Expediting is a fundamental element of any project. It enables project objectives to be achieved. At Hi-Teq we clearly identify the Expediting component of the project because it relates to project timelines, project objectives and ultimate project success. As such, we believe that every project procurement plan requires a dedicated expediting team. This is important because it saves the client from incurring unnecessary costs. With a consolidated expeditor’s network, HITEQ can manage all client requirements to ensure proper quality and on-time delivery of project equipment. Our personnel are capable of: managing a broad spectrum of expediting Services, tracking deadlines and being proactive in order to avoid any delay. We have our own Internal Expediting and Reporting Procedure; however in an effort to meet the project needs of our client, we are accustomed to using client Expediting and Reporting Procedures. Expediting activities begin soon after the Purchase Order is issued. This is a beneficial step in the prevention of slippages and/or delays.
