Power and Cooling Equipment Procurement

 

Equipment lead times for major equipment for construction projects are the number one pain point for contractors and government. Centremis’ AEP solution delivers critical equipment earlier, and at less cost. Centremis sources the equipment during the design phase, when equipment specifications are mature, to ensure long lead equipment is manufactured and delivered sooner, and through our direct-to-manufacturer procurement it is at less cost. A comparison of the typical model versus Centremis’ AEP solution reflects the equipment, most always on the critical path, can be on site approximately one year earlier.
