QCS Maintenance: uptime plus extra value by On-site Expert
"Much credit for the improved grade change performance goes to the expert service representative by connecting with the mill process and process operators. He creates his own solutions proactively, even before the mill people have seen the problem. Our service is very much about personal communications. We rate the service as A+.”
