02

Design for value and de-risk with certifications.

Grid connection constraints, structural limitations, electrical upgrades, roof safety, product quality? There's a lot of risks and room for error.

Enhars CEC accredited engineering and electrical team value engineer your system, and ensure safe, compliant, best practice designs and approvals to de-risk your project.

03

High-quality and cost-effective procurement.

A lack of detail in the procurement process leads to project cost variations, poor quality products and non-compliant sub-optimal installations.

Enhar provides clear site specific designs, briefs and specifications to reduce risks and variation claims, ensuring comparable tender submissions have optimal solutions based on technical and financial constraints.

Products have a specified warranty/defect liability periods, product quality, accredited experienced suppliers and favourable contractual requirements, with robust evaluation of submissions, and clear recommendations on preferred solutions.
