A model of efficiency, a Houston-based pipe bending company recently completed an emergency power plant restoration in a mere five hours after receiving firm order confirmation.
Bendco Houston Pipe Benders (HPB) proved itself with this time-sensitive project that began with a late Wednesday afternoon inquiry. Recognizing the urgency, Bendco HPB’s estimation team sprang into action. Amanda Molina, the director of estimating, worked the quote into the evening to precisely match the customer’s specifications. By Thursday morning, the purchase order was secured and materials were inbound.
Friday morning, Bendco HPB operators arrived before standard operating hours to finish preparations in order to be ready to begin the bending process when the inspector arrived. The quality control operator, understanding the narrow timeline, was on standby at the workstation, ready to inspect the finished product as soon as the bend was completed. The bend was approved by the inspector and ready for immediate shipment. The customer was notified and within hours the product was en route to the airport for express delivery to its destination. This underscores Bendco HPB’s dedication to delivering exceptional results under tight deadlines.
