The Challenge

A local company supplying new and refurbished transformers approached us in need of specialized terminations and bushings that could be sourced quickly and locally in Perth. Their challenge was finding high-quality components readily available to meet their specific project requirements within tight timelines.

The solution

To address the challenge, ETC Australia worked closely with the client to identify critical products with long lead times. To ensure immediate availability, we established local stock of 11, 22, and 33kV Type B and C bushings, test rods, and essential accessories. This proactive approach enabled the client to service their customers efficiently and meet their project timelines without delays.

The Outcome

As a result, we have built a strong and trusted partnership in a short period. The availability of locally stocked products has significantly reduced turnaround times, enabling the client to deliver to their customers swiftly. Projects that were previously delayed by 10 to 20 weeks are now completed without interruptions, demonstrating the tangible benefits of our tailored stocking solution.
