About Elmech
Founded in 2013 by Piotr Szczypulkowski, ElMech Ltd. has built a reputation for trust, quality, and lasting partnerships. From residential and commercial beginnings, the company has grown into a leading provider of Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing, and Fire (MEPF) solutions across commercial, residential, industrial, and institutional sectors.
With a strong focus on design-led engineering, ElMech’s qualified team delivers end-to-end services — from client briefs to compliance audits, commissioning, and maintenance. Using advanced tools like AutoCAD and Revit, the company ensures precision, efficiency, and seamless project delivery.
Elmech’s expertise includes:
- Mechanical systems (ventilation, underfloor heating, district heating, renewable energy, sprinklers)
- Electrical & ELV solutions (fire alarms, CCTV, access control, BMS, lighting)
- Public health & fire safety systems (residential sprinklers, dry risers, advanced fire installations)
The Challenge
Despite its technical expertise, ElMech’s procurement and QA processes were holding the company back.
- Manual paperwork and scattered spreadsheets created errors and delays
- Over-reliance on a few suppliers increased costs and risks
- Lack of structured workflows limited efficiency across multiple projects
With operations scaling, Elmech needed a connected, future-ready solution to streamline procurement, improve supplier diversity, and strengthen project delivery.
