The Department of Public Works (Department) is responsible for managing contract maintenance and repair services for the elevator and escalator systems throughout the County building portfolio. There are currently 57 elevators and two escalators at various County facilities.

Representatives from the Department participated in the selection committee that reviewed the qualifications of the firms submitting bids.
