A large number of equipment manufacturers are operating on the current market. In the face of fierce com-petition, the question of how to choose from all this variety the most reliable supplier, cooperation with which will have minimal risks, becomes acute. When quality, delivery time and price are the same for most equipment suppliers, the determining factors of selection become: service, quality of technical sup-port, attitude of the supplier and time to answer various questions and requests for assistance, training, after-sales service, the ability to order equipment from the warehouse, etc., in a word, an individual approach and the desire of the equipment supplier to make the client’s life a little easier.
