Control Sources specializes in the engineering, programming, and installation of Building Automation Systems (BAS) and Automatic Temperature Controls (ATC). As an authorized Schneider Electric Representative for the Baltimore metropolitan area, Control Sources is committed to being the premier temperature controls provider in the local market. We build relationships with our customers based upon mutual trust and respect. Our employees are honest, competent and self-motivated to deliver true value to our customers at all times. Control Sources has been a registered small-business in Maryland for over 20 years. When Mike Palla and his partners (who have since sold their stake) left their respective companies to create Control Sources, they chose to partner with Siemens because of the open protocol (Lon) the controls utilized. During its time with Siemens, Control Sources was awarded the Platinum Achievement award (among others) for being an “ultimate” partner. After two years with Siemens, Control Sources was given the opportunity to partner with Andover. Considering Andover’s robust system and Control Sources’ clients (such as North Arundel Hospital), the decision was made to partner with Andover in order to provide a more comprehensive user interface to high profile clients. During this time Control Sources also added Steafa to its repertoire so that smaller clients, who still needed a graphical interface, could be offered a more cost-effective option. Around 2001 Steafa inherited a Tridium operating system; Control Sources has been certified and proficient in Tridium programming since this time. After great success with both the Andover and Steafa lines (Control Sources was presented with multiple awards including, but not limited to, the President’s Circle Award for outstanding growth) Control Sources partnered with Schneider Electric, who purchased Andover. Over the years Schneider Electric has perfected its control system; given its cost effectiveness it can be utilized for smaller projects with tight budgets and because of its robustness it can be utilized for high profile and complex control systems. Because of the versatility Schneider “Ecostruxure” provides, Control Sources leads with this system. Control Sources’ experience with various manufacturers systems allows for the specialized solutions that customers require in the evolving world of BAS. Control Sources has installed and/or provides service to over 80 schools across Montgomery County, PG County, Howard County, Baltimore City, Baltimore County, and Anne Arundel County. Additionally, Control Sources has clientele in the pharmaceutical laboratory, Archdiocese of Baltimore, private school, and commercial markets.
