For the past several years, we’ve written articles on the topic of switchgear maintenance and planning for inevitable switchgear failure. The global supply chain issues encountered by all industries since the COVID-19 pandemic have created lead times of weeks to a year or more for many critical switchgear components. We’re beginning to see some signs of supply chain pressures lifting, but it’s likely to be a very slow process.
In light of this, Agilix Solutions has worked with some of our most trusted manufacturer partners to better position us to meet your needs more quickly. In this article, we highlight the proactive steps we’ve taken to meet your needs efficiently and effectively.
