The main objective of Enstun Engineering procurement main process is to maximize the value of investments on behalf of the owner. Procurement is made according to a process that ensures safe delivery of goods and services at the right price, at the right time and at the right quality. In order for this to go as planned, procurement must be considered during the early stages of projects by setting up a procurement plan (procurement strategy) and by selecting the tender form for individual items of the project from the start.

At the tender stage of projects, Enstun Engineerig  procurement consultants prepare the tender documents, oversee the tendering process and opening of bids. The most qualified contractors/suppliers/OEMs are selected and contracts made. At execution phase, contracts are administrated by procurement consultants at Enstun Engineerig , which means monitoring the work rate and payments, and making sure it is in compliance with contracts. In addition, all difference management of contracts goes through the procurement team in a structured way. At project completion the final settlement is made with the contractor on behalf of the buyer.

ENSTUN Engineering provides equipment procurement specifications or contract documents, which is a desired and recommended practice for large scale mechanical, electrical and construction projects where equipment selection and quality control could be difficult if it is provided by the general contractor.

Our experience includes energy to industrial process such as hydroelectric water-to-wire equipment procurement packages, turn-key substation procurement documents, and individual equipment procurement documents. We have specified turbines,generators,power transformers, medium voltage switchgear, motor control centers, circuit breakers, high voltage disconnect switches, instrument transformers, capacitor banks, prefabricated control and relay enclosures, as well as control and protection panels.

A typical contract document would include a complete set of technical specifications and commercial terms and conditions, along with bidding information and descriptive drawings. In cases where the client does not have a standard front end specification, ENSTUN Engineering uses his own contract draft to serve their clients.
