Project Direct

WHAT IS PROJECTS DIRECT AT MH?

A method to streamline the project bidding process by providing a single point of contact for all of your lighting and lighting control project bid requests.

WHY IS PROJECTS DIRECT AT MH IMPORTANT?

The lighting and lighting control industries are changing. New technologies are being introduced at a rapid pace, and project requirements are more complex than ever before. On top of that, today’s construction environment has created very compressed time schedules where all stakeholders are presented with less time to produce increasingly more difficult project designs. Because of these rapid technological changes, increased project complexity, and shortened timelines, many projects end up suffering due to bids that are designed around a narrative approach rather than hard designs. To ensure optimal results, more time is needed at the bid stage than in the past. Yet, those who must produce detailed project bids often receive bid requests just a few days before they are due. In many cases, this simply doesn’t allow enough time to adequately prepare the complex bids for labor or materials within the allotted time frame. This can lead to project delays downstream while information is clarified and adjustments are made. Projects Direct at MH will solve these problems.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF PROJECTS DIRECT AT MH?

  • By sending project bid requests directly to us at the same time as other vendors, we can start preparing the bid right away versus waiting for your request to be forwarded to us several days after your original request.
  • We are able to start working with all stakeholders several days in advance of the bid deadline, allowing for more detailed bids, and bills of material. This provides contractors with the information they need to labor projects more accurately.
  • By getting an earlier jump on these projects, downstream project delays resulting from necessary clarification can be reduced.
  • Today’s lighting and lighting control systems require agents to sift through significantly more detailed information than in the past. By receiving the bid requirements earlier in the process, we are able to execute the necessary preparation to ensure that our submitted bid is as accurate and detailed as possible.
