Electrical Installation & Servicing

What Electrical Installation & Servicing does

Electrical Installation & Servicing (EIS) is a privately held New Zealand industrial electrical and engineering services firm headquartered in Invercargill with a regional office in Christchurch. Founded in 1996, the company delivers automation, electrical installation, machine safety, and digital transformation services to industrial sector businesses across energy, water and wastewater, smelting, mining, agribusiness, manufacturing, and food and dairy processing. Its named enterprise customers include NZAS, Synlait Milk, Fonterra, Ballance Agri-Nutrients, Meridian Energy, Oceana Gold, Tetra Pak, Stolthaven Terminals, and Downer NZ.

EIS's core technology footprint rests on system integrator partnerships with Rockwell Automation, Schneider Electric, Siemens, Ignition (Inductive Automation), and OMRON, on top of which it layers in-house capabilities including electrical engineering design, motor control centre fabrication, machine safety assessment, and SIRI-based Industry 4.0 digital blueprinting. The firm also distributes a proprietary hardware product, the MAUS Stixx PRO fire suppression family (V1, PRO 5, PRO 10 variants), which uses a patented non-toxic potassium formula for compact, automatic fire suppression in electrical enclosures. Operational credentials include TÜV Nord CMSE, SGS-TÜV-Saar CFSAE, SIRI assessor certification, IMPAQ PREQUAL, and SiteWise Gold health and safety prequalification, supported by a 13-year LTI-free safety record achieved in 2014.

The business model is primarily project-based professional services delivered through direct enterprise engagement from offices in Southland and Canterbury, with hardware revenue from the MAUS Stixx PRO line and advisory revenue from SIRI assessments as secondary streams. Go-to-market is enterprise field sales targeting long-term industrial clients across the South Island of New Zealand, supported by an ecosystem of vendor partnerships and Master Electricians industry association membership. Management is closely held, with Managing Director Leonard Wiegersma having been a shareholder and director since 2004.
