if they want to extend the factory or system in the future . “ Instead , we believe in delivering quality and that keeping this promise means J-Tec will hopefully be involved again in the future ” he said .
Supplier independent Independence from suppliers is one of J-Tec ’ s key differentiators . “ If we look back 50 years , J-Tec started as a representative of certain brands of component manufacturers . Over the years the projects became more complex and we evolved towards an engineering company ,” commented Nelissen Grade .
“ We knew our competitors and at that time , we made a very clear decision to start designing our own systems and become completely supplier independent in order to offer that additional flexibility .
“ Today , in contrast with many of our competitors , we don ' t produce our own equipment . Most of the equipment in our systems are purchased from third parties , OEM for standard equipment and independent manufacturers for custommade equipment that we design ourselves , but is then manufactured by these third parties .
“ The way we make a difference is by leveraging this strategy . We always focus on finding the real optimal process design for any given application , which will then define which original equipment manufacturer ( OEM ) equipment we will source and where to source it . If it doesn ' t exist or if it needs to be custom made , we will design it and have it fabricated , typically in the region where the project is located .” constructionglobal . com 29
