When you think of getting the least expensive solution provider, the biggest mistake we see is hiring the lowest bidder for these reasons:
THE COST OF THE FIX
Fixing a problem is generally much more expensive than doing it right the first time.
THE COST OF UN-SAFE EQUIPMENT
If equipment is not safe, injuries and death can cost your company unimaginably.
THE COST OF TIME
What's the cost of taking twice as long to do the job? Production loss...
THE COST OF UNEXPECTED EXPENSES
Not understanding the full scope of the project for inexperienced companies means they will have to re-quote you after winning the job! Ouch
THE COST OF INEFFICIENT EQUIPMENT (OVER TIME)
If your final product works inefficiently, you may be losing time and money throughout the life of operation
