A pump control and management system for monitoring and controlling sump pumps as well as providing supplemental controls and alarms. The pump control and management system includes a sump pump, a level sensing assembly, a control assembly, and at least one local sensor. The sump pump is designed for pumping water out of a sump pit. The level sensing assembly is preferably positioned within the sump pit for detecting a level of water in the sump pit. The control assembly is electrically coupled between an electrical service connection and the sump pump. The control assembly monitors electrical current drawn by the sump pump. The control assembly is also operationally coupled to the level sensing assembly. The control assembly activates the sump pump when the level sensing assembly signals that water in the sump pit has reached a predetermined level.
