Buildings IOT Announces Acquisition of Controlco

Buildings IOT, the software developer and building services provider, announces the sale of its distribution business, Controlco, to long-time company leaders Jason Dewar and Chip Cummins.

Controlco began in 1958 and has remained a family run business through decades of evolution.

Amidst a turbulent 2020 and continued pressure from online distributors, Controlco achieved double digit growth last year as well as the highest distributor award from Johnson Controls.

With offices in Pleasant Hill, California, and Nashville, Tennessee, plus a distributed sales team and an online store, Controlco has a strong presence across the country.

Buildings IOT will continue to focus on its core businesses: building systems contracting, master systems integration, data-driven maintenance and development of cloud-based Integrated Building Management Platform solutions for smart buildings.
