About Matrix Control Solutions

Matrix Control Solutions, now operating as E.ON Control Solutions (ECS) after being acquired by E.ON, is a specialized provider of Building Management Systems (BMS). The firm focuses on enhancing energy performance and sustainability within buildings across a diverse range of sectors, including commercial, public, IT, residential, retail, and pharmaceutical.

The core of the business revolves around the design, installation, commissioning, and support of building energy management systems. These systems are engineered to identify and eliminate inefficiencies in building performance, which in turn helps clients reduce energy costs and operational expenditures. Revenue is generated through project installations, which range from small to major undertakings, ongoing site support services, energy management solutions, net-zero projects, and data analytics. A key component of their offering is a 24/7/365 Energy Management Centre (EMC) which serves as a central hub for client data, including energy usage, alarms, carbon reporting, and invoice validation.

The company serves some of the largest brands in the UK, managing their properties both locally and internationally. Their approach is technology-agnostic, allowing them to provide tailored solutions that maximize return on investment for their clients. By focusing on optimizing building services, the company also contributes to improved workplace wellbeing, which has been linked to increased productivity and better staff retention. Prior to its acquisition, the company had already established a strong track record, indicated by a 150% growth in turnover and staff, which was managed by professionalizing its financial and operational processes to handle significant expansion.
