Andritz Hydro awarded E. VAN WINGEN NV the top supplier A-grade
ANDRITZ HYDRO, the Austria based global supplier of electro-mechanical systems and services ("water to wire") for hydropower plants and one of the leaders in the world market for hydraulic power generation, has awarded E. VAN WINGEN NV the top supplier A-grade for on-time performance and compliance rate.
Under its framework agreement (from 2003) with Andritz Hydro, EVW has been delivering diesel generating sets for their projects worldwide with references in Egypt, Peru, Iceland, Chile, Philippines, Costa Rica, Germany, Italy, Ethiopia, Greece, Turkey, Bulgaria, Romania, Georgia, Albania, Kenya, Austria and more to come. EVW supplies the custom manufactured emergency diesel generators and control panels in compliance with strict specifications and deadlines. The turnkey concept allows for plug-in installation, followed by commissioning and technical training on site by EVW project managers. In view of service and maintenance EVW has off-the-shelf availability of spare parts to support the local operators of the gen-sets.
Andritz Hydro are aware that project management, ISO certified quality engineering, punctuality and flexibility are the keys to a successful and reliable supplier/customer relationship that lasts for many years. EVW's approach to customer expectations is not to deliver a gen-set but to supply a comprehensive solution. EVW is proud with this recognition which is a further encouragement to continue on the path of quality, sustainability and customer satisfaction.
The framework agreement between Andritz Hydro and EVW is highly similar in nature to the framework agreement with Belgium's leading telecom operator. The third renewal of this contract by Belgacom, managing some 400 datacenters and substations equipped with stand-by generating sets in Belgium, demonstrates how a major market player's definition of reliable power back-up is translated into convincing technology solutions by EVW.
