Maintenance & Annual Maintenance Contracts

Lift maintenance that stops small faults becoming breakdowns.

Quick answer

Smartrise maintains lifts and elevators in Dar es Salaam and across Tanzania under Annual Maintenance Contracts (AMC) — quarterly, bi-annual or annual visits that inspect and adjust the equipment before faults become breakdowns. We also service lifts installed by other companies and other manufacturers; tell us the brand and age and we confirm what we can cover.

What is an Annual Maintenance Contract (AMC)?

An AMC is a scheduled servicing agreement for your lift or automation system — quarterly, bi-annual or annual. Each visit inspects, cleans and adjusts the equipment and records what was done. For a lift in daily use it is usually cheaper than paying for emergency call-outs.

Will Smartrise service a lift another company installed?

Yes. We take on maintenance contracts for equipment we did not install, including other manufacturers. Share the brand, model and approximate age when you ask for a quote; we inspect it and confirm what the contract covers before anyone commits.

How do I know when maintenance is due?

Visits are scheduled in advance, and your contract has renewal reminders three, two and one month before it ends, by email, SMS or WhatsApp. Service reports and visit updates are available in the customer portal.

Can an older lift be connected and monitored?

Yes. The Smartrise IoT Gateway retrofits to conventional and modern lifts of any brand, adding call control and intercom managed from a mobile app, a web app or your control-room BMS over 4G and LAN.
