Region watch: why comparative projects cluster
Clusters reduce integration cost before they reduce hardware cost.
Cost driver
Local integrators, spare-part stock and trained operators shorten MTTR more than a lower unit price does.
Evidence to request
Ask for two comparable projects within 200 km and interview one of them.
What to avoid
Do not select a supplier on the strength of a demo floor alone.
