The HECO Process

 

Our simple approach to complex issues

HECO helps Midwest manufacturers, utility companies, and converters within a wide variety of markets that value “quality and reliability” over “price and temporary solutions.”

Our customers trust us to ask the right questions and do what’s right for them. They appreciate our honesty, embrace our innovative approach, and share our thought process as a partner, not just a supplier.
Through a mix of Repair, Product Sales, Field Service, Predictive, and Equipment Management, we help customers do three things better:

1. See what’s going on.

2. Get rid of the issue.

3. Stop the issue from happening again.

Doing that provides our customers peace of mind and confidence that their motors and equipment will operate effectively and have longevity and reduced total cost of ownership.

The HECO Process resolves complex issues without frustrating and costly rounds of trial and error. By educating ourselves and all stakeholders, we simply deliver results.
