Pivotal Point
Credit Crunch?
Feeling the effects of the so called “credit crunch” and economic slow down?
Is your company considering deferring capital investment until things pick up?
Don’t!
You could be missing a real opportunity to gain an advantage over your competitors and get better value for money in the process. Not only will your increased or improved facilities be on line when the economy picks up but you will also benefit from:
- Shorter delivery times for major equipment
- Keener prices
- Greater choice in services suppliers
More importantly, the costs of the notoriously difficult to estimate, design and installation services tend to be market driven so there can be significant savings in this area which can be a major proportion of project costs.
For more details on these issues, please see this paper which we presented in 2001.
