Our Process
At AF Switchgear, all enquiries are logged with our central Estimating department.The enquiry is put into a system that enables the right people to quote your project depending what the enquiry is.
At this point, someone from the relevant department will:
- Contact the customer for more information if required
- Look to arrange a site survey if required
- Provide a quote (plus a General Arrangement drawing if required)
- If pricing and terms are agreeable, we can provide a Technical Submittal if required
- Once the order is placed, the job will be passed to Engineering for validating
- The customer will be assigned a Lead Engineer for your project and will be the main point of contact to finalise details
- Engineering drawings are submitted to the customer for approval
- Once the drawings are approved (a signature is ALWAYS required) the order will be put into the production schedule and a lead time provided
- IMPORTANT – until the engineering drawings are approved by the customer – materials are not ordered and production does not start
- If a Factory Witness Test (FAT) is required this will be arranged in advance
- Following delivery and installation, we will commission and certify the system to validate the warranty
