Procurement

The proper procurement of equipment and materials can result in vast savings throughout a project. Besides the lower initial cost of the items purchased the impact to the schedule and the ability to produce better designs can generate even greater savings. Designing with certified drawings assures that there is less field rework during the construction phase.
