Overview
Reliability and performance of power cables have become major concerns for end users due to the growing complexity of a global supply chain along with technological, regulatory, risk and cost considerations. However, many organizations lack internal bandwidth for conducting inspections and stringent oversight of their power cable suppliers even though quality cables are a vital part of a well-functioning infrastructure.
We provide electric utilities, renewable integrators and Engineering, Procurement and Construction Contractors (EPCs) with customizable solutions for performance and compliance for medium voltage cables. You can access our global engineers and inspection and audit specialists, and in-depth knowledge of manufacturing, inspection and auditing. We have the capabilities to use your specifications and conformance criteria or our criteria to evaluate the compliance of your supplier’s cable to meet specifications and application.
Utility supply chain management efforts are evolving to focus on more than traditional cost reduction and efficiency improvements. Utilities, EPCs and other users are now working actively to contain costs, assure supply and manage risks.
