LOCAL SERVICE
American Services has many offices in every state.
We are 30 minutes from any location.
28 branch offices in Texas alone!
• This provides little, if any travel time.
• This provides immediate response time.
• This provides local inventory.
• This provides a local pride of workmanship.
Brokers usually have only 1 office providing statewide
coverage.
• This contributes to extra travel time and delays to cover remote
ares.
• This requires return trips and they must travel longer distances
for parts.
• Brokers must schedule next day since they may be 2 to 4 hours
away.
• Brokers are a broker only and not knowledgeable of contractor
work standards.
• Brokers do not employ their own field technicians and do not
have the control.
• Brokers rely solely on a network of subcontractors and their
daily schedules.
• Brokers rely on one source for part availability, usually not
the best pricing, and cannot locate from
a National inventory.
• Brokers are administrators and cannot offer technical support.
• Brokers pass on all costs and do not minimize part costs or
are able to enforce labor hour standards.
ASI - A CONTRACTOR

Contractor employing its own company
technicians able to provide direct field servicing.
• Our technicians have Nextel phones to communicate and e-mail

correct workmanship and that the correct services are provided
within in a very technical industry. |
