About service presentations
Building ongoing relationships as a preferred supplier of companies especially franchisors.
This is a presentation of service by UFO; where you and the people who deal with upholstery refits, repairs and on-going maintenance get together and we work out a good scenario where;
- Your upholstery will be correctly fitted to your architect’s specifications
- Material & product details are kept on file. Colours are recorded of materials originally used.
- Your company will use the correct care and maintenance
- Repairs and/or replacements will be done to the original specifications.
- Quality Control & Procedures are recorded.
