Heard about a European investigation into collusion in elevator installations and service industry & lawsuits filed in NY City by apartment owners for the same thing. Has anyone heard of this going on in other cities in the US? John

there was an actual article in elevator world early part of this year that talked about the collusion in europe. I believe that it happens a lot more than we know. i guess that collusion can also exist when two ore more companies owned by the same person is bidding on the same project. so if you consider this to be collusion that it definitly happens a lot more.
