 Once
our Power Rite Asia representatives have visited and
audited potential suppliers in Asia, they will submit
their quotations to our headquarters in New Brunswick.
In addition to the quotation, they also submit a copy
of their supplier audit, along with their recommendations.
Once our New Brunswick office has evaluated all of
the proposals from Asia, we make a decision as to which
factory offers the best option for the project. The
decision is based on the results of the audits, as well
as pricing. Quality is the most heavily weighed factor
in the decision making process.
When a customer evaluates
a proposal from Power Rite, they should consider the
following:
- Power Rite buys millions of dollars from our supplier
partners in Asia. This affords us tremendous leverage
and therefore our pricing is often lower than pricing
the customer might be quoted if they contacted Asia
directly.
- Power Rite will quote all tooling charges separately
from the unit price, unless otherwise instructed by
the customer.
- Power Rite often offers flexible payment options
for those customers that are credit worthy.
- The customer purchases directly from Power Rite,
a U.S. company. This reduces risk exponentially compared
to purchasing from a Asian company.
- Power Rite will take care of all duties, customs
charges, customs clearance, ocean freight, etc. There
are no surprise charges often experienced when trying
to import on your own.
- If a U.S. manufacturer tries to deal direct with
a Asian factory and has problems, they often have
no recourse. Because of the volume of business we
do with our Asian suppliers, we have tremendous
leverage to get any possible problems resolved quickly
and efficiently.
