Saab Seaeye, is a world leading provider of electrical remotely operated vehicles (ROVs), with their facilitiesin the UK . They began their partnership with DeRegt in 2020. During the initial months of their collaboration, Saab Seaeye shared specifications with DeRegt and expressed their desire to purchase cables in long lengths while also receiving short lengths on call-off orders within a few weeks.
Being able to quickly deliver short cable lengths is essential for Saab Seaeye.The ROV setup system requiring interchanging the cable due to the environmental conditions that the cable is used under. This causes the cables to wear down quickly.
With over 30 years of experience, Saab Seaeye has built an after-sales market where customers rely on prompt assistance. Waiting for months for a newly manufactured cable to be delivered is not an option for customers.
Based on market knowledge resulting in a forecast it is possible to order longer lengths and therefore keep the costs and delivery times down for the call-off lengths.
Working with call-off orders has several benefits:
- You can react faster if something breaks
- You save costs by producing long cables, while short cables are needed
- Quick availability of new cables
