VALUES: Principles That Guide Our Work Behavior


People
We believe the most important assets of the Otis Elevator Company go home at the end
of every workday.

Safety
Millions of people around the world use Otis elevators and escalators every day without
giving safety a second thought. For us, that’s success. We understand that the safe way is
the only way.

Quality
For more than 150 years, quality has made Otis the most trusted name in the industry.

Integrity
We must do the right thing every time, and run our business to the letter and spirit of the
law. By acting ethically and honorably, we win the loyalty of our customers.

SERVICE EXCELLENCE:

Service excellence is more than what we provide, it’s how we think and act. It’s
not just “fixing a problem” or performing routine maintenance, it’s the “smile” in
the voice on the phone, the prompt response to a request and the drive to always
improve. It’s how we work with one another and how we work with our
customers and the riding public. We believe that service excellence begins with
each employee’s commitment to improve the things—no matter how small—that
are in their control. By keeping an “at your service” attitude and striving to exceed
our customers’ and each other’s expectations, we are working hard to become a
benchmark for superior service—not just for elevator companies, but for all
companies worldwide. Every Otis employee is expected to practice Service
Excellence every day, following this 12-point roadmap. Our vision of making
Otis the leader in service excellence must be evident in the actions of every
Otis professional worldwide. Likewise, every employee is an ambassador of Otis
who must help us achieve our mission of being first in service, first in products
and first in performance. Our employees are the Otis brand—the embodiment of
the values we share.

Think safety first. Each employee is responsible for their own safety, the
safety of other workers, and the safety of the riding public. Every employee is
empowered to take any action necessary to eliminate the potential for an accident.
At the beginning of each work session, scan the area for hazards or risk of
accident. At the end of each work session, make sure the job site or workspace is
clean, tidy and safe.

Respond to customer requests promptly. Answer telephone calls in a


standard way and before the third ring: "Otis Elevator Company. (Your name.)
How may I help you?" Reply to every customer phone call or e-mail on the same
day (leaving a message or e-mail if the customer is unavailable).

Visit your customer every time you are in their building. Convey a sense
of urgency in your work and keep your customer fully updated on your progress.
When possible, check in and check out with them daily, giving a brief overview of
the work you have completed. Remember to ask if there is anything else you can
do for them and, above all, to thank them for their business. If the customer is not
there, leave a card with a note.

Deliver what you promise—promptly and unequivocally. By the same


token, do not promise something you know Otis cannot deliver. If circumstances
arise that prevent you from keeping a promise, call the customer immediately.

When a customer complains, remain calm. Listen, empathize and


respond with a can-do attitude. Take ownership of the complaint and work to
resolve it promptly. Remember that every complaint contains an opportunity to
exceed the customer’s expectations and transform a negative experience into a
positive one.

Be prepared when going into a customer meeting. Conclude each


meeting with a summary of action items. Remember: If a customer asks you for
something, you own that request. Keep track of open action items until the request
is fulfilled—and the customer is fully delighted.

Think of yourself as an extension of the customer’s staff in every


building you work in. Be your customer’s eyes and ears. Where appropriate,
offer suggestions that will help make them more successful.

Remember that you are always on view. Adopt a pleasant and constructive
attitude. A smile goes a long way toward maintaining a positive image. Take pride
in your appearance. Take pride in your work. Take pride in your company.

Ask yourself: “What does the customer want?” Then work to exceed those
expectations. Follow up on every job. Never assume that any problem has been
fixed.

We are responsible for our own learning and self-development. By


expanding our knowledge and skills, we enhance our ability to help both Otis and
our customers.

Be uncompromising on work quality. Never pass along errors. Apply ACE


tools to identify the root cause of a problem, then work to eliminate it.

At Otis, we succeed or fail as a team. It’s up to you to create a work


environment where the needs of customers are met promptly by leveraging Otis’
global network of knowledge and experience.

PRODUCTS & SERVICES

Moving people safely is what we do best. As the largest manufacturer and service
provider of elevators, escalators and moving walkways, Otis is recognized the world over
for helping people travel up, down and from place to place—conveniently and safely.

• Elevators

Buildings keep rising…so we rise to the challenge. As building technology changes and
progresses, our elevator technology does the same. Otis has a long history of meeting
new challenges with ongoing innovation. While there is a wide range of elevators to fit
every need, they fall under three basic types: gearless traction, geared traction and
machine-roomless.

• Escalators and moving walkways:


More than 100 years later, “moving stairs” still give people a convenient lift. Otis
wrote history with the introduction of the escalator in 1899. Today, we continue to
improve the product through ongoing innovation. Similarly, Otis’ moving walkways offer
safety, reliability and efficiency for both commercial and public applications.

Escalators and moving walkways are commonplace


in airports, transit systems and shopping centers and
offer an array of options.

• Services:
Service comes first at Otis. To us, that means developing new products that meet our
customers’ needs and challenges; providing reliable maintenance; and modernizing
systems to keep pace with a building’s changing face and function. In all areas of service,
Otis is committed to inspiring total customer confidence.
Because each customer defines service differently, our approach to satisfying customer
needs is both broad-based and personalized. With the world’s largest network of branch
offices and service centers, our staff provides service 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
This global network ensures rapid response and minimal downtime.

Here are some of the ways we put service first for our customers.

1. Otis Maintenance Solutions


Otis offers a variety of maintenance programs and
building support systems to fit customers’ needs and
equipment types. We have standardized work practices
around the world and can tailor a maintenance program
specifically to the environment. Ultimately, the right
maintenance at the right time extends the life of the
equipment and protects the owner’s investment.

2. OTISLINE® Communications Center


No matter where they are in the world, Otis customers
can call OTISLINE service when they have an elevator
or escalator problem. Within minutes, a customer
service representative can have a mechanic on the way
to their building. More than 1,000 trained service
professionals are on call to ensure a prompt,
professional response.

3. REM® Remote Elevator Monitoring


Otis developed the REM system to optimize elevator
performance and minimize elevator downtime. It is a
sophisticated interconnected system of sensors,
monitors, circuits, hardware and software to collect,
record, analyze and communicate data about elevator
operations 24/7. If the REM system detects a problem, it
analyzes and diagnoses the cause and location, then
makes the service call and helps an Otis mechanic
identify the component causing the problem.

4. EMS Panorama™

The Web-based EMS Panorama system enables building staff


to monitor, control, report on and manage a full range of
operation-critical functions from any computer with an Internet
connection. Users can monitor the status of up to 30 groups of
elevators, escalators and moving walkways, looking at a single
building or an entire airport, college campus or medical center.
Because the EMS Panorama system offers comprehensive, real-
time data that shows building managers the full picture, they are
able to respond quickly to passengers’ needs and make
informed decisions about equipment operations with greater
certainty than ever before.

5. .Innovations

We are always looking for new solutions. Since Elisha Otis invented his safety elevator
in 1852, we have searched tirelessly for ways to improve the passenger experience. Our
