The company supports B2B purchasing with warehouses, request-a-quote services, technical resources (document library, charts & formulas), and customer account features for order history and pricing.

📋 Description

• Manage complex quotations for large and medium-voltage motors, drives, and major projects from initial RFQ through order handoff. • Support inside and outside sales teams with motor selection, application questions, specifications, and technical problem-solving. • Review RFQs, specifications, bid packages, drawings, nameplates, and existing equipment information to determine appropriate solutions. • Select replacements for obsolete motors and equipment, including frame upgrades, dimensional evaluations, and manufacturer substitutions. • Cross-reference products between manufacturers and identify technically appropriate alternatives. • Evaluate horsepower, speed, voltage, frequency, enclosure and cooling method, bearings, thrust, service factor, starting requirements, hazardous locations, mounting, and other application considerations. • Specify accessories and instrumentation including space heaters, RTDs, vibration sensors, bearing temperature devices, and related options. • Support medium-voltage motor opportunities and provide drive application support. • Work directly with manufacturers to obtain selections, pricing, drawings, lead times, and technical clarification. • Identify specification exceptions, deviations, alternatives, and potential application issues before proposals are submitted. • Develop polished, professional quote packages presenting the proposed solution, scope of supply, technical data, drawings, options, exceptions, and supporting information. • Manage quotation revisions and technical clarifications as projects develop. • Work directly with customers when technical involvement can help define an application or advance an opportunity.
