Deliver & Support
On-time delivery with full documentation package. Ongoing program support available.
Expedited Panel Manufacturing
Unplanned shutdowns, accelerated commissioning schedules, and last-minute engineering changes don't wait for standard lead times. Outsourced Controls operates three production shifts, seven days a week — giving our team the capacity to compress manufacturing timelines without relaxing a single quality or UL 508A compliance requirement.
When an expedited order is accepted, we activate a coordinated response: priority queue placement, authorized overtime across all three shifts, and drop-ship procurement to source components overnight or same-day from authorized distributors. Your panel moves to the front of the line — and stays there until it ships.
- Priority queue placement — your order moves to the front
- 3-shift, 7-day production: our facility never goes dark
- Authorized overtime across all shifts to meet your deadline
- Drop-ship procurement: overnight and same-day parts sourcing from authorized distributors
- Expedited freight coordination for final delivery
- Full UL 508A documentation and QMS buy-off — no shortcuts
3-Shift, 7-Day Operation
Our production floor runs around the clock. Day shift, swing shift, and night shift rotate continuously — so your panel is being built while your competitors' shops are closed.
Drop-Ship Component Procurement
We maintain relationships with authorized Allen-Bradley, Siemens, and Schneider distributors who can fulfill overnight and same-day orders. Expedited parts costs are passed through transparently with full receipts.
Expedited Freight Coordination
We coordinate with freight carriers to arrange next-day, same-day, or white-glove delivery to your job site. Drop-shipping direct to the installation address is available on request.
Zero Compromise on Quality
Expedited timelines never override our QMS. Every panel — regardless of schedule — receives a full documented buy-off, functional I/O test, and signed FAT report before it leaves our facility.
