What is a DDC?

DDC stands for Direct Digital Controls, which are systems used to automate and control a building's heating, ventilation, air conditioning (HVAC), and other mechanical processes. DDC professionals are responsible for installing, programming, maintaining, and troubleshooting these control systems, ensuring efficient and reliable building operations. They often work with sensors, controllers, and software platforms to optimize energy use and occupant comfort. DDC specialists typically collaborate with engineers, facility managers, and technicians in commercial and industrial settings.
