Firm Profile and Experience
Charles Calderone Associates, Inc. (CCA) is a specialty design and consulting firm with over 40 years experience — solely dedicated to assessments, planning, and design of vertical transportation systems.
We are an established small business with strong policies and practices.
Our reputation is based on extensive experience and guidance to the building industry to optimize building transportation system quality and performance, and to ensure product and service value.
We work with building owners and architects to analyze elevator and escalator system requirements, and we design for prudent integration of evolving technology and installation practices to assure that our clients' present and future elevator / escalator needs are met.
