About Us
Vision:
To be a world-class provider of engineered control systems, fabricated control panels and related services. We dedicate ourselves to technical excellence, cost consciousness, innovation and continuous improvement.
Mission:

We, the employees of GCS, will strive to provide quality and excellence in our services, a commitment to safety and training for all our employees, and endeavor to provide prompt courteous service for all of our customers, subcontractors, suppliers and vendors. We value community involvement and emphasize good corporate citizenship.

Brief History:
GCS began building control system panels and servicing instrumentation & controls equipment for several municipal and OEM clients in the Albany, NY area in 1996. Our services were expanded to include international crating and kitting of equipment for OEM suppliers as our businesses expanded. In 2005 GCS began what has turned out to be a long-term relationship with SUNY Polytechnic Institute in supporting cleanroom construction projects at the various campuses across Upstate NY. GCS became certified by the Control System Integrators Association (CSIA) in 2013 with implementing industry best-practices within the operation. In 2014 we continued to grow our services with an emphasis on custom-built machines and contract manufacturing services. In 2017 we furthered our operational excellence with an ISO-9001:2015 certified quality management system.
