionally, some AC systems produce noises that can cause discomfort and disturbance to some customers, thereby reducing overall customer satisfaction. Recognizing this problem, Mitsubishi Electric expertly designed the MSY GT Series to be one of the quietest AC systems available, generating only 19 dB, which is virtually quieter than a library^[3]. It also utilizes an inverter system to minimize energy consumption by reducing the number of required compressor cycles to reach the target temperature.

Elevating Business Profitability with Mitsubishi Electric Technologies

By viewing building solutions as opportunities to enhance profitability, business owners can make more informed decisions about their infrastructure investments. It can also become a strategic advantage that sets a business apart from its competitors.

Through IEE, Mitsubishi Electric empowers businesses in the Philippines to maximize their gains by expanding their market base, strengthening customer satisfaction, bolstering security, and ensuring resource efficiency in operations.
