1. Who is KME?
Established in 1989, KME has been dedicated to providing the best service to our clients. We believe that quality and best value are crucial in the work we do, as it adds value to our clients. The holistic approach incorporating engineering and strategic sourcing reduce the total cost of ownership for the end user. What is Value? In engineering terms Value is equal to the functionality of the item divided by the price. To increase the value of the product you must reduce the cost or increase the functionality or both. At KME we can achieve both of these scenarios through our holistic approach. This brings long term savings, due to extended equipment life spans, which will far outweigh any short term quick fixes. KME offer quality assured products and services with a proven track record of client satisfaction.
