Home Control S.a.

What Home Control S.a. does

Home Control S.A. is a Chilean systems integrator founded in 2000 that designs and delivers custom home automation (domótica) and building automation (inmótica) solutions, primarily for high-end residential projects and enterprise, institutional, and government clients in Chile. The customer base spans telecom (Entel), banking (Banco BCI, Euroamerica), education (Universidad de Chile), government (MOP/Moneda Bicentenario), mining (Antofagasta Minerals, Gildemeister/MINVEST), real estate developers (Manquehue, SOCOVESA, Transoceánica, El Bergantín, Centauro), and transportation infrastructure (Santiago Metro Línea 4-4A across 29 stations). Each engagement is delivered as a custom-engineered turnkey project rather than a packaged product.

The company's core technology stack is built on Lutron lighting control platforms (Quantum, HomeWorks, Ecosystem) integrated with Crestron processors (PRO2, CP2E, MP2E, DMPS) for audiovisual and meeting-room control, supplemented by motorized blinds (including Hyperion solar-tracking), Casambi wireless lighting, daylight/occupancy sensors, and architectural luminaire supply from partnered premium brands (XAL, ERCO, TRILUX, HALLA, GLASHÜTTE-LIMBURG, Soraa, FLOS, Meyer, etc.). Projects are designed, programmed, and commissioned in-house by a 40+-person engineering team that develops proprietary custom software when required (e.g., the Antofagasta Minerals energy-management tool). Customer-facing controls are delivered through touch panels, iPads, and mobile devices, with documented outcomes of 50–70% energy savings across commercial deployments.

Home Control operates a sales-led, project-based B2B model. Revenue is derived from professional services (system design, installation, programming, commissioning) plus hardware sales (luminaires and control equipment) delivered as integrated projects. The company works directly with enterprise clients, government entities, and real estate developers, sourced largely through referral relationships with architects and lighting designers rather than direct consumer marketing. Pricing is fully custom and quoted per scope; no public pricing exists. Operations are entirely domestic to Chile, with no disclosed geographic expansion, funding rounds, acquisitions, or institutional ownership. The company is privately held by its three founding partners — Cristóbal Brahm (Gerente General), Cristian Rodriguez (Gerente Comercial), and Esteban Basagoitia (Gte. Adm. y Finanzas) — who established the firm after previously co-founding IntelHome in 1997.
