Hot Listing
Building Automation Company, 20+ Years, Owner retiring
Business Description
Authorized Partner of Leading BAS Manufacturer serving CNY/WNY
Status Update: The business was recently under a signed LOI with a qualified buyer, but that party has deferred their timeline until spring 2026. As a result, the business is once again fully available to the market.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a highly reputable Building Automation Systems (BAS) contractor serving Central and Western New York and Northern Pennsylvania. The company is an authorized partner of a leading BACnet based controls manufacturer and has built a rock solid foundation over two decades through technical expertise, outstanding service, and long term client relationships.
The company’s portfolio spans multiple high-demand verticals, including:
Healthcare: Extensive experience with hospital environments, including specialized work for Veterans Affairs Medical Centers (VA hospitals), ensuring compliance with federal standards and facility wide integration.
Higher Education: Ongoing projects and retrofit work at SUNY campuses and regional colleges, where energy efficiency, controls integration, and phased implementation are critical.
K-12 Education: Longstanding relationships with multiple school districts supported by capital improvement cycles and strong ties to NYSED funded projects.
Public Sector & Municipalities: A trusted vendor for towns, counties, and state funded facilities, particularly where prevailing wage and compliance expertise is required.
Commercial & Industrial Facilities: Building automation solutions for office buildings, manufacturing plants, and mixed use developments.
Direct negotiated private projects, particularly for commercial clients and property managers seeking high quality controls retrofits and system upgrades without formal bidding cycles.
In addition to its project backlog, the business generates consistent recurring revenue through multi year service contracts and support agreements. The company is lean, profitable, and staffed with a skilled team of engineers and BAS technicians. The owner is approaching retirement and is willing to assist with a transition period, including technical handoff, customer introductions, and seller financing for qualified buyers.
This opportunity is well suited for a strategic buyer, regional contractor, or private equity investor seeking to expand into a highly defensible, compliance driven market with strong fundamentals and recurring income.

About the Business
- Years in Operation
- 23
- Employees
- 4
- Facilities & Assets
- The business operates from a well-maintained commercial facility owned by the seller and leased to the company at a reasonable, negotiable rate. The facility includes office and warehouse space suitable for continued operations, though the business can be relocated if desired.
Included in the sale are all essential operational assets:
Service vehicles
Technician tools and test equipment
Office infrastructure (IT systems, computers, desks, and furnishings)
An impressive, organized inventory of BAS controllers, sensors, and related control components - Market Outlook / Competition
- The company operates in a growing and technically specialized segment of the commercial HVAC industry, with a strong presence across Central/Western New York and Northern Pennsylvania. Several major campuses and institutions are specifically specified for the company’s BAS platform, creating a defensible position and recurring project flow.
- Opportunities for Growth
- Significant growth potential exists, particularly, the Buffalo market, where the company currently has only a minimal presence. With demographics and infrastructure spending on par with Syracuse and Rochester combined, Buffalo represents an untapped opportunity that could potentially double revenue with the right investment. Expansion into this region would require additional capital, staffing, and focused business development efforts, but the technical capabilities, manufacturer support, and operational systems are already in place to support scaling.
