"Helping us move projects forward"
With supply chain issues increasingly affecting our business, PLC Direct has been there for us to supply the PLC products we need, when we need it. If they don't have it readily available, they find it and provide it quickly and reliably. This has helped us move forward with several projects that would have otherwise taken us many, many months to complete.
