Sourcing critical, specialist, and hard-to-find engineering parts for operations and maintenance teams — including valves, rotating equipment, motors, instrumentation, and MRO components. We work from specifications, drawings, or existing references to identify suitable options from multiple approved suppliers.
Where specified parts are unavailable, discontinued, or subject to extended lead times, we present suitable alternative options with clear technical reference for client evaluation.
Delivery is coordinated globally under agreed Incoterms as applicable.
For clients managing procurement across multiple suppliers, we provide structured technical and
commercial comparison of quotations, assess alignment with stated specifications, and highlight
alternatives where lead times, pricing, or requirements do not align.
This is not about replacing procurement. It is about strengthening it — by adding a layer of
structured technical and commercial assessment before commitments are made.
Supporting documentation and traceability requirements associated with engineering supply and
procurement. This includes material certificates, OEM-issued test reports, and supporting
documentation as specified by client or project requirements.
Supplied rotating equipment alternatives for an offshore rig. Scope included technical clarification, multi-supplier option comparison, and long lead-time planning to meet operational timelines.
Sourced equivalent industrial components to reduce unplanned downtime. Required identification of suitable alternative components for client review against original equipment specifications.
Supplied suitable hardware for aerospace training use (non-flight-critical). Scope included cost considerations and documentation coordination to meet client requirements.
| Step | What Happens |
|---|---|
| 01 | Client sends an inquiry — often with limited information or urgency |
| 02 | We clarify specifications, application, and operating conditions |
| 03 | We source suitable options from approved upstream suppliers |
| 04 | We present clear alternatives — technical and commercial |
| 05 | Upon selection, we place back-to-back orders and coordinate logistics |
| 06 | Goods delivered or made available per agreed Incoterms |
ET & Ed operates as a supply support and coordination company. We are not a manufacturer, distributor, or certification body. Engagements are selective and project-specific.
A: We focus on specialist and critical engineering parts — not high-volume commodities. Each inquiry is assessed on a case-by-case basis based on technical scope, supplier access, and delivery requirements.
A: Where the original part is available and suitable, yes. Where it is discontinued, on long lead time, or not cost-effective, we source and present functionally equivalent alternatives — clearly identified — for the client to evaluate.
A: That is often how inquiries start. We clarify specifications, application, and operating conditions from whatever information is available, then source accordingly.
A: No. We source from approved upstream suppliers on a project-specific basis. This keeps our operations lean and avoids unnecessary inventory risk.
A: Yes. We support projects and clients across Asia-Pacific and beyond, including offshore operations and international engineering or training environments. Delivery is coordinated per agreed Incoterms.
A: We supply specialist and critical engineering parts across a range of categories — including valves, rotating equipment, motors, pumps, instrumentation, fasteners, seals, and industrial MRO components. Specific capabilities depend on the project and supplier access.
A: It depends on the part, supplier availability, and delivery requirements. We clarify timelines early in the engagement and coordinate logistics to meet agreed schedules.
