The WESCO | Anixter Distinction

WESCO | Anixter is not simply a supplier of product. Whether you are looking for a solution for an application, technical intelligence for finding a product, or want to know the latest technology in the industry, we can put you in touch with sales specialists who are subject matter experts in their field to assist you in making the best decision for specific applications

Turnkey Energy Efficiency Services:
WESCO Energy Solutions (WES), a division of WESCO Distribution. Inc., is an innovative Solution Provider that manages thousands of energy-efficient turnkey retrofit projects across a broad range of industries, more specifically LED Lighting and EV Charging Stations. The team helps optimize energy savings and finds the best rebates and tax incentives available for large single-site locations or clients with multisite locations globally.  By tailoring a solution to meet each location’s specific needs the team will design a combination of products and services for a complete end-to-end turnkey solution. We can cut your utility bill by at least 50%, with turnkey energy-saving solutions through trusted partners. WESCO manages it all, you reap the benefits.

New Construction Lighting Review:
When designing a new building, it's important to understand the specific lighting requirements for all spaces. WESCO, WES and our supplier partners can help customers design an optimal new construction lighting system to save energy, reduce maintenance, inventory, procurement costs, improve productivity and meet environmental standards. WESCO also provides LEED and green strategy expertise to new construction projects.

Data Center Assessment:
Data Center assessments offer an overall health checkup of critical power and cooling systems, catalog existing infrastructure, and identify operational efficiency issues. Recommendations are provided to optimize the existing Data Center based on industry best practices, taking into account future growth projections.

Network Closet Assessment: 
Network and communication closets are dynamic areas within a business. Constant moves, additions, and changes occur and often there may not be the proper equipment in place to streamline configurations to ensure maximum availability. The assessment team examines environmental and critical infrastructure conditions and provides recommendations to increase overall closet effectiveness.

Power Distribution Services:
When clients need scalable, customized solutions for power distribution, this set of services can meet their requirements. WESCO experts design and integrate electrical distribution equipment, low voltage and data assemblies, energy management and lighting control systems into a single Integrated Facility Systems (IFS) assembly. This expertise can extend into retrofit applications when new equipment is preferred or required.  

Power Quality:
Process and administrative computer requirements today demand high quality power with few, if any interruptions in service. With increased costs for electrical service a complete system power factor and power quality audit is a wise solution. WESCO can provide enhanced power quality solutions through supplier partners. WESCO will meet with the customer to discuss how this solution for power quality can improve system efficiency, lower repair and operation costs, and improve equipment life.

Process-Streamlining:
Applying proven concepts such as value stream mapping, cost/time studies, process value assessments, space utilization and error-proofing to existing processes helps customers identify opportunities and potential solutions for quality and productivity improvements. A customized supply chain strategy for addressing existing barriers and waste within a process flow is delivered to customers, helping them achieve their goals and objectives. This can help a school or government agency streamline their internal processes.

Product Standardization:
Using the customer's inventory data, WESCO learns more about the manufacturers currently involved throughout their supply chain to prepare a complete comparative analysis. A dozen different types/styles of an item may be reduced to two or three choices. Details of the study are submitted to the customer for review and ultimate selection of the most appropriate manufacturer to meet their specification and value requirements.

WES holds electrical contractors’ licenses in all states where those licenses are required by state statute. In states where there is no Electrical Contracting license requirement, we maintain required jurisdictional licenses (electrical) where the work is performed. WES has filings with the Secretary of State of each State to perform turnkey electrical services and provide products. In addition, WESCO has sales and use tax licenses in each state as required.

WES uses a network of pre-qualified external partners to perform the labor to install most of the project scopes. A major part of our subcontractor selection process and ongoing recruitment is their safety records and history of safety performance over the past 5 years. WES recognizes that any safety issues with our subcontractor network, are WESCO safety issues, and need to be closely monitored and tracked. Audit/Survey, Measurement & Verification, Design Engineers, Project Management, Procurement Specialists, Safety Engineers, Environment Engineers, Commissioning Team, Control Acceptance Testers, Lighting and Control Training and Rebate Team Specialists are all WES employees. Some of our Installation Teams are subcontractors that we have had long relationships with and follow WES’s Safety and Quality Policy.

Feel free to inquire…”What other Services can WES offer?”

• Installation Services pricing will be negotiated per the terms of the Master Agreement
• Pricing will be determined by the size and scope of the project, on a case-by-case, and be presented to the OMNIA member for evaluation
• WES will not proceed with the project until a “Task Order” agreement is in place
